Sure, ask him

Pause possible in Early Era Game at Gandalf\'s?
I realize it is a blitz game but was wondering whether we might have a pause in hosting Saturday, please? I'll be away from the internets for most of the day.

Re: Pause possible in Early Era Game at Gandalf\'s?
I would be happy for that to happen.
Do we all stale ?
Or do we beg our host to make some magic happen ? (Given some of Gandalf's recent posts he might not want to alter a game that is running along happily  ) |

Re: Pause possible in Early Era Game at Gandalf\'s?
heehee. I explained to the Rev how to make it happen.
Sending me an email saying "please shut off hosting on saturday and turn it back on sunday" wont work. Im too old and uncaring to remember that far ahead.
What works is for the person running the game (started the thread) to send a PM on saturday with something like "please turn off hosting" and then send a PM on sunday saying "please turn back on hosting". That way as soon as I see the PM I can do it and forget it.
Im not trying to be mean or anything. Thats just the best way to work me. Im old and easily distracted.

I've requested Gandalf to resume 24-hour hosting.

Re: Pause possible in Early Era Game at Gandalf\'s?
Well I think it is curtains for Sauromatia. I could never manage to mass enough mages to summon enough tough units to deliver a hard enough blow to knock off enough Dai Oni's at once to keep Yomi from bouncing back stronger and stronger. The grinding style of warfare Sauromatia faces now has taken an awful toll - a majority of leaders and troops suffering from disease and no gold with which to purchase replacements. I don't think I can even get enough priests together to stop my dominion from winking out in the near future. Not that Yomi seems to be actively preaching against my last flickering candles (I am suffering some collateral damage from my ally's efforts).
As this is my soon to be second completed MP game I would like to thank my ally and opponent for making it so enjoyable.

I think that you did an excellent job killing Dai Onis! I must have recruited over a dozen and have only a few alive at the moment. And most of those are new recruits, from the past five turns or so.
I don't know what I'm going to do about Oceania...
