O.K. Atlantis did not stale.

Ermor is still a plague though.

stats.txt: Atlantis didn't play this turn

That means they staled. But I'm sure it wasn't intentional, since CyborgMoses did post that he was worried about people slowing down this game. I dunno, maybe something came up IRL. Happens to everyone sometimes!

Back in character: Helheim, would you kindly please hire some mages to do some research for you. You are making the nation of Mictlan extremely nervous.

Aye, probably is an unexpected real life issue, but it is still ironic anyway!

It looks Atlantis is going to stale again.

I am not sure about reading those stats files (not sure if the file numbers correspond to turn numbers). But it looks like Atlantis has already staled several turns.

I realize that real life can intercede, but all these early stales are more than just slowing down the game, they are dooming Atlantis' chances (unless Cyborgmoses has some bloody brilliant stratagems up his sleeve). Perhaps (groan) it would be a good idea to switch Atlantis to AI if this turn is also stale?

I second the motion. Looks like irony triumphs over real life once again.

I may eliminate him next turn. I would suggest setting Atlantis to AI either way because he has been in an impossible position in our war since about turn 5. I don't think a substitute or a new player will change the inevitable and it should speed up the next few turns.
