View Full Version : MP Newbie/Intermediate FF game: A Totally Civil Union [send pretenders]
Legendary League
May 16th, 2012, 04:37 PM
Name: A Totally Civil Union (ATCU)
Host: llamaserver.net
Age: EA
Map: Shadowshore (http://z7.invisionfree.com/Dom3mods/index.php?showtopic=491)
Turns: 36h, extensions upon request
Number of Players: 8-12
Mod: Forbidden Friendship 2.1 (a combination of Awesome Gods, Awesome Endgame [both of them major Dom3Goon mods], and CBM)
Non-Standard Settings: Hall of Fame entries 15; No graphs; rename on
Victory Conditions: Last one standing (or whoever is willing to go on with the late game grind)
Diplomacy Policy: All trades are expected to be completed. It's just good sportsmanship. Everything else? Go nuts. Just keep in mind that breaking treaties may or may not earn you a reputation, both in game and out. You can also choose whether or not to keep treaties secret or announce them publically in the thread (or via message system). Doesn't do anything, of course, except makes betrayals known (and thus attaches a cost to breaking treaties). Coalitions against one nation are also allowed.
Also, the more thematic and IC you are for in-game and diplomatic messagings, the more awesome points you win (redeemable for absolutely nothing).
NATIONS (11/11)
Me: ummmmm, Mictlan (lol)
Jolly Roger: Abysia
Ragnarok-X: Maverni
dojango: Kailasa
HoleyDooley: Agartha
jimbojones1971: Niefelheim
KeithZ: Lanka
Shardphoenix: Pangaea
TimeLegend: Tir'Na'Nog
bbz: Fomoria
Nightfall: Oceania
For long I have been considering trying out a game with some of the mods from the dom3 goon community. The three mods incorporated are Awesome Gods (which make pretenders drastically more powerful in different ways: I suggest you experiment with them), and Awesome Endgame (which makes a number of summons, from elemental royalty to wraith lords and krakens, more powerful as well), and CBM.
I'd download and take a look at the mods themselves before taking the game up (in fact, that's what I'm going to do right now). www.proactiveapathy.com/dom3/mods/mods.html

Looking through the GoonDom3 thread, it's 30 gems.
I'm trying to find the fixed version for it on the Goons thread, but thus far it won't let me download it. So I'll put up a quick fix for it and we'll go with that (I believe there's also a bug with the Terichik sprite, but that's an added LA Atlantis summon so its all good).

So, Order is a no-brainer once again?
Order is back to +7% per tick instead of +6% gold per tick, and production is back to 2% per tick. However, a tick of production is now 25% resources (which means +/- 75% resources, making sloth/production potentially very ruinous/powerful). Growth is similar to the changes made in CBM, but minus the supply bonus/malus. Luck and Magic are unchanged in both.
I'd say that order is powerful for those who need gold, but it's very risky to take sloth or death to pay for it. A luck/turmoil strategy is still (as ever) viable. Something like Abysia would likely benefit drastically by taking prod and order.

Hmm, let me guess. You're going to try and leverage the freespawn Vinemen from the Master Druid, along with GoRing the Vine Kings for cheap, no-upkeep N3 mages? ;)
I tried that with some of the other freespawn pretenders like the Mother of Tuatha (they have the same base stats as Tuatha, just no magic/priest skill: kind of a bummer, since I was thinking Man might end up using them for thugs/SCs: still, the Tuatha troops are great blessed cavalry, and even without magic have great stats to kit out).

Heh. Well, I'm still unsure as to what I'm going to do (Tien Chi is overwhelming me with options), and I really wish I could make use of the Divine Throne chassis (dat bless), but then again Ermor has nothing good to bless in the first place. Then there's Ulm and the Great White Bull, but the lack of magic diversity doesn't sync well with my play-style (then again, cheap E/N bless is nice). I also don't want to do another 'heim game for awhile.
Bah.

just a quick question what happened to the gem generatrs at the awesome endgame? are they in or not
bbz
May 20th, 2012, 05:59 AM
Oh and another quick question. Wouldnt shadowshore be too packed for 12 people? especially if we dont get an underwater nation. The other game that is played on it which is the Multiplayer AAR game, has 8. I think up to 9-10 should be fine(9 with 1 underwater would be perfect). But 12 is a bit too much for a small map. (just my opinion)
P.s no need to answer the previous one. Gem-generators are made non-unique in awesome items mod not in the forbidden friendship.
Legendary League

