Default Re: Broke computer. Need 9 games subbed!

I'm still pretty much a newbie, I just got lucky in one or two and am near the top in a couple more newbie-oriented games.

Anyway, this is going to be a temporary thing. I just didn't want to hold up 9 games while I went looking for a monitor.

If all 9 of my games were turn 40+, I'd be in trouble I had 90% free time up until recently. I still have a lot. I am only expecting to need subs for 2-3 turns. That said, take your pick, first come, first served, with my blessings.

Just PM the game admin and post in the appropriate forum, then go ahead and post here to let everyone know the game no longer needs a sub.

Thanks ;( I'm really sorry to everyone I'm involved in games with. Being in 9 is really irresponsible, I JUST CAN'T GET ENOUGH! I hope you understand.

And no, the games have not come near overwhelming me yet. I still have to restrain myself when I see a new game posted

I will figure something out pretty quickly, I think. I have several options. Thanks again for the input.

Edit: Although I was looking at this as a blessing in disguise. Encouragement to you know, see the sun occasionally and whatnot

Have you used the usb port to connect a monitor? This may work.

Ok konming, let Pashadawg know you are taking over for me (at least temporarily)

In other news, I used the "magnifier" program in Vista and managed to play all my turns last night with 1/5 of my monitor working (and little pink, aqua and yellow lines running vertically through the remainder). So technically I can still play, but GAD is it a pain in the arse. What this means, pretty much, is that I could still use some help with the really big game -- Lanka. Which chrispedersen has volunteered for.

I've also got a solution for the monitor problem, which should take less than two days.

If you're still particularly keen on subbing a particular game, just ask, but I think I'll be okay if Lanka is taken off my hands for a few turns.

Thanks everyone.

OK, I guess you can continue to player RAND then. I cannot find that game thread anyway.

glad you found a work around - cancel my madwar sub then

though, you will need to lose a couple of those games at least - that's my advice, go out in a blaze of glory in 3 of them
