Sorry guys. I was away this weekend, and have to work OT tomorrow. Can I get an extra 12hrs? Thanks.

postponed

Sorry, brain is completely not working, so I am turning AI.
I'll probably return to the forum after a month or so.
Sorry.

Sorry to see you go, Wrana. But you'd better find a sub. This game had more than enough stales and IA and what is left form TC could still interest someone, no ?

Check the graphs out (attached for on-lookers), and try to explain how Utgard's research graph went down!

Did you eventually find any explanation for this fascinating un-learning curve ?

postponed the game a bit to clarify the situation:
Does someone think that he has any chance to to damage to midgard now when even TC is gone?

Stagger Lee · #6 October 25th, 2010, 10:08 PM

Well, maybe I should have tried sooner, but Bogarus marches to war (and certain death)!

TC are only being set AI this turn, so is there any reason a sub isn't being looked for instead? Since I can't see too much point personally in continuing if we have to lose such an important nation to the AI.

There seems to be a lot of eager new players around these days, and while the position is far from one I'd want a new player to sub into, since the war with Midgard will likely mean the learning curve will have to be negotiated while similtaniously taking a blood bath. Even this has to be preferable to the AI rearing its unwanted head. So trying to find a sub probably isn't a completely fruitless exercise (unless none of the new players want a taste of late-game action)

As a last resort, and if delaying the game again is undesirable, can I suggest to find someone to amend TC's orders to a 'doing nothing/stale' turn rather than setting to AI. Since the latter is rather permanent after all.

Or of course just say well played, and award the game to Isokron. (although I'm happy to keep playing if others are, but maybe less so if TC are lost to the AI, as then it seems a lot less worth continuing IMO. But I still will of course if others are happy to)

i postponed again, but i have no time this weekend to look for a sub.

Herode · #9 October 29th, 2010, 01:13 PM

I've posted on the dedicated thread in hope some sub shows. I would be very disappointed to see this game ending just at the moment I was about to crush the crappy Utgard's uss

@ All - Hadrian has given me the admin password, and I've just posted for a sub. Fingers crossed one shows up

Edit -

Many thanks for that Herode, as the further and wider the request is shouted, the better chance a sub can be found