Forbidden Friendship is a combination of AE, AG, and CBM. It pretty much maintains many of the balance changes in CBM, excepting some changes to some really big summons (zmey nerf, yays! Krakens have crazy magic paths).
If you guys would like, we can start with 10.
bbz
May 21st, 2012, 07:03 AM
10 people = 13.3 provinces per player which is pretty standard so yea I'd be happy to start.

bbz
May 21st, 2012, 06:18 PM
OK you download the mod. Unzip in the mod directory, then activate it. then go and create a pretender for your nation. Then you go to saved games directory/newlords and there is your pretender .2h file you send that via email at pretenders@llamaserver.net put as a subject of the email the exact name of the game(the way you see it in the link so: ATCU_A_Totally_Civil_Union)
Then after all the pretenders have been sent you will receive an email with the first turn attached to it. Create a new folder in the savedgames directory named by your preference, and save the first turn .trn file in it. Then you start dominions click start game and there will be a game named the way you named the folder. Click on it. Play it out, click end turn. then open the same folder that you created and there will be a .2h file in it (and the .trn file) so you just reply to the email that you received for the first turn attaching your .2h file.
Hope I didn't miss anything:)

Silly question, but when i do pretender creation I can't see anything different about any of the pretenders available. I've checked the mods activated when I create the pretender, and I am pretty sure I've got FF (only) active.
Two questions:
1) should I be able to notice anything different?
2) can someone give me an example or two of funky pretender things that show up for particular nations, so I can confirm to my own satisfaction that I am doing this right?
(The pretender costs look different - pretty sure Dragons are cheaper for example - so maybe everything is indeed as it should be. But I'd just like to make sure, for peace of mind!)

Jimbo,
Check out the Risen Oracle, available only to Agartha.
Vanilla CBM he has 1E and 1D and 60 points for a new path.
In FF, he has 3E and 3D and 20 points per new path.
Cheers,

Something is wrong with the great mother. She has WNE3 in the selection screen, yet when you level her magic, she has WNE1. Ingame, she gets the correct paths (i.e. WNE3 + whatever you boosted) but blesses dont apply.
bbz
May 22nd, 2012, 04:41 PM
Yea apparently thats how they made some things. Some pretenders were made powerfull for blesses others were made powerful only for magic paths. And obv some for both:)

don't take my word for granted, i just seemed to remember other pretenders that did the same thing
dojango
May 22nd, 2012, 08:11 PM
yeah, that's intended behavior. some pretenders get a boost to their blessings (the bulls, the divine throne) while some pretenders get boosts to their paths (forge lord) and some get penalties to their blessings (earth mother, virtue).

Guys is province 89 adjecent to province 83? I have an argument with a guy and I need to see who is right. (there is no connection between these two). And by definition from the game a caslte(in that case capital) will take all the resources from adjecent provinces).
HoleyDooley
June 6th, 2012, 11:07 AM
What is the argument? On page 42/43 in the rule book it clearly shows a province with a castle NOT getting resources from 2 provinces it is next to, but separated by a mountain range and thus not connected.
You know there was most likely a good reason they supplied a rule book with the game....... to explain the bloody rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How did Giant’s Rest get so many resources? Because the province now has a fortress, it
can utilize its full production capacity, so instead of 67 it now has a base of 134. When you
add the resources from the four adjacent provinces, you get 134, plus 10% of all the
following: 42 (4), 48 (4), 26 (2), and 30 (3). Those are the “actual” resource totals in Trisia,
Rhetha, Ostmark, and Obalshin, respectively.
bbz
June 6th, 2012, 11:08 AM
the argument is: is 89 adjecent to 83.
P.s I am not talking about the rules I know the rules I am proving a point.
HoleyDooley
June 6th, 2012, 11:14 AM
Are they adjacent?.....by the strict defination of english I guess they are, as their borders "touch", but their borders are that of an impassable terrain and thus there can be NO movement directly between them nor are any resources able to be exchanged between them should one of them contain a castle.
Still failing to see the issue here.
bbz
June 6th, 2012, 11:19 AM
OK so it is a question of definition. Do you preceive them as adjecent. Problem is Abyssia, and I had a Nap-3. Clause in the nap-3 all adjecent provinces to his capital are his. All adjecent provinces to my capital are mine. He did not mention 89 as a part of the provinces that are adjecent and thus I conquered it.(being owned by indipendents beforehand.) Now he blames me that I broke the nap clause. So I was wondering how is it preceived.( since most people know that there are quirks on the map and usually people preceive adjecent provinces, as provinces to which you have movement). So I was trying to clear that up for him, but he doesn't seem to want to listen.
Even Wiki defines Adjecent province as one at which you have movement and you can attack. (or heck type in google Dominions 3 adjecent province and see what comes up)
And regarding the meaning of adjecency I was asking in terms of a gameplay, or the way you understand it in this game. Since an agreement is in the bounds of the game, so all the parts of the agreements should be in the bounds of the game.
HoleyDooley
June 6th, 2012, 12:22 PM
Well Jolly Roger comes highly recommended from another party whom I trust implacably.........
Its certainly his right (why, because its a free world)to claim by his definiton that the two 2 provinces adjoin each other and thus you broke a NAP by taking it.
However I think if you polled 99 other DOM 3 players there is no way using common sense you could claim that province as being next to your capital, as the reason we don't want people "adjacent" to our capital is that they can close it down in a single move.
You can't close close his capital down in a single move in the circumstances described as the intervening terrain prevents this.
Jolly, I think you had better look up the definition of "common sense" in the dictionary, other wise you are going to find yourself in a LOT of unnecessary conflicts playing Dom 3.
You are new here I believe....hey, we all make mistakes.
By the way the way, I note all NAP breakers, and bbz is certainly not getting his name into my black book over this incident.
Jolly Roger
June 6th, 2012, 01:01 PM
Gentlemen,
assume bbz and me came to a mutual agreement on the subject of this issue meanwhile.
You are right, actually it´s a question of definitions.

