There's no magic to do. Just tell the llamaserver to force hosting now.
It'll run with whatever turns it has.

I only know about this because we had a horrible fuss over a rehosting over in MistsOfTime, that led to a player quitting in protest and almost derailed the game.

Ys, did you try force hosting? If I have to send in a turn I can.

Assuming this gets worked out to everyone's satisfaction, the next order of business should probably be Christmas. I don't foresee at this point needing a large block of time, but would like a relaxed hosting schedule during the holidays. And I would not object to any request for more time over the next couple of weeks.

See? I CAN do this without declaring war on my neighbors!

Welcome Agusti. Thanks for stepping up.

Does anyone else have an opinion, or do I have to declare war on someone?

I would like to get this turn in and have the next one sent, we can put it on however many hours we want 100, 200 etc, with Quickhost so IF everyone gets a shot at completing a turn, a new one will come out with the same hours.

So no pressure and we can take it from Dec 23 or 24 (whenever the next turn comes out, clear thru NewwYears Day if we want.

How does this sound...If the 2 admins don't hear from you we will have to decide whats best and eveyone will have to live with it, so PLEASE let your feelings be known

I forced hosting. but for some reason it did not send anything...
I am reluctant to do it again, especially as its going to host in 2 hours anyway. Just sit tight and it will come through. (I hope)

I have been asked to be a backup ADMIN because I check the forums 2 to 4 times a day.

If you have any questions, extension requests, etc...

Post them in the forum and one of us will see it.

This will ensure that we won't miss another extension request or a problem that could harm the game.

Strange...

I have not received turn 22 (the new turn after the redo turn),

but Fomoria has already done his turn and sent it in.

Has everyone else received their turns?

Happened to me recently ... Just ask for the turn to be resend to you (I got mine 40 minutes ago).
