[closed]Dom 4 Christmas 2016 !

Okay, all AI pretenders submitted (but if someone wants to put in their own AI pretender for a faction, you can still do so -- it'll just overwrite the pretender already there for that faction).

All the pretenders have been accepted.

I've also emailed and pmailed Beowulf to see if he's still going to do the game, and if so it's time for him to re-upload his pretender. We'll give that a couple of days.

[Beowulf]

Got the e-mail. Thank you for the reminder. I resent mine just now.

[JasonPratt]

Okay, I think this is the point where Ys or I set teams? -- I noticed this in the admin tools. Will experiment with that when I get a chance. I might have to recreate and resubmit pretenders to make this work...  :-"

[Yskonyn]

I *think* it doesnt matter wether you created a disciple or a pretender and we can just assign it in Llama.
Does every human player have his desired pretender up?

[JasonPratt]

According to the list, yes; and all other slots should be filled -- we should have a total of 30 pretenders in the list. Beowulf's will need to be added to our team.

[JasonPratt]

Argh, too wiped tonight to do much but shoot some things occasionally. Will be very busy at work tomorrow, perhaps tomorrow night or Saturday morning.

[Yskonyn]

I am out for the weekend as well, so dont start yet OR make the interval like three days.

[JasonPratt]

I'm perfectly fine with setting the interval to a week or longer. That doesn't mean we have to take a week -- we could take three hours! It's just a safety backstop in case an emergency happens and emails / pmails / thread posts don't get sent out to the admins in time to put a hold on the gameclock.

[Yskonyn]

that would fit my schedule nicely. :P

[jamus34]

I'm guessing we're not doing this based on the email I received, no?

[JasonPratt]

It's my fault. I'm busy on other games and keep forgetting we have to assign the enemy into teams.  :-[

[JasonPratt]

Okay, here are the teams, I hope!

Team 1: (us: the iron giants and their parrots  :D )
Man (Pretender)
Caelum
Jotunheim
Vanheim
Ulm

Team 2: (Sea AI Team 1)
R'lyeh (Pretender)
Xibalba
Atlantis

Team 3: (Sea AI Team 2)
Ys (Pretender)
Pelagia
Oceania

Team 4: (Underblood AI Team 3)
Abysia (Pretender)
Mictlan
Vanarus
Agartha
Nazca

Team 5: (Crumbling Empire AI Team 4)
Arcoscephale (Pretender)
Ermor
Marignon
Sceleria
Pythium
C'tis

Team 6:(Wildblood AI Team 5)
Asphodel (Pretender)
Ashdod
Machaka
Pangaea
Bandar Log

Team 7: (Doomed Civilization Team 6)
Shinuyama (Pretender)
T'ien Ch'i
Eriu

[JasonPratt]

All right: all players should be getting alerts. I think Ys will be getting two, and he'll have to turn C'Tis over to the AI (that was his AI pretender contribution). I'll be getting a ton, and will have to load them up individually and "resign" to turn them over to the AI. I think. This could take a while.

(Note to self: DO NOT ACCIDENTALLY RESIGN CAELUM, kthxbi.  ::) )

[JasonPratt]

Annnnnd... Dom4 needs patching. Those who have it on Steam will know this already; mine isn't, needs work. Hopefully this doesn't somehow break the game setup.

[JasonPratt]

Argh, gnashing teeth... patching didn't help. Game crashes anyway as though game is out of date.

Let me know if anyone else's turns are getting through!
