Did you attack blind on turn one and lose your initial army already? Naughty boy!!!

Actually, the game looks like a good start to me so far, mainly because I can't see anyone else as yet (lol). But I must admit that I am quite excited just to playing my first on-line game.

Oddly enough my brother's orders seem to have been accepted. I'm figuring that it will work if we both just use my user to take our turns. The only reason I didn't do that in the first place was becaue I wanted him to not need need me to login every time he wanted to take his turn. I would not be as rude as to ask if we could start the game over but I certainly wouldn't complain if we did.

I only ever did that once. Now I never attack before turn 4.

I do not really care about starting over I just thought I would offer to Starwarsluke. I do not think tinkering with my pretender would improve it just change it!

A bit early to tell thogh R'lyeh is not very variable.

Aku:

I encourage you to make a quick executive decision about whether to start over (and I think it would be nice to start over so everyone has a fair start).

Thanks.

Well... call me a flip-flopper... but I just finished my 2nd turn, and it would be nice to just keep going...

Either way...

i've been having second thoughts about my pretender config all day, so to hear people thinking about restarting sounds good! Plus I completly forgot about a password (you'd think they'd remind you about that in the manual)

Well the only problem to start over is if Luke and his brother both cant do their turns. But the only way to really find out is for it to host to the 3rd turn. Maybe the best thing to do is to see if luke and his brothers orders both go through find for turn 3. If they dont it would suck to have an AI in and probably best to start over with 9 people then. And about the password thing I doubt anybody is going to log on someone elses turn.

"And about the password thing I doubt anybody is going to log on someone elses turn."

I have just done this by mistake in another game so it is possible.

I do not usually remember to add passwords so this is not an issue for our game for me!

As Aku said it would be better to start again than have an AI otherwise we should go on.

Well it is turn 3 now. Luke did you and your brother's turn both work? We need to decide based upon this question.
