two v. two v. two v. two v. two (full)

[quantum_mechani]

Arg, I put in my pretender using 2.2 before all this about 2.01, I left it in because I didn't read carefully assumed it meant we were restarting with 2.2. Now it gave me a pretender with 490 points leftover. If you think the game has been delayed too many times already, though, I understand.

Okay, the fastest way to get going (aside from telling quantum_mechani to live with a worthless Pretender), is for quantum_mechani to create a Pretender with 2.01 and re-upload. I'll reset everyone *else's* Pretender except for his. If ioticus manages to re-upload a new Pretender too then he gets a fresh start too.

So in short:

a) quantum_mechani make a Pretender with 2.01 and re-connect
b) ioticus if you care do the same -- you probably don't care
c) everyone else sit tight

Okay I've restarted the server. The game is now named "2x2x2x2x2c". I put everyone's pretender back except for Machaka, Pangaea, and Man. Machaka is ioticus, and either Pangaea or Man is quantum_mechani. After quantum_mechani uploads a pretender to either Pangaea or Man, and I notice that he has done so, then I will put back the original Pretender for whichever one he didn't upload and put back the original Pretender for Machaka (unless ioticus has uploaded a new Pretender for Machaka by then).

Then the game will re-re-start.

I anticipate that this will be a fairly fast-moving, interesting, action-packed game once we get started.

Remember that I do not plan on changing the server schedule for anybody. If you can't make your turn on a 48-hour quickhost schedule then ask you partner to make that turn for you. If neither of you can do it then ask a friend to do it. If you don't have a friend that will do it then as some random Dominions 2 player on this BBS to do it.

Anything is better than asking the other eight players to wait for you.

quantum is arco btw. My pretender worked fine even though I created him with 2.2.

[quantum_mechani]

In. Thanks for taking the time to restart.

[Turin]

arg. I accidently started the game. Sorry, machaka was still missing.

[Zooko]

I'll restart it.

[Zooko]

Okay, the game is re-re-re-started. Everyone should probably check your Pretender. Mine looks good. :-)

[The Panther]

Only Machaka left to play.

I seem to be in a time warp, having played that exact same turn over and over and over!

I kept hoping to get a better starting spot, but it never happened...

[Zooko]

(Bwoo the Great studies the map, trying to infer which starting spot Panther, Prince of Light, Feeder on Impurity, Eater of Filth, Prince of Patience, got, and whether that makes Panther an enemy or a competitor.)

By the way, I observed that Hannibal the mercenary, employed by Arcoscephale, has suddenly gained much experience (but no kills).
