Game on!

Good luck everybody. Remember that Fomoria is a nation of peace, that wishes for nothing more than tolerance and mutual prosperity.

What a coincidence; that's what the hungry blood demons of Lanka want too!

Wow, I was so tired yesterday that I did my turn -- and then forgot to send it in. Huzzah for a turn 5 stale!

In other news, I unexpectedly will not have internet access for most of this weekend (Oct 23-24, PST). I would like to request a turn extension, please.

Thinking it over, normally I wouldn't do this, but because even one turn can have a large effect in the early game, would it be possible for us to do a turn rollback?

I think it can be done quickly and without too much trouble, but it would be better if people didn't look at their results for this past turn (I haven't) if it is going to happen.

If people object, of course, I withdraw my request.

To roll back if 1 person has sent in his turn is a mess....Check with some of the Vets about it.

Obviously we shouldn't do it if it is going to be a colossal pain.

My apologies to all of you for detracting from the game, one way or another.

There are pros and cons to rolling back. On the one hand, it could prove technically difficult. It will also affect the other players' turns (if anyone got a worse result of their battles than they had before the rollback, it could be bothersome). I doubt it would seriously affect anyone, though.

And on the other hand, as mockingbird pointed out, a turn 5 stale is suboptimal.

What are other peoples' opinions?

I don't mind a rollback, my turn was rather uneventful.

I do think that if just one player doesn't wan't a rollback, then we shouldn't have one.

I've already accepted the issue and moved on with my turn.

Carry on, folks!

Hi.

This night I have sleeped in one of my friends' house.
I'm not able to send my turn with my computer. If you could postpone the turn one day more... it would be fantastic.But there is no time... I'm going to try something stupid to send me turn.
