I'm at a loss for words. We are dealing with a golem or something. Not to mention his frequent stalling is killing his research for example. Yet we have no word from him and one may think he doesn't mind the stalls at all!
Eh, now I turned out somewhat cold. But what can we do, really? Pull out the ban-hammer?

I mean I could certainly understand a guy who does not post on forums too much and simply isn't that much talkative, but common sense says if I stall frequently I will have a reason for it that I will share with the other players and/or ask for a pause or announce a need for a sub or pretty much any solution would be viable at this point, really. Right now, I have suspicions his keyboard might be broken or something.

I hope he didn't break it in half back in the day where he was being trollfaced by the last remnants of Marignon. One month of absence on this forum, give a few days.
Damn, now I was more cold than before, wasn't I?

It seems like he has lost interest in the game. I say we find him a sub.

If we can't sub him out, then set him to CPU. It would do better than staling.

Anaconda · #3 November 22nd, 2011, 02:05 PM

we could start looking for a sub?

jimbojones1971 · #4 November 23rd, 2011, 04:52 AM

I'll put up a post for a sub. If no-one responds, I suspect it will then be AI time.

jimbojones1971 · #5 November 23rd, 2011, 07:01 PM

Not a lot of interest in the sub so far, the thread can be found here:

Pan Sub Wanted

Pan has now staled three times in a row, with no indication that he has any interest in ever returning to the game. If we need to extend the turn again this time, and a sub has not come forward, I think we should turn him AI.

I'm not a newbie but if you'd like I can temp sub in order to give you more time to find a permanent replacement.

At this stage, I think we would gratefully accept any sub (others feel free to correct me if you have a different view).

Pan is in a fairly average position, so your extra experience would likely be useful in equalising their situation.

Thanks for volunteering :-) If no-one objects, we can organise to get the turn forwarded on to you and give you a suitable extension so that you can work out what is going on.

No Objection here, it appears that the Peoples Republic will have to take into account a more active Northern Neighbour.

Lung Drago · #9 November 24th, 2011, 03:30 PM

No objections here either, Pangaea has some catching up to do. Valerius, PM me or/and jimbojones your email then.

I wonder whether Heinrich will raise from the dead and go here all raging what happened once we'll change the email

Valerius · #10 November 24th, 2011, 03:47 PM

Ok, I'll send over my email address. I've been enjoying reading some of the previous posts in this thread.

It appears Pangaea could take an example from their neighbors to the south and spend a little less time spent partying and a little more time in the lab.

Please let me know if anyone has diplomatic agreements with Pan.
