Yeah, it's still at +1 dominion. It was positive during the battle too, just for extra confirmation. Dominion bonuses to hp and strength.

This never happens in SP of course.

If people were adamantly opposed I'd be willing to play on, and get trashed much earlier than otherwise I'm sure, but I'd much rather restart.

I'm not adverse to starting over, though I am doing awfully well. I'd never support screwing someone over through no fault of their own.

Hubris · #75 August 3rd, 2005, 07:21 AM

LOL. Why do I even bother taking Luck scales... sigh..

I just got back to checking the boards. Sorry about the weekend I wasnt near my computer from saturday afternoon until monday after work.

I don't mind a restart. that is a heinous bug even though im not doing all that bad.

Word leaking out of Pangaea is that some sneaky messengers have been caught and executed.

Words is also that gifts were exchanged between Pangaea and another nation, but what nation that is remains a mystery.

Let's continue anyway. I'm not doing that well, obviously, but I've found a good province, If I'm left alone for a few turns I should be able to recover.

Besides extra bragging rights if I win, a good excuse if I lose.

Arkas: No problem. Glad I decided to wait. Just try to let me know ahead of time and I won't have a problem stopping the timer.

Which brings me to my next problem. I'm going to be away this weekend. Thursday afternoon to sometime Monday evening. I'd like to put it on hold till I get back.

I'm fine with you having it on hold. Unless of course some people violently object? I'm off for vacation too, but i've got a friend who's agreed to play a couple of turns for me. You better watch out though, he's better then me!
