Massive Humans vs Humans Game/Lets Player Tracker

[Vokarya]

I think we should play a few turns now that (I think) we are past the initial issues of getting everyone set up and see how this new turn order actually plays. I was able to take my turn right around my optimal time.

I would actually be more in favor of starting a new game from scratch than rolling back the current game to any point. I wouldn't want ANY knowledge of this game to carry over.

I think we will get the same problem again. I don't think all of us will be playing in a year, so after new guys take over, the GMT will not match again

Edit: Also I recommend you all to make a password in "your details" in the menu. Because I can just update my SVN and see your turns

Odd, I swear I did. If not, c'est la vie, I'll do so next time when I get the chance.

So has Praetyre been on at all in the past 48 hours?

We should probably tack on when the last turn was taken in the Turnlist file, and standardize it at GMT 0.
That way we can properly give 48 hours.

Yes he has. Last night before I left.

In the SVN menu? I need more details please.

And it takes me putting in my Password 3 times to get the SVN log to show. I'm on a Wireless ISP.

Yes I also have to type it in 2-3 times. No ingame where you name your avatar and empire you can type a password. There is now a 4 digit default password but it is already typed in when you take your turn. See this image

Change the password in it. And you have to type it every time it is your turn. In that way other can't look on your civ by updating the svn when it's your turn

No - in game. In the 'Your details' section where you change your civ name and so forth. Setting a password there will stop anyone else (accidentally or otherwise) loading the save that is meant for you (i.e. - one that is on your turn)

BTW - I assume there will be no turn Monday since TB didn't take his turn, and generally Padams (and I usually) are off-lien by the time he gets on normally. I guess we need Praetyre and TB to take their turns today and Padams can take his Tuesday (Ausi time), then I'll get back in sync Tuesday morning (US time)

Edit- do we know why TB and Praetyre didn't take their turns yesterday BTW?

I've got my day off today (happens once a month) so I can have my turn any time from now to the next 15 hours. Awesome right! So that should semi shift thiings back into place... Oh and btw its Tuesday for me now at 7:52am.

Also we are planning a way to make our game let our players have turns out of order but only 1 turn per day... Check out our discussions here and Congradulate our fantastic programmer koshling for being able to make this possible!

Whoa there! I'm just tossing ideas around, and it's MOST unlikely (even if we do it, and it' probably a few weeks' work if we do) that it will be compatible with existing games.

 

[Mega Nix]

lol my gmt is +1 and Praetyre is +13. Can't be more wrong

I think we may have to make the rather callous decision that if you aren't on the forums every day (to track the game) you can't play. I know it's harsh, but if we don't do it we'll never get anywhere in this game.

Or we can just have no turn order (but you can't have more turns than anyone else) which would encourage people to play faster and at any time of the day they want. Still this will take weeks for koshling to program so who wants this feature? Vote now and if we get enough interest Koshling may work on it. Don't forget to congratulate him for his awesome work though... he only volunteers to do this!

Is there a way to skip their turn if they are not active?

 

[Koshling]

Is there a way to skip their turn if they are not active?

No. We'd need someone to act as a proxy player for everyone who was absent, so they would need to know all the passwords.

Are we hitting the "panic" button already?

Give the guy a while XD, we did have a time limit of 2 days. Past that we can let someone sub in his place if they wish to.

 

[12padams]

Lol and you guys wanted more people to join... thats why I removed the original limit of 20, put it down to 15 then freaked out and stopped accepting new players once we had 11. Even 11 people is really hard to manage!
