Grimwulf, can you write a report for me also? I have 2 very large battles to tell about, but not so much free time...

Send me the bottles. If the liquids inside are gud, you'll get your report.

Fake edit: yeah, right. As if I don't know you just want to poison me or smth. I'll shove those bottles up your scale-ridden ass, one after another.

Sorry guise, work is a bitch this week end. I'm unable to take my turn atm and I will be supervising a dozen second grader while they shot each other tomorrow, could I have an extension untill monday?

That last one was actually from hello friend's previous request, I wasn't sure if I was gonna be back before that timer was up, and thought he might have needed until the 25th since I didn't see a turn. I'll add another 12 hrs., if you get your turn in sooner cool, but that way there's no pressure.

I could have sworn that yesterday the turn time was set in the evening. Today I check again at work and it's 12.40. Are we sure nothing weird happened? Because four stales are a lot.

Sometimes llamaserver breaks the games during/after rollbacks, some sort of save corruption issue - I'm no expert. Then again, sometimes it corrupts them even without rollbacks.

Usually I am against this, regardless of circumstances. This time I'm neutral - you guys decide.

Normally I'd say let's go on with this, but I had a number of delicate transactions ongoing this turn...
Dunno, probably other players will suffer from this too, so let's hear what everyone has to say about rolling back.
My personal vote is for going on, but if even one of the damaged players has some issue, send me a PM (you know who you are) and I'll change my vote to rollback.

If it was only me, I'd accept the failure , but with four players it's a good piece if the game.I'd vote yes, and I can't even see the turn until this evening.
Let's risk, if the others agree.

Four stales is a lot. In principle I'm against rollbacks, but this might just be a good opportunity to try one. I think it's time to get extra admins again, too :)

I understand perfectly and I agree with you! Unfortunately I also understand those who were waiting for their precious this same turn (...or else).

This really is a conundrum for me...

Very sorry guys, my internet went down... this is the first chance I've had to get on all day. I'm ok with rolling the turn back in view of the circumstances. I don't know anything about the save corruption thing, so I will wait for someone more experienced to advise. Is this something common, or rare enough to risk it?

Living in the boonies has it's drawbacks, but you should see the views out here. :)

Generally, I think the possibility of the game ending, against some botched trades/stales, is greater. Would be a shame if the game crapped out now. I'm about to go on the Trail of Tears.

Dunnow. Never tried, and the llamaserver page does not tell us of corruption issues.

Pics please :lol:, I'm interested to see the American equivalent of vivere tra i grebani!

A stalefest fuck-up this turn will leave and long-lasting bad taste if the game goes on, true. But if the game vanishes completely because of a llamabomb, I will literally figuratively die. Decline 10 is my fav ongoing pbem.

Is this something common, or rare enough to risk it?

The question is more about are you willing to take this risk at all? Nobody will tell you something like Success chance 44%. So if you're willing - do it. If not, say so. I have to know whether I should think on this current turn or not.

In a case of need we can contact Llama admin to get game files and host the game manually.

All "game files" are stored in your goddamn mailbox, you crackhead raptor. Why contact Llamabeast?

1. They are stored in the mailboxes of all players.
2. The master file, required to process the turn and names as "ftherlnd", never gets mailed to anyone.
Try technical education in your next life.
