i think it is useful to request extensions here to infrom everyone of a possible extension, so they know what to expect, how to plan their time.
I think its a minor use, but doesnt cost me anything.

I also would like to join the request to pause the game over weekend, my team has some serious issues to work out.

1) It doesn't help us plan, b/c unless Ironhawk sees it, nothing will happen.
2) If Ironhawk *does* see your request, he will post to this thread announcing any extension.
3) Depending on circumstances, we're likely able to guess who you are!

Now, personally, I don't really *care* about anonymity in this game. But the rules are that we should attempt to preserve it, so.... do so!

Ok, hosting seems to be postponed. It looks like we have time to resolve some severe problems that appeared and continue without more delays.

I'm back now and looking at the queue of requests...

It appears that llamabeast paused the game at someone's request. So that should solve the pause requests.

There has been another request made about a bug which has impacted one player's game. It may require some tricks to resolve it or, as a last resort, a rollback. Tho personally I very much dislike rollbacks and would prefer to just continue. I will let you know how it goes.

Arghhh! No rollbacks!

Especially in a game of this size, with teams. Whatever it is, it isn't a bug it's a feature.

Yeah, we should try to avoid any rollbacks, everyone knows they are evil.

Quick! Modify the specification at the root of the thread to specify no-rollbacks.

My partner quit after playing 2 or 3 turns of the possible 12. I'm trying hard, but so far havent found a replacement. If u know anyone who might be interested please inform me or get him to PM me.

I strongly do not intend to play any more turns with my expartner's team.

thanks

I can't receive my turn files, requesting resend didn't help me. What's going on?
