Ulm staled the past two turns, missing all of the critical initial clashes of the war. Not a very good sign. Is the game done?

[Mightypeon]

I have no idea why llamaserve is behaving like that....

[RonD]

Are you saying that you sent in turns, but the server ignored them? Did you get the "turn received" emails? If so, that's a pretty serious problem. The game's status page never showed you as having submitted a turn.

[Mightypeon]

No, I delayed the game but it did not delay.

[RonD]

How would you like to handle it? Should we discuss a rollback?

[Mightypeon]

That would be usefull, I did not look at the actual new turn yet.
The last turn I should have gotten in was the one in which everyone largely retreated from my territory.

[RonD]

I'm not quite sure if you are asking for a 1-turn or 2-turn rollback.

I could probably support a 1-turn rollback - but not 2 turns. Not only would that be playing with fire (I'm guessing there would be a pretty significant risk that the whole game would explode in some way), but I put an awful lot of time into preparing those turns, and I really do not want to have to recreate it all. If we just roll back to make it turn 55 again, I can just resubmit my existing .2h file.

[Mightypeon]

1 turn, 2 turn is playing with total and utter fire.

[RonD]

I am OK with a 1-turn rollback. I think every remaining major power ought to be able to veto the rollback, so you should pm Gurthang to make sure he sees this.

[Gurthang]

I just read the discussion. I dislike rollbacks but I won't object to one, even if there was an important battle (where I was duly trashed) in 77 this turn, and even if I just sent turn 56. Shortly, I will accept your decisions.

However, I will be abroad this weekend. Whatever your decision I will try to do my turn tomorrow afternoon, but in case I am unable to, next hosting should be set at Monday evening.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