1. Turning autohost off is not going to stop the turn from resolving when it is sheduled.
2. you missed 1 turn.
3. its your choice if you want to leave, could you please post on the forums for a replacement.
4. I don't like it either that LL hasn't replied to my messages and doesnt check the game thread regularly it is a job of the admin to make sure that everything is allright and if you don't have time to do that, find a co-admin

Sure thing.
HoleyDoley thinks he is funny and was using a dormant (i guess) immortal Risen Oracle to solo around. Flame Brand, Horror Helmet and some more stuff. At some point he thought he might just leave friendly domain. Sure enough, he had Astral 2 or 3 on his guy, which is really bad idea for Magic Duel. So, i teleported 2 Druids to magic duel him and obviously, against the odds, lost. This however didnt stop Rebourne the Risen Oracle from venturing outside of his domain. Last turn, he was really courageous, travelling into dominion -7. While buffing up, some guy of mine got a Paralzyze in and a couple of Smites and Hoof-Attacks later, he was gone for good. Since Rebourne is a rainbow, even a resurrection will cost him plenty of power. Than, and my guys found a bunch of items.

I could have beaten up Holey several turns ago, but unfortunally he was abusing (that is my point of view) the imbalanced (again my view) PD of Agartha, so i could never attack him, but only defend. You know, PD 20 adds Darkness and there no way you can beat it early to midgame. Long story short, i sacrified most of terrain to Abysia will doing as much damage as possible to Agartha. Finally culminating in this splendid kill (among others).
Nightfall
June 25th, 2012, 10:43 AM
EA Agartha having darkness on PD is a well known fact, and rushing him without something to deal with it was your mistake, trying to insinuate that HD is in any way exploiting is very poor form.
Ragnarok-X
June 25th, 2012, 11:00 AM
Your assumptions are wrong. I did not rush any one, in fact Agartha rushed me, taking a province on a mountain range, therefor opening me up to attack 3 provinces of mine and immediatly getting darkness up. He then advanced to the north and again, darknessed up. My army was superior (in my eyes) and i had mages but i could not attack due to darkness.
Please do not talk like you know a thing about ingame actions between Maverni and Agartha.
In addition, i said **i believe** darkness PD is op, and by the way, the general concensus seems to be that it indeed is.
HoleyDooley
June 26th, 2012, 09:24 PM
Ragnorak, your an idiot, state the facts as they are not what you would like them to be.
I did not rush you....you picked a fight with me. I had no intention of fighting you early...but YOU left me no choice.
Yes Darkness is OP and will be addressed in the next cbm patch, thus picking a fight with me early was NOT the smartest idea you have ever had.
Oh, and you diplomacy just sucked.....really sucked.....thus you will be eliminated from the game shortly.
I made mistakes in this game...freely admitted....I hope to be as perfect as you in my future games.
Bye bye ragnorak.

