Holy cockslapping mother of disneyfied christ, this is taking forever!

let's just find another player instead if mockingbird doesn't answer.

The fault was mine, not mockingbird's. He responded promptly to my message, but I had to work last night and did not have time to post.

mockingbird is out of town for the weekend. He will upload his pretender and we can start the game when he returns.

I realize that we all want to get the game started (I am no exception!), but I don't think this is an unreasonable delay, given the holiday.

Would you please wait until Monday to start the game....After some lengthy playing as Pythium in LA,,,,I just don't see ANY way to get by Ermor with that nation (now I know why it is banned in LA sometimes).

I think I will chage to Abysia (another weak nation but it can hold its own agianst them I rhink. I just need to figure out the pretender.

Thanks....Ragnar

sigh...nevermind, I will just take my whoopin. The Abysia I know is EA.

You might not even start out near Ermor, there are 6 other players after all.

Uh, why are you posting as Grudgebringer?

Ragnars Wolves · #36 September 5th, 2010, 04:36 PM

GrudgeBringer is my Stepdad, my wife and I live on his property in the guest house. We where over there and I was talking to him about changing my pick in my first MP game and he informed me that Abysia didn't have a LA nation.

Soooo, in case Morningstar got back in town and got his pretender in I just jumped on his computer and posted without thinking So I wouldn't hold up the game. And for the next question.....NO, he will not be helping me. In fact we have a $20dollar bet on how long I last in this game.

However, that does bring up a point and I guess I should have made it clear up front. The powers that be at Dom3 have approved it and if you ask anyone that knows GrudgeBringer, he is like a Palidin in a rpg game. NEVER breaks his word and plays the Lawful good to the max. ( I find it amusing, but he is well respected on here...check his friends list).

I have a different E-mail address but play off his computer by wireless. It is a strange situation, I can post on his comp but it comes up as GrudgeBringer. HOWEVER, because the turns are sent to MY comp on MY Gmail account, he can't see the turns and I can't do the turns from his comp. In other words we are seperate enities except for the fact that we are both logged in to Dom on the same account (so to speak) but have different E-mail address.

Hope that puts everyone at ease. It will be a Loooooog while before I try and take on the Old Man in the same game, I assure you.

If anyone has a problem or question you can PM me or for that matter PM him, like I said he ALWAYS takes the high road.

Nice try Grudge.

Ragnars Wolves · #38 September 5th, 2010, 06:08 PM

This is exactly why my stepdad didn't want me playing on his account by wireless.

First, I take offense that you don't believe me. Why would I lie? To play in a game with all new guys (except you who has 10 games by your own admission under your belt).

Second, I also take offense that you would think Grudgebringer would do that in the first place. You must not have played with him before to say that. And if you REALLY think this is some kind of evil plot so that he could play and win a game agianst new guys.....take it up with him (and then I'm SURE I will hear about it in no uncertain terms). Besides, if you know him you know he ALWAYS plays Arco.

If this brings a cloud over your game Groundworm, I apologize and will bow out. But your welcome to check with the people who run Dom as we had to clear it with them before we could do this (Annette I think was her name).

Let me know what you want me to do Groundworm.

Groundworm · #39 September 5th, 2010, 06:25 PM

Easy, Ragnar... sounds to me like Fantomen was just giving you some good-natured ribbing.

Abysia does have a late age nation, Blood of Humans. But my advice is to pick one nation, and try to develop a strategy for it. Since you've chosen Pythium and it sounds like you've got some field testing done with them in single player, work with it and see what you can do.

You probably won't win the game, but you'll almost definitely learn something.

Ragnars Wolves · #40 September 5th, 2010, 07:02 PM

Sorry, I may be a might touchy as I had a rather 'long' conversation about playing this game with my stepdad and the ramifacations it could have on him before I joined this. He mentioned he knew of 2 sets of brothers playing but not on the same type hook up.

Only because Dom gave thier permission did he allow it and my stupidity of using his computer to leave a message never occured to me that it would show his name. NOW, I have to hear it from him also.

Sorry Fantoman if you where just messin with me or my dad and you guys are friends.

All I want to do is play the game, take my lumps and come back for more (but better prepared)/ Pythium is a neat nation for SP as I have found out. But I am not skilled enough yet to counter the counters (if that makes sense).

When your ready...let er rip
