MP Game - Humans High Gems Low Magic

I was wondering if a Lich counts as a Human/Immobile pretender?

Look, I mostly agree with the points of the people that dont like Cohen hogging slots, but this has gone far enough i think. He has not started a game since this big hoopla started, and while he quit in the lead in one game (a decision i disagree with) this constant insulting and belittling has got to stop. He's obviously very enthusiastic about this game, and likes to win, just like everyone else. But all your doing by throwing personal insults into the mix is making this forum worse, and i dont want to see it anymore. If this crap keeps up the most likely result is the loss of someone who's faults as i see them, are liking the game alot and not being the best at it. Maybe thats what some people want, but i dont want to see anyone chased away like that. This is just like a couple months ago when Norfleet and his questionable information tactics were the flavour of the moment.

[edit] Oh, and about the lich. No.

I hesitate to post in a thread for a game I'm not involved in, but Cheezeninja makes an important point.

Let's keep this place civilised.

Please do look at the very first post in this entire thread. You'll see the bit about :

You've to take a Human (10 point per new path) or Immobile pretender (those with 0 map movement). The lone exception is Ermor that in addition can take the Master Lich (the one with only 5 Hit Points).

In other words - no the lich is not immobile or human, but it was explicitly mentioned as allowable by the person creating the game and rules.

Well I can't be responsible for everything on this thread, but it is a game that is currently still running and this is the place to post with questions or issue, that involve the others playing in this game.

So we can't let this thread die until the game is over. Even if the creator of the game left.

Oh and he is not playing a lich, but someone is.

ok I will check it out. Was surprised to see a lich in play.

Given that it'd been 9 days (19 July) since the Last comment was made about Cohen, I'm not sure why you're bringing this up now, unless your real intent is to rile people up again by reminding them of Cohen's faults.

Actually, no - his faults are that he's greedy, selfish, and inconsiderate, as evidenced by his hogging slots with games whose mutant rules suited his gaming fetish, by his repeatedly quitting those games and thus screwing them up for people, his infantile "Okay, I'm disowning the many games I created and quit from" as though that fixed things, and temporarily even going so far as to stop games that he'd started but quit from.

Rather like a punk kid who really likes to play monopoly or risk with the other kids, but who then quits in the middle of the game just because he isn't having fun anymore, regardless of the impact on the other people playing the game.

(Let's not forget his grabbing the game as soon as it comes open, and insisting on mutant rules, and basically attempting to take his game board home with him at times. Yes, I'd be perfectly happy if he stopped playing, because he screws up almost every game he has been in -- getting greedy in negotiations, playing hardball "If you don't let me have those 10 provinces, it's war", starting wars that screw other players over, and then quitting rather than living with the mess that he made.)

Now then - as I said, why did you feel a need to bring this up and remind people of their feelings about Cohen when noone had bashed him in a week and a half, regardless of how much he deserves it?

I was surprised to see it as an option myself, given the limitations on other pretenders, but was happy to jump on the loophole when I saw it. If only I had started as one of Abysia's neighbors, I would have been ecstatic.
