The problem is that Ruatha leaves in mid-september Roanon, so I won't be back at school when he leaves (where I would be able to get a backup connection if needed). Still, there should be no problems. Hopefully. Barring the unexpected, and Murphy's Law.

Alneyan, you can't leave NGC4 man! we need you in our fight to save the quadrant from Primeval domination!

Ruatha: I can take over NeGOC5 if you want (I am not in that game) or NGC4 too (but I do play in that). I don't find being a host takes up much of my time at all...

And, hey, talking about Sweden, you wouldn't happen to be from Lund would you? I had some good buddies of mine who always bragged about a student festival they had there every four years or so that is apparently the biggest party in the world. I'm thinking about trying to go some time...

Anyways, my services are available...

Thanks,

Alarik

Hi all.

I was convinced I'd already killed Spleunkers... obviously not, done so now!

So, three who can host NeGoC5 and perhaps Alneyan in NGC4.
As Alneyan already has agreed to host NeGoC5 and has extensive knowledge of the rules I'd preferr if he hosted that game.

If we could find someone else for NGC4 that would be best, that way we wouldn't loose a player.
But in NGC4 also I don't think "not playing" isn't as important as in NeGoC5 where rules discussions are much more common as the rules are more complicated.
But if we don't find anyone else for NGC4 we'll ask the other players if Alneyan can contunue playing and hosting aswell.

And I'm not from Lund but I guess it can be fun there, it's too far south from here, only been there once.
Try it and let us know!

That all makes sense.

I really couldn;t get a grasp on the NeGoC5 rules when I subbed for Alneyan for a few turns - I was just confused.

And I really really don't want to leave NGC4 - my Aether lords are making mincemeat of Roanons' fleets, and I can't abandon them in their moment of triumph!

If you could hurry up a bit I could take over hosting NGC4 after you have eliminated me from the game. You don't want to unnecessarily prolong my suffering, do you ?

Well, we're trying to be merciful. And I want Alneyan to get his fair share of shots in as well. You know, spread the wealth, that sort of thing.

What wealth? My humble empire and its poor production values are not really worth competing for

I wouldn't have a problem with it.

There's a known bug in PBW where a killed empire sometimes comes back. What you need to do is kill the empire, then go to the Game Admin screen and hit Update Options. (You don't have to change anything, just hit the button.)
