Default Re: Possible delay....

I wonder if I could ask for a volunteer to be 'game admin' for this game. It's not much of a job, but you'd have the power to postpone hostings etc, and so people would ask you for postponements if they were going away for a day or two or whatever. And later on in the game if people want to switch to 48 hours, you'd be the one to ask people what they want and make the change. It's all very easy to do through the 'Admin options' link on the game page.

I only ask because I'm aiming for 'sustainable development' on the LlamaServer. If other people can admin games for me then I'm free to spend more time working on the server and organising new games, and I could end up having loads of games on the go without it getting stressful.

Right, following Amhazair's request, I've now added an option on the website to have your turn resent. On the Armadillo page, you can now click on 'Request turn resend', select your nation, and your turn will be sent again a few minutes later. Not that I expect you'll need it - this is the first time a turn file hasn't got through. But I thought it might be a useful option.
Would that enable a person to request another players turn?

Nope. That would be bad! It sends the turn to the normal address for that player. So it can't really be abused. (I've tried to make the whole system abuse-proof by the way - even the game admin has no way of cheating).

I would be willing to admin. Requests for delay can be made here or you can e-mail my address to everyone with the next turn file.

The Priest Kings of Mictlan humbly begs the allmighty GrayZ to spare the people of Mictlan, led astray by a false god that havn't even shown his face. Promises of Law and order has turned to naught but war and strife. The priests of Mictlan defecate on the tomb of their false pretender.

All Hail the Earth Monster!
GrayZ has decided to be benevolent, and spare Mictlan. However, the nation of eriu still roils with anger, and cannot stand the presence of Mictlan within its sacred forests.

It would be best for Mictlan to not gather large armies within the forests, and instead head to the plains in the south. Doing else wise will anger the troops of eriu beyond my control, and will surely lead to war.

Request a delay:-

I am having a minor operation on Tuesday 19th June, I will get my turn for Tuesday hosting but could we then switch to 48hr hosting for 1 turn? So the next turn is due Thursday 21st June?

Hopefully, I should be okay from then onwards.

Default Current turn?

What was the most recent turn sent for this game, and what was its deadline?
