BAG (Started!)

[llamabeast]

Hi guys - really sorry, I am getting a bit swamped - I have a big deadline coming up and have hardly been in the office - and no internet at home still. Aaagh!

I have to leave in a couple of minutes and don't think I will make it back to the lab tonight, but I promise I will definitely start the game tomorrow - really sorry to cause delays. Apologies for being over-optimistic about starting at the weekend - I only had those few minutes on a machine all weekend in the end! It is very odd for someone like me who's used to spending far too much time on the internet.

As for the rejection of updated pretenders - I've got all your messages, and my mail backups have stores of all your updated pretenders. You've hit a known bug that I really should remember to fix. I will make sure to use the latest versions of pretenders before I start the game.

Actually on looking again I am also somewhat surprised it rejected your revised pretenders - normally that happens when the game is full, which this one isn't. Hmm.

Guys, I have to exit this game. It's taking so long to start, and I would rather sign on another.

So Man is free. Good luck, everyone!

Nikolai, it will start today!! Are you sure?

[llamabeast]

Hurrah, we've started!! Really sorry again for the delay. Should be rolling at full speed now though.

Have to say, I'm excited about this game, it looks great. Nice choice of settings and map, and it's cool to have the mod nations and late pythium in there.

I controversially didn't remove Nikolai, as it just seemed too sad to give up on a game starting on the same day as it starts. If he really doesn't want to play hopefully we can find a sub quickly - but Nikolai, you should play!

Now, Pythium and the mod nations won't actually have received their turns yet - little technical hitch. I will work on that now. Been Dominions-fixing for the last hour and a half - really hope my boss doesn't walk in!

Okay, I've got the turn files for Pythium, Vaettiheim and Ulm Reborn sent out. I'm optimistic they will work fine in future turns - let me know if there's any problems.

The problem with Pythium, you see, is that it is the only vanilla nation whose files don't have 'late_' or something in their names - it's just 'pythium.2h'. Weird.

Anyway, a couple of other things. Firstly, you'll need the hotfix mod. I'll attach it to the next post. Secondly, if you're not sure how to actually play your turn, read the LlamaServer FAQ (linked in my signature).

HotFix mod!

Have a good game guys!
