I did not get it, if it was. I think it is late.

Default Turn 55

Turn 55 has been sent.

It was delayed because Atlantis sent the wrong file and the Machaka file failed to work. Machaka managed to fix the file problem with a new email, but I never heard back from Atlantis. Thus, Atlantis staled, as I could not wait any longer.

The next turn is due Sunday at 5 PM EST.

Ygorl figured everyone (er, most everyone... ) could use a bit of the bounty from the Well... It is y'all's misery, after all.

It converts everyone's unhappiness into death gems. Happy subjects work harder, which is why everyone's income jumped. I thought it would be in-character for the renewed tripartite wyrm to express his gratitude to the world.

You can put down the Quill...

Default Please hold the game, seek replacement (Turn 56)

I'm sorry folks to say that, but I must
request for the game to be put on hold! I'm looking for a replacement player for Machaka !

Atm. I'm self-employed and I'll have to undergo some minor surgery soon. Ambulant, I hope. Nevertheless, my working shedule is already messed up, and I can't simple take a sick-leave from several projects I'm committed to.

As you may have noticed, I already had some stale turns, either from being unable to do the turn in time because of acute pain attack or being under pain killers, or because I was simply still doing some serious work which got delayed.

Especially unfortunate is the fact that writing all the diplomatic messages I intended to send around turns out to be real hard work which I can't bear atm.. You may have noticed English isn't my first language, and to write elaborate treatises, carefully worded diplomatic messages or simply role-playing on the wiki board is not that easy for me.

Again, I'm sorry. But the only alternative would be to turn the nation over to the AI, which I'm reluctant to do because this tends to ruin the game for the emidiate neighbours in one or the other way.

Thanks.
Stefan

Good luck with the surgery... I hope it turns out well. Don't feel bad about the game. There are far more important things than Dominions...
