If a majority is in favor, I'll change to 48 hour turns.

Every time I try to play my turn it just says "file corrupted" Or something to that tune. Can I get an extension to try ot figure this out?

Okay. I just got this and the turn just flipped.as no one has turned in a new turn I am going to rollback to last turn and postpone until I hear from jazzepi that he's a go.

that's bad.
Is there a way to ensure noone remake his orders knowing what happened?

OH, I totally protest this rollback. I totally defeated Lanka's attack on my fort. I have suffered for the past 5 turns funneling troops into this fort to surprise him. And now he just got a free scouting report of how I am going to whip his butt. He surely wont attack now.

I think I should put real army on you at last. I must admit I underestimated Yomi a bit. But I agree - there should be no rollbacks unless really necessary. And if it's rerolled I won't change my turn to be fair [even though I had lost some troops I really liked].

P.S. Rytek, maybe you could just sell me that fort?

One thing we can do, of course, is to let TNO send in his turn, and no one else send in theirs. This can be easily verified in the status page as TNO shows "2h receive" and others show "waiting for 2h". Llamaserver still retains old 2h file from everyone for turn 27 so no one should stale, nor change their turns, for that matter.

However, the status page in Llamaserver still shows turn 28. I wonder if the rollback was indeed successful.

Whatever you all want. I realized the problems with rollbacks, but I also thought it unfair that a bug should force you to stale.

Hmm... yeah, it looks like it rolled back and rehosted with JAzzepis turn, but didn't send new trn files. I wonder if we can submit old ones or should request resends.
