Why midsummer? Only cumulative VPs are added midsummer. Normal ones are added when conquered.

Yep, that's what I was thinking too. You conquer them, yours they are.

Game should have an option to play with Graphs off, but with VP graphs on.

Just my mistake then. Disregard it.

Hi all. I will be away over christmas. I will still be able to play, but I will not be able to access my normal mail account unless I go through some hassle. Thus I would like the llamaserver to send my turns to my not-that-frequently-used hotmail adress. Who do I contact? Lokean, Llama himself, or is it possible to do by yourself from the admin page of the game?

jesus.osterman (at) hotmail if anyone authorized to fix it reads this post.

Emperor of Untimely Death ponders too much on the well being of his populace.

The Hidden One has already acted.

The distant people worshiping this Princess of Crafts seems industrious and curious. An embassy will be set up in her lands so that her subjects can present the imperial ministers with gifts of gold and marvelous contraptions.

The Emperor will allow all human ambassadors to kiss the feet of his his ministers. Such is His grace that he will allow ambassadors the right to a seasonal visit to his embassies. At the height of each season petitions are accepted. Gifts should be presented prior to any petition made lest the minister in question might not feel obliged to take said petition to the Emperor.

Dont know about "should" but it could be done. Turn off the in-game scores, turn on the scores.html dump, have the postexec script edit out just the Vp scores and post that to the webspace for the game. IN fact since VP is at the end its one of the easiest to trim out.
I will add that to my options list.

So did we decide we should make all diplomacy public? I think that would really add a nice touch, maybe a special wiki area for it?

Not all diplomacy, or it wouldn't make sense imho (secret pacts, much boring trading), and even a bit out of character for whoever decides to narrate the chronicles as an infantryman (or similar) of his nation
I think the public diplomacy should be just some nice touches.

BTW, I think I can rightly suppose that the diplomacy is Machiavellian/Vegas, true? Sounds strange to write "we have put our stealthy armies in the enemy territory, ready to strike the vital targets. Our armies have massed on the borders or in the labs, ready to invade or teleport inside the filthy enemy nation. Our lord the bloodthirsty Prince of Death Krakakazaurum the Eater of Newborn Children gives the command to attack! Chaaaaaaaaaaaaarg... oh wait. We had a NAP-3. Gotta be honourable and wait 3 months."
