Wait the hosting interval were on 48 hours. Weird.

This thread needs more posts, so here I present my assessment of the situation!

It's turn 40. We are soon approaching the endgame and there are still 7 players left. All nations left still have a shot for godhood, though some are in better shape than others.

Leader - Ermor
It's pretty clear that Ermor has the best situation. Ermor is #1 in nearly all categories, and has nearly double research done compared to next best researcher!

Runner ups - Kailasa, Tir na n'Og
Both seem to have pretty solid positions, doing good in the graphs. Both seem to be improving their situation.

Kingmaker - Oceania
Despite some minor losses of late, Oceania is in a solid position. Oceania has all the tools to decide what will happen in this game. He can attack nearly anybody - starting a war where the opponent has nothing to win, only lose.

Dark Horse - Abysia
Abysia seemed to be in a tight spot, but recovered nicely. Maybe he won't be stopped.

Looking for a come back - Tien'Chi, Arcoscephale
These two are currently going downdward on the tracks. But Abysia showed that one lost battle does not lose the war.

The next few rounds might tell us more, as there are several wars raging around. I also assume that we will soon see some endgame tricks employed, as several nations have done quite a lot of research already (especially Ermor).

Hmm, seems that both Oceania and Arcoscephale staled last turn. It also seems that at least one of them staled the turn before that, as the last 2 turns have taken exactly 48 hours. Could our admin clarify the situation?

Could the players inform us whether they are still playing? Otherwise we should find subs asap, or make them go AI. Arcoscephale is especially crucial, as he is fighting Tir na n'Og.

Hello, time to wake up TimeLegend!!!

Now there was 4 staling players: Arcos, Tien Chi, Oceania and you!

Time for some admin action. Please post a message here to let us now what is the situation. Otherwise this game is going to go down the drain.

I myself am not interested in a game of 'who can beat the staling players'. If you are not interested in doing the admin duties, please give the password to someone else then.

And also, you should remove quickhosting till the situation is clear, thank you.

Sigh... Yes I suppose you are right on this subject, but please understand that this is my first time being an Admin in any of these larger games. I have in fact PMed Oceania and Arco to figure out what was going on but didn't get a reply.

As for me stalling that happened for two reasons.

1. I wanted to see if I could get into hold with Arco and Oceania and solve that issue before the end of the turn. I decided to wait for them until I got the 12 hour warning e-mail.

2. That e-mail never showed up before the turn ended!

As for you wishing to take admin responsiblilty since I don't seem cut out for it. O.k. I'll PM you the Admin password.

Nasty way to get a stale turn

And sorry, I did not mean to criticize too hard. I have zero game administration experience myself

I was just getting worried, as we have invested quite a lot of time on this already. Sorry again.

Now I think we should make a vote about what to do about staling players. Arcoscephale is pretty much gone already so that's not a problem, right? But Oceania and Tien Chi are still very powerful.

Options are:
1) do nothing, staling players' provinces are free for all
2) put them all to AI
3) Try to find subs for at least Oceania and Tien Chi

If any of the mentioned players notice this, could you please inform us of your intentions...

I myself am more inclined to just put them to AI to get the game moving on. Anyone else have an opinion?

Turn Arco to AI and try to find Subs for Oceania and Tien Chi, Oceania is in the best position to still do something in the game and could change the tide in many ways.
