Wow. That was some wild battle - I lost my army, except for a handful of my most valuable mages, but won and destroyed some serious moolah in abysian troops and SCs. As is often the case, the mortal troops routed...

of course i had one of my SCs killed by his stupid cyclops, in a different battle, so the turn certainly wasn't all wine and roses

Why has the timer been reset? At... a week? between turns, the game is not worth playing.

The game is pretty much over, right? I enjoyed smacking around Archeo's god, but I don't think there's much long term hope.

Welp, it depends. But if folks want to pack it in, it would be ok with me.

sorry i had ironhawk reset it for 72 hrs - the game's still entertaining, but a lot of work - and i'm worried about next month, since I have 3 11-12 hr days in a row and if a turn falls square over all 3 of them...

that was good work there sedna; I really flaked on throwing my pretender in like that w/out fatigue support.

If you all went against me I'd probably lose just because I couldn't handle the micromanagement - I'm open to a "pantheonic victory" if people want; or we can slog it out some more. I've put the hurt on abysia finally, at least.

Heh. I'm open to a pantheonic victory, as long as Man (whose quasit, er, moloch, has been sitting on my capitol the last 20 turns) isn't part of the pantheon.

My game was over long ago - but I've made sure his was too.

i believe we'd set aside a fairly ample valley where you two can battle for all eternity, like the manichaean kirks.

Mine was over from turn 1 on . At least i know now that i extremely dislike Man LoT.
I never had more income than about 350 gold, not much you can do with that .

But good job surviving Caine. Pan is really a pain to finish you showed me in this game and even more in G�tterd�mmerung where Aku couldn't finish you neither for the whole game.

I would vote for Archeo declaring winner but since my nation is so small i see my vote insignificant and would suggest that we should follow what the 4 major nations Oceania, Vanheim, Abysia and Tien Chi suggest.

Well, here's what I'm thinking. For the past 10 or 15 turns, we've been running right up to the deadline on the timer, whatever the timer is set at. This indicates to me that people regard playing their turns as a chore, rather than something enjoyable. I check in every 12 hours or so, to see if there's a new turn, and unless its after the expiry of the timer, the answer is always no. Since the slower a game goes, the less interest I have in it, I vote we just call it off.
