MP: Pointy Sticks MA started

[shatner]

I sent the sub a full host of details concerning the game, the politics and his assets and he hasn't responded with a definitive "yes" or "no". If he's not interested, I'm probably going to divvy up my assets and go AI. This game has been great and challenging but my involvement in it is already past the time I have to dedicate to it. Unless a sub shows up real soon, my vote is for Pythium to get dumb and overrun (of course, you could argue this has been going on for a while, what with my steady losing streak to Ulm ).

[tratorix]

I can set Ctis AI and switch to Pythium if no one has a problem with it. I believe once I've gone AI as one nation I can switch to another without the server freaking out.

[shatner]

Suites me fine. I can play this turn while tratorix makes C'tis go AI, then tratorix can take over Pythium from there. Once this is the confirmed course of action, I will message all the tips and diplomacy info I have to tratorix.

[Mightypeon]

I fully agree with this.

[Gurthang]

All right

[RonD]

Thanks tratorix!

[Mightypeon]

Just a headsup,

the game should be progressing over the weekend.

[RonD]

I realize that we had a player change nations and that can take a little time to get up to speed, but we're barely running a turn per week now. That is the sort of pace where people lose interest and drift away (especially with no posted explanation for the repeated delays in the hosting schedule). Can we get back on a regular schedule before that happens? If someone regularly needs more time, I would rather have a 72-hour interval that we keep to than what we have now.

(now watch me be the next person who gets extra busy and asks for a delay.... But if I do, I will at least be sure the players know what is going on)

[Mightypeon]

It is partly due to the player change, setup diplomacy and Ossas temporary absence.
The game will turn soonish.
Only waiting for Pythium/Tratorix at the moment.

[Gurthang]

I think we can safely turn Pythium AI.
