Pit Boss Avalon game thread

[Darius_Silva]

Dandridge (Finnish empire) probably think he has nearly defated me (Mali) too with his cowardly unprovoked attack.

Well, just because he has tons of units surrounding my capital at the moment doesn't mean I am finished. Infact, I bet in like 20 turns Finland will be history, *grin*

Dandridge (Finnish empire) probably think he has nearly defated me (Mali) too with his cowardly unprovoked attack.

You know quite well that you provoked the attack by making an arrogant demand . A friendly nation don't lay a claim to a city of his neighbour like you did.

 

[Darius_Silva]

I advise everyone to attack Dandridge the deceiver and his evil finnish empire.

He's attacking me with all he's got so I think his cities are pretty much undefended. Easy grab for his western neighbours. Go and get them before I do.

Uhm... there is obviously no love between you two

I just try to connect to the game and was connecting but lost connection

A well 10 hours left on the timer, guess I will try in the morning.

 

[Darius_Silva]

The Mali capital has fallen.

 

[Dandridge]

I lost connection to the Pitboss when trying to log in. Now the server seems to be down.

 

[Fosse]

I'm getting in right now, but had trouble earlier. Try it again and you should be okay.

 

[namliaM]

No problems connecting

 

[Dandridge]

Darius Silva, I didn't have time to wait any longer for you to finish your turn, but had to make my moves before you. I didn't attack any of your units, but just moved forward 1 step.

If you want to return to the normal order and move before me, please try to finish your turn a little earlier. I usually must finish my turns before 21 GMT.

 

[Mîtiu Ioan]

Conquistador - you just made a double-move during our war.

I don't feel this is correct - especially because of this I couldn't evacuate my units near your capital ...

Regards

 

[HitAnyKey]

ionut, how come you did not end your turn? The turn is now held up because of you with over 7 hours left on the clock, when the new turn could have started 6 hours ago.

 

[Mîtiu Ioan]

Because I was too nervous when I saw one of my axeman, one spearman and one War Elephant killed too early/easy because a double-move !!

And for that reason I wrote the previous message and didn't press <END TURN>.

 

[portuga]

Double moves can be very frustrating...
I play mostly PBEM and not many pitboss games because double moves have taken away my joy of playing in a couple other pitboss games.

 

[namliaM]

Double turns are troublesome... in particular if there is a dispute...

It does look to be a double move, where Ionut did take his turn within the allowed 12 hours...

Should we wait for Conquistador to reply to the accusation? (sorry spelling?)

??

Could this be the reason the game seems down? Or is this a happy co-incidence?? (again spelling?)

 

[g_storrow]

I can't connect at the moment?

 

[Fosse]

We should let Conquistador speak, of course. Has anybody emailed him to be sure he has seen this thread?

Many times double moves are done out of ignorance of house rules/previous discussions or out of innocent failure to notice you are making a double.

This does not excuse them. We should all be aware of each game's house rules, and in war we should always ensure we are taking turns.

Hopefully this can be easily rectified in game, but if not and if a rollback is necessary to correct the issue, that's fine (too bad if it comes to that, but ifit must be done then it must).

 

[Dandridge]

Can't connect. Server still down?

 

[Fosse]

Up for me a little bit ago.

 

[lplayer]

Soory about the service but due to high winds the electrics have been on / off all day. I ahs to recover from Conquisidor move at 21:30 as it seem sthat Pitboss crashed between then and th eend of turn. No turns lost but we lost 2 hours....

Please everyine rembeber ti end your turn especially if you are last to play, The game was moving along quite well.

 

[lplayer]

Whats the opinion of the current double move dispute? Nobody has asked for a roll back. If a player continues to play double moves intentionally and to their advantage they will be visited by the AI.
