You know, that's a good question. I never play with province names on so I hadn't really considered that. I don't think the .map file specifies that (hopefully not since this map file with fixed starts is only on the llamaserver).

Those you can ignore. I think it indicates victory points, even though we're not using them.

So active, so restless, these pretenders without enough faith in their servants that they are stirring already! Only 2 had faith, only 2 allow their servants time to properly prepare for their arrival....

I will be away from my computer from Friday to Sunday evening. I think I will be able to play a turn on Friday before evening (in Europe), and then the next possible time will be late on Sunday.
Is it possible to skip the turn on Saturday? Otherwise I would be looking for a temporary sub (MA Bandar Log). Otherwise I would stale.

Welcome, CarlixTomix!

Marmaduke, I think it makes sense to put the game on hold Saturday rather than look for a one turn sub. Please let me know when you are leaving on Friday and I'll postpone the next hosting until Sunday (say, 23:00 GMT?).

I found it quite humorous that at about 530 Eastern on Monday five or six of the eight players were hanging out online in the Shrapnel forums and a bunch of us had just recently submitted our turns. We are sitting about hoping that Ulm happens to login and submit so that we can do another set of turns!

You think most of us are excited about being in a multiplayer game?

That's great to see! Newbie games really are among the most fun.

I've mentioned this a bunch of times recently so I may be repeating myself but just a reminder that if you are the last person to send in your turn (check the llamaserver to determine this), wait a few minutes for the game to host and then immediately complete your next turn (since turns only take a few minutes to complete). This really helps keep the game moving early on (especially when you consider that people are in different time zones) and that gets everyone into the game.

It is nice to have an enthusiastic bunch and have the game move along quickly. I'm already seeing dark candles on the horizon.
