Could you switch the ALLTheNations port 2310 game to a quickhost with no time limit for a while? I have been having trouble connecting to that one since the patch.

There are only three players left, I am the second strongest, and the third is trailing by a lot. If Ermor stops playing it's turns, Machaka is going to win by default.

Johan: That sounds awesome! The thought of NOT having to hunt all my mages for clams and having scores of scouts for fetishes.... And it's good to hear that network bugs are being quashed

I'll change the settings for Allthenations/2310 to quickhost only.

I'm not sure what the logic behind this is....how, exactly, is the ability to change the costs of items supposed to do anything? Nobody's forcing you to hunt your mages for clams and fetishes: Nobody will kill your mother and rape your dog if you don't bother with it, or just use the pool button...

Norfleet, what's with you? Cheer up already!

I would like to play with a mod that disables clams+fetishes. Is that okay with you? I'm not forcing you to participate.

As I have stated often, the pool option is worse than the hunting option. And clam+fetishes are the best sources of gems. That can hardly be ignored.

Nothing. I just didn't follow the apparent logic involved in the idea that being able to modify their costs would have any effect on the level of micromanagement involved.

The pool option is worse than the hunting option? I'm not quite sure what you mean - are we losing something in translation here? While fetishes are somewhat more annoying, with having to inspect every single scout to see when he's about to croak and all, or give them to undead units, pooling from clams or blood stones is painless and quick: Slap pool, and all your gems are transferred to the lab. No muss, no fuss. It's actually far simpler than, say, blood hunting for a nation that also performs sacrifices on a regular basis.

I've been through this with Mose myself, so if I may...

the pool option doesn't "work" for him because he doesn't like hunting through his units to put the pooled gems back on those commanders that he wants to keep them (if they are at a lab when he issues the pool command).

Pluse removing gem producing items all together would have a fairly profound effect on the game. Particularly large maps with lots of people.

Not necassarly better... but a different game
which could also be a lot of fun.
