Re: Preponderance 2 [epic team game returns!]
About the false start -
Sorry bout that guys. I got everything started fine, but then realized I forgot to switch out Kailasa's start for LA CTis. LA CTis actually ended up with no provs or capital of any kind - weird!!
Anyway, I unstarted the game and am now waiting to hear back from llama if everything is ok to restart (there is a bug with restarting multi-era games). So we should hear back from him soon.
Regardless, we are one huge step closer to starting the game  |

Re: Preponderance 2 [epic team game returns!]
Apparently another false turn was generated by my un-start.
The game has not started yet - we must have llama manually unstart the game. This must be the bug he was referring to. I have 2 emails in to him already...

Re: Preponderance 2 [epic team game returns!]
Llama did respond and restarted the game - however it appears that the map I sent him was overridden or ignored somehow. So, we are waiting for him again.
Sorry bout the delay, guys.

Re: Preponderance 2 [epic team game returns!]
Oops, and sorry for yet another false start just now. The game is now set back to "Waiting for pretenders", so Ironhawk can change the map manually via the web interface. Generally that seems to be more reliable than me doing things by hand. Can't understand what could have gone wrong with me trying to use the new map yesterday though, that was quite straightforward.

Gremlins. It has to be Gremlins inside the Llamaserver.
Oh, sorry, I'll butt out again.

Re: Preponderance 2 [epic team game returns!]
So the turn that I got in the wee hours of the morn' has I-assume-erroneous cheat-detection warnings going off? This is presumably not cool  .

Re: Preponderance 2 [epic team game returns!]
Or someone did not use CBM to create their pretender. But it'd be 4 people, huh...

Re: Preponderance 2 [epic team game returns!]
But they used CBM the previous three times the game started ?
I don't think that's it - something else must be wrong.

Re: Preponderance 2 [epic team game returns!]
And I have more bad news. I will probably need a 48 hour delay of the first turn as I usually go away for Christmas  |
