Rofl.

As much as I would love to share this confidence in ultimate Mictlan supremacy, I'm forced to concede that the loss (with no compensation) of 3 fully equipped devils per turn is not sustainable.

The harsh reality is that success I've had has been 100% due to the element of surprise - an asset that is now fully spent. Now you hold the most important asset - experience.

For example: How many noobs do you know who, against an astral opponent, would leave two fully equipped arch devils out in the open with no Mind Hunt protection? I only know of one.

Politicking aside, this has been a great game, it's taught me a lot and I've enjoyed it immensely. I'd like to win, of course, but even if I don't I'm sure I'll look back on it as a highlight of my Dom career.

I would like to request that hosting goes to a 36 hour interval. I am finding scripting the old druids is taking a while.

My suggestion that an all out attack on Mictlan would be a good idea still holds - I know I ain't getting any stronger.

I concur with the first half of that.
The turnaround shall be set to 36 hours.

Hrumph - nothing works.
This is really demoralizing

The price of treachery my friend, the price of treachery

Thanks for the Ice Devil - Bifrons is my favourite and plays best with my mages.

And what happened to "highlight of my career"

No, as I've said before, its the price of inexperience.

That's exactly what the early part of the game has been, but its going downhill now. I don't think anyone enjoys banging their head against a brick wall.

Its a vicious cycle. I don't enjoy the endgame, so I don't practice it, so I don't get good at it, so I don't enjoy it.

Okay Zap asked me to take over for him as Mictlan (and admin I guess) so I'm back in.

Could someone (everyone?) PM me and let me know who I am at war and peace with?

You are certainly at war with Marveni. And really, really should be at war with everyone else but I am pretty sure you are not.

I would like to say any arch devils or ice devils not currently in your roster are cursed, horror marked and afflicted shadows of their former selves - but again I am not sure that is true.

Sadly I suspect Neifelheim and I have been reduced to playing the roles of unidentifiable roadkill #1 and unidentifiable roadkill #2.

Could I request a 24 hour extension - I should be able to get the turn in on schedule if things go to plan - but work today has been messy.