I agree with the extension that is needed. I changed the hosting interval to 36 hours. This should be ok for a while(until turn 40-50-60) And then we can change it to 48 hours and after 20-30 more turns if it gets to there to 72 hours.

Well, my god aspirant met the mighty cyclops pretender of Marverni on the battlefield, and prevailed. The one eye has been sent to Hades, to see if his priests can call him back once again.

More than a little alarmist and misleading, unless of course your definition of 'out of thin air' is somehow code for a huge investment in research and gems.
Pretty rude too, since I've been pretty nice and helpfull to you all game... I suspect the main reason though is that I beat you to Earth Blood.
Guess you'll just have to make do with Mother Oak and GoH, which I expect will be along shortly.
And the only buff I can see in CBM for EA is an extra random on the Kings, not sure that even makes up for the loss of natural clamming ability.
By the way, since I've gone to a lot of trouble to have scouts; I actually know, rather than just guessing, who's in the prime position at the moment. But strangely I don't feel the need to spew it out in public.
As for your 'suggestion', well, thanks to Ragnarok, I think that most of the other players will realise how horrid fighting my sacreds will be underwater, espescially when backed up by Kings, and that I'm still not a major threat to them on land...
Shardphoenix

Two globals. Two gemgens. One of them being the second best gemgen in game (the first being Arcane Nexus, and that says something).
Pretty rude too, since I've been pretty nice and helpfull to you all game... True, but you`re really the biggest fish in our small pond currently.
suspect the main reason though is that I beat you to Earth Blood.Never was a part of my strategy - too much Agartha/Marverni in this game.
Guess you'll just have to make do with Mother Oak and GoH, which I expect will be along shortly.Maybe. Or maybe not. Pan doesn`t really need GoH, you see - all Pan forces have recuperation and very long lifespans. And no native Death access in EA to leverage tartarians.
As for your 'suggestion', well, thanks to Ragnarok, I think that most of the other players will realise how horrid fighting my sacreds will be underwater, espescially when backed up by Kings So we totally should give you time to leverage your huge multi-gem income into endless streams of Wendigos and Hidden in Snow.

You only need 2d on your god to craft a skull staff and summon first wendigo. And then in several turns it`s big enough to summon another wendigoes. It`s not like tarts, where you need to climb all the way to D7 (so you need either a D5 pretender, RoS/RoW or unique scepter) and then not many of them are capable of summoning each other.
But even if you don`t have D - grendelkin are fine too. Or you can get into D game with krakens. You have more than enough W gems for it.

Most amusing turn.
I managed to nail one of Marverni's (=Ragnarok X's) marauding armies, with a bunch of communioned druids in it - overall, a quite satisfying victory, except that he nailed my pretender god on turn 2 or 3 with a soul slay. Well done, buddy - revenge for me nailing your pretender a few turns back :-D
Also, there is this tongue of land about three provinces wide to the south of me. Lanka originally owned it. Then Pan invaded it, with a larger army - but once you are in the corridor, there is not way out (unless you want to start a war with another country) - so then an army of Lankans followed the Pan dudes up and trounced them. Then Pan did it back. Then Lanka again. And now a HUUUUGE army of Pan dudes is marching up the corridor. Truly, this most excellent viewing :-)

Once again the sun set on the siege of Kailasa. The circumvallattion of the city was complete; armored mermen patrolled the earthen ramparts, keeping a close eye out for gorilla warriors. Inside the city, a haze of magic flickered and crackled in the night, but in the tents of Oceania's mage corps, it was quiet.
"I hate the land," muttered Shamem. "Three," he added.
Otyg slid three cards across the makeshift table. "At least we just have to sit here. Let the tritons do the fighting," he said.
"We'll see action soon enough," Shamem said. "Once the walls go down..."
"All we need to do is sit in the back and blast the damn dirty apes. It's the grunts who will do the fighting," retorted Otyg.
The light of the lantern flickered briefly as a gust of wind entered the tent. "Cyy? That you?" asked Shamem, turning towards the entrance.
"****!" shouted Otyg.
In the entrance of the tent was a golden being, smooth and radiant. When he saw the mages looking at him, he flicked open his jacket and grinned. Earth gems glittered in the radiant light.
"John Quincy Adams Ackbar!" shouted the Yakasha.
Otyg crawled away from the rubble of the tent. All around him he could hear shouting, crashing. Was the tide coming in? He felt himself drifing back to the ocean, towards home. Suddenly he opened his eyes. A grinning monkey stood above him, falchion upraised.

