Utopia - new MA rich game! (game on!)

[Zeldor]

Ok, I have some problems with dominions and it suddenly stopped working. I may have to reisntall it, so that's why I have postponed.

[Folket]

I will be gone Friday to Sunday this weekend but that should not impact the game unless the next turn hosts very quickly.

I will be gone Thursday to Sunday next weekend.

[Lingchih]

Anybody want any lanterns? I've got a bunch left over. I'll just trash them otherwise.

[Zeldor]

Turn postponed by 24h by Van's request.

[Lingchih]

Hmm. VPs. I have four, Shin has four. We need what, 7? Who will win?

[Folket]

Since I'm gone now, I would like to postpone the hosting til sunday evening.

[Lingchih]

Oh, and to whoever has been sending those anonymous Horrors at me. I hope you had your amusement. Because you will pay, at some point. If I can ever figure out who you are.

[Zeldor]

Yeah, me too. For the guy that was sending black deaths at me [and bouncing spells of my domes recently[ - I'm coming for you!

[Lingchih]

Did we get an extra 24 hours? I saw no one ask for it.

[Lingchih]

Ahh, never mind. I missed Folkets' post.

[Folket]

I'm sorry, but I got home now and I'm a wreck. I missed two nights ff sleep while I was gone(my throat hurt so much that I was not able to sleep). I feel better now but I'm just so tired that I can't play my turn tonight.

Could the tun be delayed an other day?

[Zeldor]

Well, I guess I can do it. But I hope that people will get next turns in faster.

[Lingchih]

I predict a December finish for this game, just before the new year :)

[Lingchih]

Alright, first the anonymous horrors, and now 14 dome-breaker spells cast at me. If someone wants to fight me, then come out and fight, and not hide behind anonymous spells.

Coward.

Ahh... never mind my ranting. It's probably Namad. We are technically still at war.

[Zeldor]

I have postponed the game for BL.

Any takers for subbing Vanheim? I guess he did not find anyone by himself...

[Lingchih]

Game extensions, for 72 hour host games, are like salt on a wound. And, I notice that Bandar Log was in on time, only you are still out. :p

[Zeldor]

I had to rehost, as it was not accepting my turn at all, trying to convince me we are on a different turn.

New turn seems to ahve some bugs for me. Anyone has issues too? I don't know if I should rehost again.

[Lingchih]

I didn't have any issues, except that my income was only 190 gold, when it should have been close to 3000. In fact, the scales show that my income went up.

This happened to me a couple of turns ago as well, but it was only about 500 short, so I didn't mention it. This hurts me right now though, as I am about to go back to war.

I would say re-host it again. If it's still messed up, the game may well be broken in some way.

[Zeldor]

Huh, almost 3k income vanishing? That should not happen. Maybe you did not check properly? Or some event bug?

[Lingchih]

Nope. No events. I double-checked. As I said, it has happened before, a couple of turns ago. Maelande and I talked about it on IRC, in fact.

I can send the file to a 3rd party, if you like. But I've checked quite thoroughly. I should have had almost 3000 gold, and when I open the turn, I have 190. Only two events happened, both minor unrest events.

If you want to go back to another turn, I lost two SCs to a horror raid on one of my caps, when they supposedly fled the battle into enemy lands. But, the battle replay showed I won, and the SCs never ran, in fact, they never even fought the horror. I chalked that one up to a battle replay bug at the time, but this stuff is starting to add up.

[Zeldor]

Well, I have weird stuff like enemy storming troops starting INSIDE my walls. But I don't know if rollback would solve it.

Horrors again? huh, I think I know who was sending some at me

[Zeldor]

Ok, with multiple weird stuff and possible bug reports from at least 3 nations, I agreed to rehost last turn and check if it solves anything. Sorry if someone gets worse MR etc rolls because of that. I just hope there is nothing wrong with the game and rehost will fix it.

[Folket]

I'm really unhappy with the rehostings. I can understand once but not two times.

I think some of the bugs might very well be that they did not delete the old 2h file before looking at the new trn file. That happens.

The units starting in the castle. are you talking about those in the opening or those that jumped into the castle when you mass enslaved them? I think neither is a bug and it would be good if you did not rehost before people have a chance to comment.

[Zeldor]

No, it was no that. With enslave it's just a funny thing. I did rehost because of bugs in other nations - ask Lingchih, I was pretty much opposed to rehosting it to not have situation like that [sure, I was pissed at that battle, but I prefered to let it be].

[Gregstrom]

I believe the phrase I am looking for is "neener neener neener". Alas, my prophet seems to have died of erosion.

[Folket]

Sorry I missed my turn. I was ill and accidentally fell asleep at seven.

[Lingchih]

I'm afraid I need a 24 hour extension. This is the first I have asked for in the game, but I have lot's of stuff to do.

[Zeldor]

Sure, I will add it.

[Gregstrom]

Congratulations, Zeldor!

[Zeldor]

thanks, here is turn file :)

You can all play Preponderance 2 now :P

[Lingchih]

Good game Zeldor. It was quite fun and highly amusing, from start to finish.

[Folket]

Well played everyone. I'm very pleased with the game.

But I did expect Vanheim and Bandar Log to put up a better fight. They should both have pretty good teleporting armies. Seems like they decided to give up the game.

But I myself is not beyond giving games away.

[Zeldor]

Yeah, but Bandar Log had corruption dome on that cap, so he could not do much. All his provs around got cut off by tarts to prevent flying Dakinis in etc.

For Van - yeah, he should have trapezed his air mages in to do some harm at least. But I don't think he was able to stop the army I put there.

[Folket]

It depends. If he could get 50 blood mages there he might have been able to kill your tarts with leech.

[Zeldor]

Yeah, probably, but I don't he could. He is BL after all, not Lanka :) But honestly - Arco was meant to be just a distraction, so BL cannot try to stop me at R'lyeh or T'ien Ch'i, which were real targets.

[Folket]

I was talking about Van.
