What, didn't you saw this If a player wants he can take a break and when returning he continues from the level where he was before the break. Perhaps you have seen this: These rules are subject to change at any time.

But seriously speaking I think it's fair that player can take a break and after that continue playing without starting from the bottom. Thus Primitive doesn't have to start from the bottom again.

I changed the Hill names again. It's truly confusing that the bottom of the hill isn't the lowest level. Now it is. I added the crest of the hill before the top. If I recall right it was Slynky who proposed that so thanks to him.

And those names aren't nailed down so if someone has a better name ideas post it here.

sounds good.

Just hope someone does not complain about it down the road.

Which could happen

I think the only way this could cause a problem is if the current king (whoever it may be at that time) should have to pause play due to RL issues and step away from the game for a bit until things calm down. In which case I think if the King came back after everything is fine then he should be put, not back at the King position - as I'm sure that would cause some fuss with the King - but at the next open contender spot; wheter that is #1, or #3 would depend on the openings at the time. This (with any revisions anyone can think of) I think should be written into the rules before this happens so as to avoid any problems in te future.
What say you Asmala?

Asmala:
Thanx, looking forward to start again.

Tesco:
Why are you so reluctant to let me in on the hill again above you ?
Afraid ?

It is wise to fear the wrath of the Primitive one, cause he comes well prepared (and carries a big stick).

I say I have already noticed that possibility However if The King takes a break he drops one level down. And I added that yesterday, not now Perhaps I should clarify it and change that the King becomes a contender when he came back.

Despite the graphics suggesting otherwise, there are more slots at the crest of the hill than in the middle. Shouldn't this be more like 8-6-4-2-1 instead of 8-3-4-2-1 ?
Not that I want to be picky, but I dare to look up from the bottom trying to find a nice open space ahead
