DOOM

Basically what happend was someones 2H file for turn 43 was messed up, and because of that dominions crashed on teh server side, when it did that it kicked everyones 2H files out then when it restarted the server thought everyone was turned in so it hosted.  but it had already kicked all the 2H files out so everyone got a tale turn.  General consensus from the majority of people who normally talk on this board wanted to roll the turn back. Sorry if I should have waited, but I figured it would be better for people to be able to take their turns.  The server should have resent the turn 43 trn file for everyone to update with.

tldr; server screwed up, reset turn, email sent out with old trn file, turn 43 is teh one to resubmit.

no problem.  I was in a game once that survived a roll back.

the main thing is, we all must send turn 43.  only turn 43.

To make things clear, I voted for a rollback for purely selfish reasons.

As a blood nation, Jotunheim requires a lot of management to make sure it's hunters are operating at an optimal level and unrest is not spiralling out of control, which impacts income and blood production.  I had idle hunters in fresh territory, transporting units standing still, hunters that should have been researching and researchers that should have been hunting.  A more experienced player may have had their blood network set up more efficiently, but as it stands, I have to do a lot of fiddly things to keep my empire relatively stable while hunting.

Without this concern, I would not have asked for the rollback.  I am sure other players have their own reasons for asking for the turn to be played again.

In my case, it was due to having my army deep in the Ctisian dominion. Every turn they are there, more of my expensive summons and mages catch fatal diseases, so I really need to end things there as soon as possible.

In my case it was purely for altruistic reasons as the world should not suffer under the Jotun boot any longer than it must.

Sorry I havent got my turn in yet, life has been crazy, kid got sick, havent really had much time to get away. I should be able to get my turn in later tonight though.

I just wanted to check in and confirm I will get my turn in on time in the next 4 hours.  It's been a busy week, but I will have the time to get it done now.

[parone]

take your time.  or, if you don't have time, request additional delay :)

[parone]

also guys, alastair may not be able to continue.  I have encouraged him to keep playing, as this was billed as a High Commitment game, but he seems to have some very real RL issues, and simply may not be able to.

if not, we may be looking at a pretty significant delay(finding a sub for large, contending positions is notoriously difficult).

then again, I estimate the odds of this game getting corrupted/destroyed on this rollback at right about 30%, so it is very possible it won't be an issue.

in any case, if you know of anyone who might be a suitable sub, you may want to hit them up about the possibility..

[Wingedflamez]

OK I got my turn in.  Its probably a worse turn than the original but, shit happens.

That sucks.  Yeah I'm gonna feel like a giant bag if the game completely fails because of the roll back.

Well if things do go south.  I know I have learned a few valuable lessons, that I will hopefully be able to carry forward with me into future Dom3/4 games.

[parone]

bahh. don't do that to yourself winger. 

besides, we can always start a new one. :)

[parone]

added 6 hours.   a player was cutting it close ???

[Bronwell]

Thank you for the extension.  I totally lost track of time with real life issues.  I am working on the turn now and should have it in about 20 minutes.  Thanks as I definitely would have staled.

Good News.  The game seemed to host turn 43 and send turn 44 just fine.