I don't think we are back to 24h. I can't tell though since I admitted my turn early. In the game settings it says 36h. Not sure what happened here? Anyone else experiencing that? Also if the stale is so bad (say you are at war and are have half of your territories taken from you due to the stale or loose a mjaor battle because of that then I might be willing to roll back the turn (but generally its a bad idea coz there can be a lot of problems with a roll back ending up with screwing up the whole game so I'm not gonna do that unless its really really bad. You can PM me and try to explain what happened to you and so that I could try and judge if haveing the rollback is worth the risk.
I'm not sure if the co-admin has changed something or if it has been a llamaserver problem. I'll look into it. In the meanwhile I extend the current turn by 48 hours so that I can get a reply from shardphoenix and give myself some thinking/acting time.
Oh also another thing, I always declare in the main thread if I were to change the hosting interval, and also I'd never change it to less time that its supposed to be(due to the plans that people have made).

Guys, I'm not sure If I'm the only one that got this message, I will have to double check to see what happened. But apparently I had an unexplained increase in wealth which might come from cheating>???
Edit: my treasury supply seems to be ok, no increase there.
Edit2: I also seem to have -12 nature gems wtf?
Edit3: Ok I see what the problem seems to be. I ordered one of my guys to forge the chalice last turn. Usually that artifact costs 40 nature gems and 25 astral gems. And I had that covered last turn. Although I guess due to the mod the cost of this artifact was changed to 40 nature gems and 25 more nature gems.(not sure if it was intentional).
I will check in the debug mod to play around with it. and see what happens.
edit: you are able to forge the chalice with fewer resources than what you have.(due to the change/bug in the gem cost).
Now I have to options: since I dont like to cheat.
1.trade up my astral gems into nature gems so that I dont have a negative nature gems and I get the ammount of nature gems that I get per turn which is +6 (I would have been able to do that the last turn as well If I had noticed that).
2. discard the chalice and forge it again.(I feel that thats gonna be a bit unfair on me but its your call guys).
3. I roll-back the turn. Submit only my turn (since I'm not in a war with anyone I cannot abuse the roll-back and see ifno one gets a: player bbz has cheated message(hopefully).
Turns that have been submitted for the previous turn should be the same. Although the random generator might change the outcome of some of the battles that you guys had(if you had any) So its up to you guys to decide what to do.
P.s Options 1 and 2 rely on the chalice being the only reason for the cheating. So I feel that roll-back might be the best option.(if there is some other reason for the cheat message that I have missed) But option 3 might change the outcome of some of the battles. So let me know what you guys want to do Until then the game is suspended (I will extend the turn if there is a need to and the issue is not resolved by then.

Ok just to let you know. doing the roll back wouldnt involve any of you submitting a turn(I think llama server keeps the previously submitted turns in its database. So only I will submit a turn and then force hosting this way we get the new turn and everyone has submitted a turn.) So no extra micro will be required from you guys.
Although you will have to submit the current turn 50(for those who have already submitted it) again.

My suggestion would be to just alchemise the pearls, roll backs almost always cause problems.
On a side note, apparently the chalice is not unique in this mod, since there is already one sitting in my lab. Would have been nice to know that before I forged it, as it was purely a denial move.

Yep, I'm done for. The only good news is that Pan is going to be the guy who captures all my land instead of Marverni, which makes me very happy :D

You dont seem to have scouts around. Im dead since 15 turns, only using recruited armies and researching stuff. I would not be able to capture anything at all :D

Sounds like this has been the fight of the dead men then! All my expansion parties got smashed early on, so I never really got going on this one - no money, and no land.
I think not having score graphs on changed things a lot, though - in a game with graphs everyone would have seen I had no research / income / gems and I would have been killed a lot earlier.
So I think I like the idea of playing without score graphs!

It would be nice if the person with the administrator privileges for the game could change Klaus email to mine. It's simply my forum name at gmail dot com. Thanks.

Oh, well... Oceania started a war against me, breaking a NAP with OVER 9000 tidal waves.

I have no idea what your talking about...
Although it's nice to see you admitting to keeping a NAP with me secret at the same time that your openly trying to get other people to attack me.

