I've been dragging myself back to this game again and again. If it isn't clear that I haven't had a focused agenda for Marignon for the past several turns, my inability to defend against the barrage of assassination spells should be proof of that. Even before the huge set of stales, I was starting to just submit "maintenance" turns recruiting wizards, forging gear, summoning stuff. Especially when I thought this game was going to end, I just stopped really caring.

So, like if Baalz is okay with shutting down Legends of Faerun with the 2nd or 3rd most powerful nation at his commands because his turns have gone to boring-slog mode, I don't see any reason why I can't bail on this one for the same reason.

I won't submit an AI turn unless I'm asked to, but please find a sub.

Well, I couldn't claim I was feeling sure of any victory chances against you, especially with that AN up. In fact, all of us are worried about what you're bringing all the time, considering your huge gem income and the strikes that you deliver, even though you're "just submitting maintenance turns".

I mean, when the game was about to stop, you stated "I'm happy to continue whatever happens.", and it would be obvious that a game in that stage was always going to take some time to play. Would be a shame to let this one here die, now that the conclusion approaches... :/

I'll postpone for 48hrs, until this matter is resolved by discussion - don't know if a subbing that late in the game is a realistic idea...?

I was pretty pissed when I put up my last post. Give me a day to think it over. I don't really feel like ruining this game for anyone.

Ping - may I ask for the result of your "think-over"? Added another day delay.

I would also be mightily interested in the outcome of that thinking.

Together with a delay. Hey, Jazzepi, don't leave us hanging! (we know you were around in the forums :P)

Sorry, I keep putting this off.

Baalz's poor admin skillz, and inability to follow his own personal pledge shouldn't affect this game, so I'll try to continue. And I'll get a turn in tonight.

Well, I had not really bothered to check out other games than this one here. I'm really sorry that there are .. disputes out of the game which are not related to ingame stuff.

And as much as I'd love to play this game, I'd also love to have people play a game here - means, your nations are fighting each other, not the players. There probably is no fun in submitting a turn for a game where you feel pissed by either the conditions or another player - so I'd love to get you sorted out that stuff.

Please notice I haven't mentioned anyone specific "you".

Ahem. Bad style probably, but I had prepared my turn to be finished tonight. Maybe half an hour left to do, but I got so tired I wouldn't get a decent last stand put up - so I'll postpone it for the morning (~9 hours) and will submit ASAP then. Hope you don't mind too much.

Toran.

Dang. I have just returned from hospital where I was for a knee surgery. They had promised I would get back yesterday, but then decided to keep me there for a boring night. With two games to complete for submitting a turn, I wouldn't really manage to get a single one in with a proper turn. I hope you don't mind me if I postpone for 24 hours - the lengthy games/turns take their toll, but I still enjoy 'em - hope you will as well, even with that delay.
