LA Aran Vanilla HELP BUG IN GAME

[GameExtremist]

You have to take the good with the bad sometimes Carpetbagger, the bug you have described has happened to many of us, although when it happens throwing a tantrum is poor form.

[chrispedersen]

Someone seems to have submitted a turn for Bogarus.
I think carpet is continuing (yah!). I 'll get a turn in asap.

[chrispedersen]

Ok... both carpetbagger and Pangeae went AI, despite the fact that we have a good volunteer to play bogarus..

I can't say how much I view this situation poorly. At this point, we have several options.

We can continue the game as is.
We can rollback the game one turn, and let SciencePro take over the Bogarus position.
We can vote to end the game.

I personally prefer #2 - but let me know what you think.

I'm delaying the game 24 hours for people to make a comment.

PS: when carpetbagger posted the password in open source.. I changed the administrative password, to prevent anyone from force hosting, etc.

I have no objection to passing the password on to someone else if someone feels strongly about it.

I say we rollback to the previous turn so that we can continue the game with the sub.

I'm also fine with rolling the game back a turn in order to let the relief play Bogarus without a turn of AI control. But what are we going to do about Pangaea?

If we can't get someone to take over Pan, we should perhaps consider ending the game, though that would be unfortunate.

I agree with you, chris. When I unknowingly (but with the best of intentions) joined this game without announcing myself, I was basically accused of poor sportsmanship. This, however, seems to be a far worse example of that.

Going AI is permanent, and cannot be undone.

But what are we going to do about Pangaea?

Pan was almost dead, unlike Bogarus which still stood a chance after losing only one major battle in 40 turns.

[chrispedersen]

Are you sure?

[Zapmeister]

Going AI can't be undone from the turn in which it was ordered. But if you roll back to before that turn, it should all be good.

Who said time travel isn't possible?

[rdonj]

Yeah graeme, if you roll back to before the AI order was given you can search for a sub.

[chrispedersen]

Ok.. I got two responses to rollback, and that is my desire as well.

Adding sciencepro as bogarus.

Good luck all.

Science pro, let me know if you need more time...

ALL PLAYERS: Delete everything in your folder. Download the old turn. Keeping anything will drastically increase the chances of problems!
