How many times in a row has Mictlan staled?

Xietor · #**202** March 6th, 2008, 04:07 PM

he has staled like 4 of the past 5 turns. I like folket, but he obviously is not interested in this game. Sort of a bad experiment to take mictlan with no f9 or s9 bless.

If I've submitted my turn pre-patch, do I need to reconnect with a patched dom3 and redo the turn?

Xietor · #**204** March 6th, 2008, 04:39 PM

Since the server has been patched, it cannot hurt anything.

well, the timer has been reset again to 48 hours. That will mean 120 hours for this turn. heh.

I don't think you will have to redo your turn.

If somethng messes up I can restore to right before I patched.

Thanks for getting everything patched so quick Velusion.

Folket's Mictlan experiment looks like he has turned them into some sort of vast slave-trading empire. Mictlan slaves, not blood slaves!

An interesting idea, but probably not much fun, like Xietor says. I'm not sure why Mictlan didn't just go AI instead of staling. Maybe he was thinking of toughing it out?

Machaka (rasko) seems to have vanished entirely, from all the MP games he is in.

I just logged into the server and there is still 48 hours to go to host? Not sure why the server is not counting down?

Is there anyway to just force host? While Evilhomer has not done his turn, he has had over 72 hours, and it is unlikely that anyone needs more than 72 hours to do their turn at this stage.

Somehow the server was on 24 hours instead of 48 this turn. So I asked Velusion to please fix it, since there were about 7 players who had not submitted their turn yet, and the 24 hours was about to expire. The web page said something like 1 day, 6 hours to host, but the game itself said 6 hours.

I think he restarted the server with a 48-hour expiry. You can't really add time to the current turn any other way. If he had restarted with 24-hour expiry to add the extra day, then we'd be back at 24-hour turns when it hosted again.

I have no idea why Oceania has not submitted their orders yet.

EH is a good player. If he had internet access and wanted to send in a turn, it would take him no more than 15 minutes given the small size of his empire.

So he either has no internet access(and he warned us that may happen), or he does not want to send in a turn. EH is pretty good about getting a sub when he is done with a game, so I assume he has no internet access.

EH post on this thread: "I managed to get ahold of an internet connection so I am still playing, I don't know how long I can continue to play though (depends on a few things)."

But i do not think the entire game should be held up for 1 player when he has had 80 hours to submit a turn.
