So if im to take over for Dayyalu yall gonna have to wait for some arbitrary amount of time. I'm being given control 3 1/2 weeks after initially agreeing to it, with the situation being completely different, and at the end of my semester with finals around the corner and projects due.
If you can find somebody else to take over it would be optimal, but I can take over if need be. As said I'm not "jumping" on this right away though. It's gonna take time just to get into the damn game, and i dont know when I'm going to start even looking at it in detail.

I can postpone the game for you to get situated, but I'd need a set amount of time, and nothing ridiculous. This isn't life or death, it's just Dominions.

You can also just fuck yourself and find somebody else bro :)

...let's all take a step back and start again.

DakaSha I think no one has problems making a pause, just understand this is quite sudden for some of us. No one told me about a player switch for example and I don't think I'm the only one in this situation.
How much time do you think you'll need?

I'm itching to continue the game, but having someone stall/play poorly for lack of time is no fun at all. I completely agree that we should pause to resolve this. However, I'm with KoolNoodles in that I am uncomfortable waiting an unspecified and perhaps unreasonably long time doing nothing with no clear guarantee that the sub will even happen.

Let's make a clear arrangement :) And if Dakahsa is unable/uncertain regarding the sub (perfectly understandable, everyone has RL) perhaps we can link Codex candidates to this thread? Maybe some hapless noob will jump in, like I did with Decline 2. Or we can even have for instance raw or someone eliminated from Decline 3 do it if they have the time.

To me is the same. Decline4 is starting, and I made clear to all my neighbours that I was going to sub.

I admit that was a mistake to not to jettison the game immediately (my fault, i'm sorry) but I wanted to leave to Dakasha the best situation possible, and instead I left him a 4vs1.

I'm sorry. If Dakasha wants to leave and raw wants to take Marignon, for me it's the same. This will be (hopefully) my last turn.

Please, do put the guy with grudges against half the board in control of one of the biggest armies in play. That will go well for the Axis of Freedom.

It might be fun :) Double-or-nothing, a chance at revenge, a difficult position, enough power to make it with good diplomacy (!) or tactics. I'd take it in raws shoes!

If raw can take over (or anybody else), it would be better for both me and the game as a whole.

I am an idiot. In all this hubbub I forgot to submit my turn. Have fun with that!

Saved you from annihilation south and got 6 of my witch hunters nonetheless for very lucky scripting.

However, enjoy BoT, guys. I'm jumping ship!

Was fun, good diplo on the side of all, could have evolved well. :salute:

Raw or Dakasha or anyone else, PM me. Dakasha, sending you the turn.

Asking for at least a 24 hours extension to leave my sub enough time to get aquainted with Diplo and situation.

Well easy enough to kill Ermor quickly if we all act. :smug:

Edit: 24hr extension to sort stuff out.

RIP Abysia, we hardly knew ye. What rus hordes couldnt accomplish will be done by the skeleton menace. All my mages are super old at the start and with extra help from BoT I think I'm done.

On the other hand it does virtually nothing for Ermor. Thaum doesnt help him defend, the spell wastes gems and the pop kill is extremely slow. Not sure what was the plan here other than "fuck you" to the world and mainly human nations with old mages. Is he fighting Mari?

Nah, he's fighting Pythium (me) and Nazca. It has a somewhat direct application against Pythium since it adds to the logistic of siege inside his empty lands.

I suggest everyone attack Xibalba now, when there's still a small chance he can be stopped (probably not but you can try).

Every time I planned to do so, the fucker kept sending me gifs of cute little bats.

How can a Atlantean, a self-respecting frog, genocide such things?

Look how cute they are, oh gosh they are so cute and cuddly I want one
