do we need to delay hosting for abysia? its one of the stronger nations in the game? is anyone being considered for the part?

on that same note is thedemon still MIA due to moving and not having internet yet? might needa delay both prepo/noobsvvets2 for that? he did post somewhere he was going to be mia and hasn't posted his return yet(despite him having anticipated not being gone quite this long) so it might be a safe assumption?

Any effort to really try to win this game would require a lot more than I'm able to now that I've got only 1 functional hand. It will (should) heal in three weeks but never say never. So either I should get a sub for Abysia that has a lot of energy and time to put on these things, or just fold.

yeah i didn't really mean to suggest a 24hour delay would be sufficient to allow atul to play the turn but it would be helping in deciding what to do with the game... no one has posted any serious feedback on what to do... and AI'ing the nation with a GIgANTIC LEAD all of a sudden will really shake the game up

it's a really strong position and atul just needs someone to do his work... he'd have a much easier time catching someone up to speed than actually playing himself i imagine? plus with someone to catch you up to speed that makes the sub position seem even better doesn't it?

so... any takers?.... was zeldor interested? i was certainly asking him often enough... did anyone have specific objections to zeldor playing given secrets you told him? anyone have anyone in mind? how about someone just posts something random and pointless just to let us know that people still read this thread....

I think I know a bit too much to get into playing Abysia. And Madness is still unresolved, so I rather wouldn't have enough time.

Atul cannot go AI we would have to delay until we find a sub. Putting him to AI does not even seem like an option to me.

namad · #**757** May 2nd, 2009, 05:23 PM

if he goes AI it's basically a new and totally unrelated game but its still a game....

he's not planning to play this turn and you don't want him to go ai we might wanna delay? i mean 4nations are planning to stale and said so before the turn even began.... (although thedemons post for some reason was only on noobsvets2 thread and atul's i think was in irc)

then again we cannot delay forever i don't really know what to say on the matter i wish no one had ever quit from the very beginning or i wish that the community made it easier to get subs....

atul hasn't even posted asking for a sub that i can see? why is that? because a random person won't be any better than ai it has to be someone reliable enough to take over a leading position?

maybe we should hold a vote on AI/delay until playable? also.... if you are going to delay until subbed... its best not to stale the position a bunch (and this'll be 3in a row for la absyia i believe)

oh i see while i was posting zeldor already added a day

Atul posted for a sub and I can play temporarily for Abysia, but it wouldn't be a good idea to take over permamently. I know a bit too much about some nations. So I will play just few turns.

BTW, anyone knows what is going on with TheDemon? How much would it hurt if he staled? I will add 24h anyway, to give him a chance.

looking to trade:

blood for gems
items for gems

earth/fire/air for other gems

also looking for unique powerful path mages to charm for various payments

Hmm... Yomi/Mictlan is still staling. There is no sight of available sub for Abysia and atul has that missing hand affliction for some time. It seems that interest has went really down and selecting winner may be not possible in near future. Maybe we should call it a draw? And set better rules and tweak the map for 2nd edition.
