Nice work! Tell us when we can reconnect again.

And now wtf? Also, Ich, I usually just look at your stats page, so mail shouldn't be an issue... And my mailbox also has no your messages in spambox, too. So it's probably YOUR mailbox which needs rechecking..

And in case this will not have to be restarted (which I'm not against as I missed 2nd turn!

) -
R'lyeh - we do not need ye permission to do what we damn please, ye abomination!

About Claire - I've seen several times that the titles were given regardless of gender of Pretender in question as given in description... Probably either female-property was forgotten for some of those planned as female (as its main game effect is immunity to succubi...

) or title-giving doesn't look at it. I'm more inclined to think it's the first case.

A couple of provinces don't really connect like it looks like they're supposed to. Any way to straighten that out before you get the server back up?

It's often the case with random map generator. Possibly with manually editing *.map file?

You can do that now. Remember to delete old game files first.

The message is bouncing back from your email server, see my quote. That means that it never touches your inbox or spam folder.

No. I wasted enough time on this as is. I'm not supposed to be patching the game while it's underway.

If the map generator uses the same algorithm for neighbor detection like the original fan made one it was based on, then that thing really sucks. I have coded something for this which I'll release later when I get to polish it a bit, but in any case these changes have to be applied before the game has started. After the game has started, the map graph goes into the fthrlnd file and the game ignores the .map.

Sauromatia lays claim to the sacred Neck. The ancestral homes of Old Sauromatia lay on the banks of the vast Middle Sea. Once a proud people lived there in shining cities.

Then Stravinsky the phoenix god came down and took the form of a stork. He gathered the wise old men of the proud city together, and challenged them to a game. He showed the men his golden-red rubies the size of kiwis, and then they knew greed.

Stravinsky used the air itself to move his cards and trick the men, and before long, he had won all the men's monies. But Stravinsky was a cruel god, and he offered the men one last "chance" to get their gold and jewels back.

Goober the Witch King, the Swamplord himself, rose and took the trickster's challenge and bet the ancient lands of the Neck against the shadows and trickery of Stravinsky. The challenge was simple.

"Heads or tails?" Stravinsky squawked - the stork suddenly burst into flame, cackling and howling like a thing of both the fire and the wind.

And a tritoness was carried in screaming by four monstrous black apes in metal armors, their immense figures sleek and dangerous. They readied their razor-sharp falchions as she struggled to breathe through drying gills.

To Ich:
I surely got your notification mail from May 03. Did the message you had quoted was from later time or did by "one turn" you meant earlier? For earlier I had one of your messages spamboxed, but after I notified server this didn't repeat. BTW, about "thing that sucks" I can only agree...

To Renjoustin/Sauromatia:
Well, and what these pretty words mean? You want to beat crap out of somebody? Just tell him:
"I want your lands. I want your gold. I want your women. Prepare to die!"
Or did you eat up too much Sidhe meat to be able to speak plain now?
