AreaOfEffect,

Wow. Your karma must be bad. Did you kick a puppy or something?

Best wishes,
Steve

Seems like mystery players are bizarrely common. I had one too in a game I hosted a while ago.

Since no one seems to mind, I guess we'll continue the game as is.

Props to you, mattyburn7... I've seen before that you're a really excellent sport when it comes to adversity and helping out, but this is particularly excellent of you. Having your nation hijacked, and then taking it over with a mystery pretender build is basically like subbing from turn 1. I wouldn't have any interest in doing that, and I give you a lot of credit for being willing to do so in the interest of keeping the game moving.

Extended the hosting interval to 28 hours. A few extra hours beyond a day always seems to help.

My pleasure. The Pretender and start is different than I would have taken but Its a fair tradeoff (Awake Pretender and some lower scales vs. dormant and higher). Yea, I didn't have the heart to put a 2nd restart on folks.

Happy Hunting!

I just see "Enable Private Messaging", now it's enable (and msn/emese too).

Hmm, the map is certainly extremely crowded. I've already met 3 nations so far. I wonder if the rest of the map is equally crowded, or if there's huge swathes of empty space somewhere.

I've only found 1 other nation so far, but I'm so deep in the mountains I haven't found a single province with a pop of over 5000 yet. Kind of a drag for such a blood heavy nation. I'm adapting though.

That could be the case. I will never claim this game to be fair. My only hope is that its fun.

As it is, with different skill levels all around, some people will naturally be better off then others simply based on the neighbors they have. It still doesn't mean we can predict the outcome of this game until its over. Then, and only then, will hindsight show how natural it was that the winner won.
