Jotunland (PBEM) - (game on!)

[GrudgeBringer]

LLama is out of town until the 26th of August...there is a post on that

[namad]

a) would anyone like to sub for me? there is a solid chance of winning the game if you do b) can we switch to 48hour cycle otherwise? now that everyone has declared war on me all at the same time i need a lot more time to plan my turns and if the cycle doesn't increase and i don't get a sub i'll just have to go ai


i may be overreacting but i'm pretty drunk and I'm nearly so upset that i am contemplating quitting all the games i am in simultaneously and never playing again...

i think i am mostly mad at myself for not listening to the intuition that diplomacy was pointless in this game and should never be attempted


but yeah seriously now that everyone is at war with me I am going to require 48hour cycling to even consider continuing to play

I hope you reconsider your behavior when you sober.

I support the idea of 48h turns.

I'd offer to sub for you namad, but it would be bad for the community - why lose a player.

I doubt everyone is at war with you - I think kailasa and helheim are busy with sauromatia.

I hope they will bump it to 48 - but just remember its supposed to be fun. Think of the bragging rights if you win - all against one.....

I think I speak for Kalissa as well as myself...We arn't and don't look to war with you. In fact you have been nothing but gracious to us so as far as I am concerned.You can concentrate on the others and don't worrry about your back door.

I don't want to lose a player....48 will be ok with me if he doesn't reconsider.

well i calmed down after sleeping.. and i think i might be more of a blitz'er than a pbem'er... pbem... i just get waaaaaay too focused about stuff...

i don't even think i really enjoy the concept of finishing a game.... like I was going to try to make sauromantia wet himself with just two units... and even though i knew arco was going to backstab me i focused on poison immunity items instead of winged helmets for several turns just cause well i didn't really want to fight arco he has so many provinces even if i won a war with him it'd take too long and i'd get bored...

i should have taken arco's personal insult as the declaration of war it likely was... thats what i like about blitz's and small maps.... short game short fuses low number of provinces.. everyone knows what everyone is on about....

honestly i think i'm just still mostly mad at jazzepi, not wingeddog... what do you think would be better for the game? taking chris as a sub? or me finishing it up when I don't really give a damn about winning and i am just hoping to see the coolest looking battles i can?

[namad]

i haven't even really looked at my turn, due to disgust with myself... and the hosting is set for 6hours... not 30hours... so theres little chance me or chris will have a chance to do this turn on this time table?

[chrispedersen]

I'm paying attention to the thread -
But I'm a fairly picky player too namad - I substituted the sauromatia position only for a few turns, as I believed it has no long term viability.

I agree the turn should be switched to 48 - but in the interrim why not do the best you can - and of course if you really have no interest in playing the game.. I'll pick it up.

Best

sauromantia had no chance to win the game (sorry sauromantia)

at this point either arco wins, niefelheim wins... or somehow arco and niefelheim destory eachother in a massive war and someone (helheim or sauro win)



or the admin fails to set this cycle to 48hours ... niefelheim stales and then arco probably just wins i reckon
