Newbie Slug Fest - Mose Hansen game - ENDED

[Beorne]

Ah! you are the damn Juton! I'm Van, you know that we'll end exterminating each other in Ragnarok with no winner, it's already written!

Looks like everyone has uploaded their pretenders. Let the slug fest begin!

The game has started. Good luck to all.

Well, not TOO much luck, as the angels from above might frown upon anyone displaying excessive luck.

Feel free to post in here as interesting things happen in the game.

For instance, the mighty army of Caelum was content to stay at home and study in the library for the first month. The war can wait!

Be warned, inland map can get really crowded with 10 players. And with a relatively high indy setting, players will prefer to attack other players instead of indies.

This is so true. Inland has only about 150 land provs and 5 water ones. It is also wraparound and has very few choke points. With ten players on such a wide open map, this means that everyone is going to start right next to someone.

So you better dust off your scrolls and have some very good messengers going to your nearest neighbors right off the bat if you want to survive in this crowded realm!

I'm very happy this game is going very fast, considering part of the players have work to do etc.
But ...
I put my hands ahead beforetime, I have to go to Rome for work (this is a rare event indeed) next thursday 16 and I'll return the day after, friday 17 (oh oh ...). I don't know if the Last turn I can make will be thursday morning very early (about 07AM) or afternoon (about 05PM). The next turn will be probably friday at 11PM.
This means an idle time of 55-70 hours.
Could you wait for me? It is very difficult for me to find a substitute for some turns, but if you can't accept it I'll try to find one or I'll be idle.

PS: all my times are GMT+1 (central europe), so adjust times accordingly for yor zone (west coast is -9 and est coast is
-6, I think)

Thank you.

No problem changing this to 48 hours upon request. I said in the thread that I would do that, so the other players cannot legitimately complain.

Having never done this before, I am not all that certain how it works. I assume that I must make the change BEFORE you move so it will be in effect while you are away. if anyone knows for sure how this works on Mose Hansen, I would appreciate your wisdom.

What you need to do is post in here on Wednesday evening (your time) and remind me to do this. I will adjust the time about 7 PM my time. I am GMT-7, so this will be in the middle of the night in Italy.

You can make your move on Thursday and then have a minimum of 48 hours to make the next one. While you are away, I will change it back to 24 hours, unless that weekend is when Krool Death needs the extra time. In that is the case, I will leave it at 48 hours throughout the weekend.

By the way, your math is wrong. Are you a lawyer or something?

From 7 AM Thursday to 11 PM Friday is only 40 hours.

No, I'm a computer scientist. That's why your windows goes blu .

You were right, in fact I edited my previous mail because I put in a wrong Last turn day (I never really learned well days in eng). I'll do the Last turn on Wednesday cause I'll depart after work in the late afternoon. I hope to have the time to pass from my house to do the turn. Unfortunately the idle hours are correct.

Beorne, if it would make your life easier, I should be able to act as a temporary replacement player while you are away. Be warned you should give me some instructions though, as I am not a big fond of Vanheim.

[Beorne]

You're very kind, I'll consider your proposal, thank you!
