Yeah, 24hr timer should be set until about mid-way through the second year, or after turn ~20.

It's set to 24 hours. I also noticed Llamaserver's weird interpretation of 24 hours, but assumed it was something to do with the first turn? Maybe there's some sort of confusion in Llama server with time zones...

If Chelms doesn't have their turn in, in 8 hours then I will force host and ensure that the next turn is due in 24 hours.

I think Llamaserver advanced all the games by 12-24hr or something because it wasn't updating for a while. At least my other games were also "delayed". Sometimes it will do that if there are server issues. Also, there's no need to force host, in a couple hours it will be too late for Chelms, and the turn will automatically be resolved and sent.

So....it looks like Chelms might be missing another turn. It's not HORRIBLE in the beginning, but it's certainly not good. Unless somebody can get ahold of said player, or find a replacement, we should set the nation to A.I. That would at least provide some sort of counter(albeit a bad one) to anyone in their region.

That's annoying.

Yo Chelms, you have 1 turn before I set you AI!

Also, any newcomers to the thread who missed out on signing up for the game may take their place.

Edit: Chelms is AI now.

Is there a way to turn OFF score graphs now that the game has started? Kind of a big deal for MP games, and makes some spells obsolete.

The score Tables on llamaserver are even worse. Who knows, maybe someone could find interesting that Ragha and Caelum both lead the province count number (and of course, their rate of expansion turn par turn), or the precise data upon magic research (Hi, Bogarus. Nice research. That awake pretender should be a nice asset), gem count and the precise numbers about gold income and even soldiers.

All interesting and good to make observations and try to derive conclusions about Pretender Chassis and game styles.

Of course, if the majority is willing to take them down, the game will be more interesting. We should have discussed this before, though.

I can't see an option to turn them off in Llama server admin options.

Yeah, it's fine. Less important in a free for all anyways. And on that note, do people want to PM each other for diplomacy? Is there going to be any?

Yeah, a tree branch almost had its way with my car. No worries on not getting the extension in, btw, it was a rather late request.

Can we have a list of players with their nations in the OP? In case one wants to contact another via PM.

Yeah, I think I'll just browse through the first 3 pages of this thread and note every one of you in my text file (for Dom 4 MP games).

Sorry I read the thread but I didn't make an account until you asked who I was.
