Cool I was in Aruba not too long ago... I hope you have as good a time as we did, tho I doubt it as we were enjoying the fun of CARNAVAL !

But sun, sea, beach and > 25C can be enough fun for a holiday as well....

Be glad that you do not live here, as it is 42C today and it is going to be just as hot tommorrow and might be a record for the hottest March day in Perth, provides it goes above 42.3C.

Ahhh ... no time to make my move prevoius turn and I was victim of a double-move ( but a legally one ) and most of my troops was killed by Agemo ...

Future sounds verrry bad for German Empire now.

The game seems to be down

The game seems to be down

I lost connection while loading this afternoon, but indeed I still cannot get in either...

 

[Mîtiu Ioan]

Maybe with this ocasion it could be rollbacked until the turn which I skip ...

Regards

I was just now able to do my turn Game up and running (again?)

 

[namliaM]

I am not getting my turn emails at my Hotmail address, I havent changed it and used to get them from civstats. Anyone have simular problems?

 

[classical_hero]

What can be sdne about the fact that Portuga is still connected to his spot and thus I can't get emails from Civstats?

 

[namliaM]

I think the admin of the game on civstats (LPlayer in this case I think) can kick the blocking player out and open up the spot for you to take. Tho when JMaltman was taking over from me, I just changed my pw and give the PW to him. Also I changed the Email address to send to him instead of me.

But seeing as Portuga is allready away that is not really an option.
IF I were getting mails for my/our game I could (auto) forward them to you.... But I am not => I cannot....
Not getting emails as a reminder is/can be a pain.... You just have to check every evening I guess... it is remarkable how soon and how heavy we come to depend on CivStats.

lplayer can kick portuga from Civstats and assign a new password for you. It's easy.

 

[classical_hero]

Thanks for that lplayer.

Sorry Firefox, but you just made a double move during a battle situation.

lplayer moved in 1530 AD (at 0107 GMT)
firefox moved in 1530 AD (at 0540 GMT)

firefox moved in 1535 AD (at 2131 GMT) with 23 hours left.

As no one else has moved I have rolled back firefox's illegal move.

Please advise if I have acted improper.

 

[HitAnyKey]

Reviewing civstats, I agree that it was a doublemove and that the rollback is valid. Firefox, you'll need to watch civstats a little closer and/or coordinate moves with those you are at war with to ensure that the logins alternate to avoid this happening in the future.

EDIT: On a similar note....I just declared war on Firefox as well...

Hey, guys, I am seriously sorry. And seriously glad it could so easily be fixed.

I came home from work, saw that the next turn was due in 5 of my games, and did them one after the other. Didn't even think about double moves.

I will pay more attention (in all my games) in future, seeing as it's so easy to transgress.

@HitAnyKey: Your timing is out. You should wait until we are both seriously weak and depleted and then both me and Iplayer could easily be taken out...

Well I'm only really after this one city of yours that you have planted sort of right between mine. So what happens between you and lplayer doesn't really concern me all that much. It's even unlikely I'd even head northward beyond it. We'll see...

Hmz, well thats one of the perks for beeing a host

Guess there is no harm in rolling it back...

 

[lplayer]

I rolled back to firefox turn gamesave but it looks as if this made no difference as after rollback the stats still showed that firefox had completed his move. Does the game save at start or end of a players turn? My dead Knight will remain dead and play continues....

 

[namliaM]

On civstats it looks like firefox allready re-did his move, I think I was the one to start this turn...

Edit: I gather that the last player to play allways loses his moves, therefor it seems like the save is made prior to the players turn. But that is just a feeling not a fact.

 

[Fosse]

A save is made whenever a player logs in, and whenever a turn rolls over. To restore to the correct point in this case the turn autosave (put in a different directory than the normal recovery saves) should do the trick.
