Well, the Peoples Republic of Ulm predicts some rather big Fireworks in or near Shinuyamas capital soon.

Yeah, probably shouldn't have sent soldiers. The idea was the horrors were to soften you up for proper Axe-recieving. But instead they just killed everybody.

It was a spectacle though.

I just realized something. I'm going on vacation for a week on Oct 12... I won't have internet/Dominions access then... what's the proper thing to do? Look for a temp sub for the week? Look for a perm sub? Try and get killed before then?

FAJ · #**154** September 26th, 2011, 09:45 PM

I am fine with a weeks downtime. We went through roll-backs and bugs; I don't think a couple days is too bad.

jimbojones1971 · #**155** September 26th, 2011, 09:56 PM

Yeah, I am happy either way. Getting a sub can work well, but pausing is also quite reasonable.

If you want a sub, I might be able to talk CthulhuDreams into it - he's generally a good player, unless you count playing Vanheim, in which case you'd probably be better off just staling as the outcome will be much the same. (But seriously, dude is a ninja - want me to ask him for you?)

I can't get the hymn to Shinuyama to open from work, I shall have to try it from home. I hope someone remembers to write a hymn for Ermor in the event that we too get horribly murdered!

I also just remembered vacation plans. I will probably be away for most of next week (the 1st through the 7th). Im not sure of the exact dates yet. It will probably be 3-5 days. Could you talk to CthulhuDreams for me too?

my previous stategy of throwing more unicorns at the problem doesn't seem like it'll work, those big horrors are much scarier than i'd anticipated

If I understood correctly we have 2 vacations foreseen, one from 1st to 7th October and the other one starting 12th, right? I won't object if everyone agrees that waiting these days out is OK, but since those vacations are spread out and we have only one player away at a time, I'd think a sub would be a better choice. I could ask a friend of mine to sub someone. He's also a raw rookie like the rest of us. In that case, it's wise to make sure he understands your goals and strategy. My point is that we would postpone total of 14 days for one player at a time.

Actually, in best case I would like to eventually "compose" a hymn of honor for every nation that loses the race for the ultimate power in this game. Even if I lose this game, I will continue to do so for the next nations. I think it's a nice way to say that you weren't useless or played "lolnubingly", instead you will receive a nice thank you for the game.
My only concern is that it will become rather tricky to do role-play wise for nations I haven't met yet. It's so unimaginative to help myself with the "rumors" thing each time.

I also somewhat count on that I will actually read up someone got defeated here on the forum, as I might not catch that fact in game (my Byakugan does have a distance limit)
