Norfleet's message was several days ago - I held the server on quickhost for you then.

I don't *think* anyone has staled so far. But then I am not paying THAT much attention to such things, since we are now on the originally planned 24-hour non quickhost.

I see to be having a problem of some kind. The game has told me I have an unexplained increase of wealth. My turn bears only vague resemblance to what I told it to do Last turn. My position can be described as only mediocre at best. Should I go AI in light of this, or would you all just prefer I stay in and play it as it lies?

I think it would probably be better for you to go AI, otherwise there will probably be a lingering suspicion of cheating. But it is not really my decision.

Probably. I'll just do that right now.

And YellowCactus....I will get you next time! And your monkey, too!

I saw the message this morning, which caught me a bit by surprise. It's a bit disturbing that this sort of glitch could happen.

Personally, I'd say don't drop. Unless there's a sudden stratospheric jump for Caelum in the score graphs, I'm going to assume it's a bug rather than cheating.

Well, thanks for the vote of confidence anyway. If it weren't for the new alarm system, I'd have probably just shrugged and figured it as a kind of random event, but rather than try to go for a win which could be potentially tainted by this baffling occurrence, I think Sheap is probably right, and it's best for all if I drop. Thanks anyway, though.

Catch you on the cradle map Norfleet. Your Vampire queen was a riot to watch while she schooled those indies!
