Huh? I'm not involved in the restarting of the game at all. I have no idea what you're talking about.

Sorry, brain malfunction. Writing from work, wrote too quickly, too many edits, it went awry. Sorry to slander your name :-(

Turn 7 just ran, and only 7 players submitted orders, which is absurd. This game is clearly defunct, so I'll stop it and return the slot.

Apologies to the 6 other people still playing - I suggest you move over to the other similar game that is starting. Maybe it won't suffer the same connection problems that have plagued this one.

Well someone started the new game I created... we had built all the way to three players.

Maybe this game is cursed...

Another one is up. Aptly named "Orania - Do not start"

Same rules, same settings as the orginal.
Port 2260

Actually I increaded the turn time to 24 hours. Hopefully that will make it easier for people

This happened twice when Orania_Quick was filling. If it happens again to you, I suggest not advertising the port number here on the Shrapnel forum.

If you make people go to the mosehansen server to discover the port number, you may get fewer non-serious signups (which includes people inclined to click the Start Game button)

I have just created a solution for this. Check the news on the welcome page on the server. Basically, you just enable the "Disallow clients to start game" option; and then disables it when you wish to start the game.

um, the latest Version of the game on Mose doesn't mention any special rules. Are we still banning VQ and limiting clams?

Yes. All the game settings and rules are the same.
