Would have granted it, but was unavailable.

I'm pretty sure TheDemon got his turn in. This is not the first time he's waited until the last moment to submit. It seems to be part of his 'strategy'?

If you knew how many hours thedemon puts into his turns, you'd know that his strategy is just to work as hard as he can on every turn.

I wouldn't disparage him for that. Additionally, I'd be willing to bet that no one has spent more time on nvv3 than him.

I don't think TwoBits intended to disparage TheDemon in any way. I try not to make a habit of speaking for others, but I strongly believe that all of the noob team-members have a deep respect and appreciation for the effort and time the Vets have invested into this game.

If we can get this turn in a bit early, atul may be able to submit his next turn (and have a good amount of time to do so) before he goes. Just a suggestion of course.

Sorry for butting in, since I am dead, but I think the game seems to be over. Posting on the vet board is almost completely over. I think it is more of a me vs. them game right now, and not a cooperative MP game, for the Vets.

Correct me if I am wrong.

As far as I know our team has entirely stopped communicating with eachother as of like a week ago.

but then again atul and thedemon could just discuss things privately as they constitute 97% of the team now I wouldn't know about that.

Do the newbs have a significant advantage?

Not much to discuss. Its clear who is responsible for what fronts, we aren't really raiding much, so not much to coordinate. When someone else on my team needs to know something I'm doing, I let them know.

As for significant advantage, they have a bigger advantage than they started with.

Yeah, the noob team's resource advantage just keeps growing and growing as the turns go by. Occasionally there is a minor resurgence, but then it is quickly squashed. Overall per turn incomes have been even more skewed than my reports have been letting on for some time now. Unless they have a significant undocumented gem income, they are very, very far behind. The question at this point is, can atul and thedemon win simply by virtue of being better at the late game than the noobs. At this point it is clear that the few remaining other vets are on their way out, so the noobs control the vast majority of the land.

However no one has been able to put anything even resembling a dent in atul yet. The only thing he's lost so far is his god, and if we're being fair here, I don't know that the noobs could have killed it without it autorouting and dying due to the turn limit. He has just run into his first significant noob nation though, and seems to be slowing down a bit. We'll have to see how things go over the next few turns.