Although it's nice to see you admitting to keeping a NAP with me secret The only reason I was keeping a NAP with you is that Pan can`t really wage war with underwater nation. In fact, on this map NOBODY can.
But make no mistake - victory isn`t going to be easy for you.

Im pretty sure i had a NAP with Oceania since WAY back that just got broken without formally ending it. Not that it matters, but it aint nice one bit Nightfall.
Nightfall
September 18th, 2012, 10:29 PM
Nope... Only formed 2 NAP's all game, and your definately not one of them, one is still in effect and one of them was illegitimately breeched by the other party.
Your blatant lies are not appreciated.

It is no lie. Im pretty sure we had a NAP going on since way back, turn 15 or so. But its no problem.
Nightfall
September 19th, 2012, 09:29 PM
It is a problem, just not in the the way you think...
There has never been a NAP between us; there has never even been a NAP proposed between us. I have every private message since the start of this game saved. The only private message I have had from you the entire game is a query about purchasing a water booster from me.
You are a complete and utter douchebag, I'm not the only person in this game that thinks so, and everyone in the community needs to know it...

Just realised that there is even a post in this thread of you whining in meta about 2 territories I took off you in, I think, turn 33 and 34 that makes no mention of this fabrication.

What most people fail to appreciate is that Ragnarok-X owns a Dr Who style Tardis, which he frequently uses both to change the past and also to travel to alternate dimensions.
This can lead to confusion, as when you discover either that you have apparently been cheating (say, by having PD that gives you darkness with CBM1.92 Agartha), or indeed that you have a NAP with him that you don't remember signing and have no evidence of.
In this case, I dare say what has happened is that in an alternate version of this universe a version of you (possibly also a cyborg pirate living on one of the moons of Saturn) DID sign a NAP with the Raggster - but due to a schism in the time-space continuum, all evidence of said NAP has been lost. Apart from the single, priceless memory in Raggy Baby's head.
So rather than being upset, we should be thanking Ragnarok-X for being such a beacon of hope and learning in this otherwise sad and empty universe, by sharing his memories and experiences with us. On behalf of us all, thanks Raggie - I can honestly say, the game wouldn't be the same without you!

I didn't have time to review the earlier turns, but was going to. No need to now, because I could have sworn The Ones from beneath the waves had invaded much earlier in the game provinces belonging to Marveni. Nightfall has just confirmed my memory hasn't failed me.
Holding breath now for the forthcoming apology to Nightfall from Rag X...
Holding....holding......holding...damn I had to take a breath!

Then I must get angry a lot, because I rarely do well, but have a hell of a time playing, specially against the likes of you Rag X.
Oh wait, no apology..........now how did I know there was never going to be one?
Thats because Rag X is a total.......(you fill in the blanks).

I´ve watched your last stand at Marverni and must admit you fought a heroic battle.

Heroic it was. I was hoping the Gifts would by accident hit a Triton King, but instead all i got was stupid cavemen and soulless. More luck next time, maybe.

Did you record it, by chance? I'm always interested to see big climactic battles, as its a good way to improve my understanding of the game.

Just realised that bbz and Timelegend have like 7 consecutive stales???
Both approaching 20 stales each too, so it's probably a lot more then that...

Also kind of curious how someone can be at war with a staling player for multiple turns without saying something...

A break for this period would be much appreciated.
Thanks, Klaus

I know it has been a long time, but I'll do so anyway. I'm sorry I didn't inform you guys about getting out of the game. I had unexpected trip that cause me to miss a lot of turns. So when I got back I noticed I missed at least 4 turns and decided to go to AI mode, but it seems as if it didn't go through. So again I wish to apologies.

Good call SP.
Not as big a truck that will hit you shortly...oh wait...you staled, I guess that means you have given up?
Check the log guys, Nightfall has this in the bag..only Jolly is man enough to keep submitting turns.
GG and grats Nightfall.

BTW, thanks for that Zmey, Nightfall. He is quite handy. :D

In case it's not obvious, this has become the most mind numbingly boring and pointless game I've ever had the displeasure to be involved in.
The only reason I'm still making a minimal effort and submitting turns is out of respect for Jolly Roger.
It's disappointing to add more people to your blacklist from one game than you had in total from seven other games.

No.
But at this stage I'd be willing to call it a draw because it's simply not fun to have half the map stalling every turn.

Finially we have a password change so that the game has admin again.
As I going away on Friday for the holidays, the game has been postphoned until after the new year.
