Replacement(s) needed for 16-civ Rocky Pangea pitboss

[RRRaskolnikov]

Perhaps we should start afresh?

a fresh game? I don't think it would be fair for the players. As I said I would appreciate to be back to the situation my game was last thrusday... but if it's not possible, well, i'll accept it. I just don't want to penalize all participants. (I understand why you propose this, but the guys who worked hard on this game won't follow you , I tell you )

Cheers

Given the number of forced reloads we've had recently, I'd rather not go back again voluntarily... (PM me with more details though Ras if the pain really is justified).

Sorry to hear about your missed turn oyzar. We did reload with more than 24 hours on the clock though... were you just not around? I would recommend everyone add an email subscription to this thread BTW so you can get hopefully notification more quickly if there are any more problems.

CH: I agree with Ras. I wouldn't want to start again here. There's also no guarantee that will fix the problem anyway, if it's a compatability issue with someone who's connecting, or whatever iut is.

Anyway, all still looking good right now so Ras and everyone else - please keep doing what you're doing for the time being, and I'll experiment a bit over the weekend to see if I can get the bottom of what exactly is causing the problem.

Cheers

Hi everyone,

Because of personal problems, I can't continue to play in this game...
Rome position is OK, next player can do a lot of things imo.

Sorry guys, and particularly Munro...

Cheers,
Raskolnikov

PS Munro I'll send you my pw in case it can ease the transition.

 

[Renata]

Dammit oyzar, it's just a game. It was not worth that.

 

[Niklas]

"Just a game" seems a rather hard concept to grasp for some people.

 

[Munro]

Donovan Zoi has kindly agreed to step in as a replacement. Thanks and welcome!

If anyone is allied with or has any other deals or treaties with Donovan that they want to tell him about, please let him know.

Donovan - welcome! Please see the first post in this thread for a bit more info on game settings etc. No specific rules in effect here - just usual pitboss etiquette (no double moves during or immediately preceding war, etc). If in doubt, just ask.

Any server problems or other issues, please just post here.

Cheers,
Munro

Strange things are happening here...

 

[Renata]

Who is Donovan replacing? RRRaskolnikov?

 

[Donovan Zoi]

Who is Donovan replacing? RRRaskolnikov?

That is correct. I'll be playing the turn in a moment here, but was wondering if I need to pause the game for oyzar when I'm done.

 

[Donovan Zoi]

OK, the game is paused. However, if you look at oyzar's profile, it looks like he ain't coming back.

So where do we go from here?

 

[Munro]

Hmm.. Eden was also interested in joining us as a replacement. I could send him a PM and check he's still interested. He could take oyzar's spot... unless this means Ras may stay on after all?

Donovan - would you be up for taking over Justinian instead?
Ras - are you interested in taking back Rome if so?

Is this even reasonable given that Donovan has seen Ras' cities? (I've no idea what the in-game situation is I'm afraid).

Otherwise I'll send Eden a PM and see if he's still interested.

Cheers
Munro

No it's not...
I can't come back folks sorry, situation is already hard enough to deal with.

 

[Donovan Zoi]

No it's not...

Agreed. Better see if we can get Eden onboard.

 

[Munro]

Rightyho. I've sent Eden a PM to ask if he's still interested and hopefully he will step in for oyzar (Justinian).

I'll kick oyzar to AI when I get home in an hour or so, so he can take over.

Edit: done. Eden - it's all yours. Game is paused with 30mins left on the clock and just you to play. It's BtS V3.19 with no mods. Let me know if you have any problems getting in, and welcome to the game!

 

[Eden]

Well I've managed to log in and move, using the game name Darkeru. It took me a while to figure out how to unpause (amazingly, this is the first game I've found, which uses the Pause button to pause).

 

[Renata]

PaulusIII will be taking over for me (France) as well. Please allow him to pause the game if needed for him to catch up on diplomatic issues.

Thanks to all and thanks to Munro for hosting the game. I've had fun.

 

[PaulusIII]

Confirming that I'm taking over for Renata.

 

[Munro]

Welcome Paulus!

 

[Eden]

Just a note to say that I've retired. At this point, I'd suggest leaving it to the AI, until it's taken over.

 

[Munro]

Ok, thanks for giving it a go.

To clarify for everyone else, Eden sent me a PM saying that the situation was hopeless. But if you know anyone that might want to play it anyway, just send them this way.
