Well, I haven't heard much about what other people are doing, though I myself have been giving away tons of stuff regarding my location, what I'm doing, and who I neighbor in the Name of the Story(tm). So, ahem, what's up with everyone else? I know Helheim is at war with Agartha, but not too much else. I, myself, will soon have a rousing story of sweet victory over an ancient enemy (or a bitter defeat that increases the enmity) quite soon.

Cax Kulu shall be avenged!

Having a little bit of trouble getting in contact with Ulm, Marverni and Arcoscephale so I might have to delay a day or two. Hopefully they'll be back in touch soon.

I am dabbling about some huge moorland with the coast to our West; sending my pretender off to survey his lands. Apparently there are elements here rthat are not happy with our rule and they have incited the local primitives to rise up against us on several occasions. We have found a local group of water mages who have agreed to work with us, as our opposing elements offer ample opportunity for experimentation. We have also found some sort of portal that reeks with conjuratuion magick but have yet to find a use for it.

We have seen another nation traverse the lands to our North, we believe they are Marverni or some similar ilk but we have not made contact.

I've been surfing the wiki (

) and I've noticed a few people don't have any updates, on the wiki at least, specifically Tifone (who plays Oceania), C'tis (though Agarthan Raider hasn't had much time to get together a reasonable update) and Soyweiser(of Abysia; by the way sorry for Inutho's trail of blood

). Even fewer people have updated their pages past turn 8. So, I ask, what's up? Do you guys just not know where the wiki is or how to use it? I know Tifone is separated by a language barrier (Tifone is from Italy, right?), maybe some of you other guys are? Is there just some sort of prevaling current of apathy or massive e-flu keeping you from being able to write stories? The world demands to know!

The world being me, of course.

EDIT: For the truly e-ignorant, click on the word 'wiki' to get to the Dom3wiki page for Chronicles EA.

Sorry for not making texts, but you are the only other nation I had contact with so far. And there is only so much I could write about conquering independents...

I suspect that one of my potential neighbors was Mictlan...

Wrana · #**326** April 6th, 2009, 03:42 PM

Apathy is closer to target, I think.

I still hope to catch up when (if) something interesting happens, but...

Darkwind · #**327** April 6th, 2009, 03:55 PM

Fighting independents is about all the early game has to offer.

You could consider it a chance to practice your writing skills, to make the big battles that much more epic. Or experiment

Try different viewpoints, styles, etc. Have a blast while you can!

@your second post: If nothing interesting is happening, MAKE something interesting happen. Write about a vast parade in your god's honor to celebrate some victory or another. Or perhaps two of your commanders have an, ahem, interesting history. Perhaps a commoner is challenging one of your senior officers? Go wild! Make Lanka come alive!

This applies to pretty much everyone, by the way. Even I could use a few more updates--sure, they might be long, but I haven't hit every turn like Caelum in Chronicles MA.

I've just been swamped lately so I haven't had time to get as much writing as I'd like done. Got a bit of breathing room at the moment though, so I might get down to polishing off those turns I haven't finished writing..

I'm experiencing minor technical difficulties which will stop me from getting turns in and, because I'm bone idle, it may take some time to fix. Taking into account the nature of this game I'd like to keep going, which probably means quite a few stales. Since I have no neighbors and the likelyhood is I'll get back in a couple of turns it shouldn't be to unbalancing. But if you get a willing sub I wouldn't mind, especially if it looks like a neighbor is about to roll over me.
Thanks and sorry.

Ruminant · #**330** April 9th, 2009, 01:30 PM

Alright, Mith. Fair enough. I'll take over your turns until we can get a temp sub. Hope to see you back in game ASAP

Unfortunately Maverni and Ulm are still AWOL : /

Let's wait until Monday; if they haven't submitted turns or contacted me by then I'll look for permanent subs for them.
