omg Ozymandias got in his turn.

I've set pangaia to AI.

Edit: [censored]. supposedly there's a known bug where if you set someone to AI using the master password, you can recieve a "CD key violation". I now need to have esben delete my .2h files, and I got a forced stale turn

well at least that will level the playing field then with ozzy's stales... hehe

yah, but he only got one stale as well. and at least he deserved one

this bug, otoh, is a real pisser. in fact, i can't submit another move until Esben deletes the .2h files.

yeah that does suck... does this happen every time you set someone to AI? i could see why, because you log into their turn and and then yours, and since you have the same CD key as yourself, the game thinks that suddenly the player you set to AI has the same copy of the game as you do, thus violating the CD key policy. interesting.

yah, i think that's how it works. rather defeats the usefulness of having a master password. Lost my indy mercs too, which I actually rather needed.

Tauren has agreed to take over djtool's T'ien Chi, which is great. and i doubt the loss of mictlan to AI will change much

Ozy did stale a turn, but the latest is in. hopefully this is just a temporary difficulty.

I'm sorry about my stales, I've been moving and haven't had regular access to the internet. I only started two games on purpose, because I understand they can become time intensive towards the end game, but real life does intervene. It seems that you have cruelly punished me for my stales too. C'est la guerre. I just won't have to pay upkeep for those armies anymore.

Anyway if there is someone who could step into my spot (hopefully just temporarily) that might help in my struggle with you. Otherwise I'll soldier on as best I can.

well, you've only had two stales, as opposed to one for me, and the first of them I avoided trying to wipe out your army.

the second time however I wasn't so sympathetic...

still an entertaining and difficult war all around, no doubt.

you could start a thread looking for a temporary sub, or ask around in #dominions on irc.gamesurge.net.
