Anyone know if Ermor (Cheezeninja) played his turn Last night? Cheezeninja - are you out there? Unfortunately we are hosting at about 1am my time right now, so that makes it hard for me to detect a stale.

While Ermor might be in trouble, it seems to me that Ermor is in a quite pivotal position, and I'd really hate to see two consecutive stales here. I'm considering holding the game for 12-24 hrs in order to give Cheezeninja some time to show up. If I don't get confirmation that Ermor is active, we can set him to AI, but I'd like to do it w/o the 2 consecutive stales (as usually seems to be the way this happens).

I'm fine with having the game on hold for a while. Ermor is really pivotal right now, from what I've seen, so better to hold the game than have him stale.

Well, still no sign of Cheezeninja - if we don't hear from him before I go to sleep tonight, I'll reset the timer on the game. Then, at 12pm PST tomorrow, I'll set him to AI.

I have to go away at short notice Early Wednesday until Friday afternoon - I am hoping you can hold the game until then.

Sorry, Thanks

I don't see any problem with holding the game - I'll make sure it doesn't host w/o you having submitted until Friday 8pm, your time. Are you just one hour ahead of us, here in California?

If possible, it would be cool if you could get one more turn in before you go, but if that's a problem - no worries.

Cool - thanks for getting your turn in. Sometime after 8pm (your time) tomorrow, I will set it to 48h QH, then after your back Friday, I'll set it back to 24h QH.

BTW, we are at a point where it is reasonable to go to 48h QH - my personal preference is to stay at 24h, but if others want to go to 48, I'm fine with that.

As for pounding you, Anatoli, it's nothing personal. Honest. And you're a brave man for playing TC S&A - it's one of my Favorites, but it certainly is not an easy one to win with. Not only do you have plenty of weaknesses to exploit, you're a very good gem searcher, meaning you make quite a tempting victim!

I noticed that Ermor is now AI. Ermor just attacked me with his pretender that I thought I had killed two turns ago. Does AI Ermor get an advantage in resurrecting his god?

A bit off topic, but what time zone are the post's times diplayed in ? EST (i.e. NY) ? For example, Thufir's post above is 1:17am and I think he is in California, which would be 10:17pm EST.
