I'm pretty much dead as well. whatever Kailasa and TC decide is fine with me, as they're the 2 remaining powers in the game.

Er, Blackguard, I see you submitted a turn...have we worked out what we're going to do yet? I dunno, but I thought we're supposed to wait for a rollback decision one way or the other before submitting turns dude.

I'll go read the Llamaserver page and see.

EDIT: Funny, I checked out Llamaserver FAQ and did a forum search, can't find any instructions on doing a rollback, though I'm sure I've read some somewhere before. I think basically we should all delete our .2h files, rollback, and then resubmit new turns. Trying to send the old .2h file again definitely screws everything up.

In fact the main interesting thread I found had lots of people saying don't do it unless the game is bugged...like i said, I don't care that much though I'd try a rollback since there aren't so many players left, shouldn't be a problem.

Hopefully, I just remember reading game threads where some people did one thing, others did another and it all went pear shaped.

In fact, perhaps it would be easier just to go ahead without a rollback. I mean, I think it hurts me a bit more because of sieging/disease issues, but I don't mind too much...better to be safe than lose the game entirely.

That might have been this game thread. We had a previous roll back suffer some difficulties, but everything got put right in the end. That said I'm happy with whatever Penguin Zero decides.

And I'm happy either way, too. Flip a coin, I guess? Or whichever's easiest.

Ok, flipping a coin. Heads roll back. Tales press on. Heads it is, doh. Ok will do roll back tomorrow. I think the key thing is to delete our 2h files so we don't submit them out of sequence.

Hi guys, some fairly serious real life has intervened, and I have no way of making the deadline for this rollbacked turn by Sunday 6:15 llamaserver time. If the clock were extended by 18 hours, I believe I would be able to submit the following turn in time.

If you'd like to find a sub then please feel free, I could post an ad for a sub in approximately 10 hours time from now. I could fill in the subbing player with info about the position from that time on as well.

Nevertheless I feel as if I will be able to make the following few turns before Abysia is extinguished if an extension were granted, or find a sub if that turns out not to be the case.

Cheers dudes,
meursy
