Ok, you're all in (including the two experienced players - that's fine - happy to get the game going really).

Juffos - what's your friends name? Is he/she a user on this site? Or will you be sharing a PC?

I'll go create the game now so that we can get to uploading pretenders, but definitely start working on them now.

Wow, creating a game sure is easy - thanks Llamabeast!

You can upload pretenders now.

Create them and send the pretender file (in your newlords folder) to pretenders[ at ]llamaserver[ dot ]net

Make sure you put the word Archaean in the subject line ****CRUCIAL!!!****

Ummm...how do I edit the title of the main thread? I can edit the title of the first post, but that doesn't change the title of the main thread...

Anyway, anyone looking - thanks for your interest but the game is unfortunately full.

You can't anymore, unfortunately.

They added this really awful "feature" where you can't edit a post save for 30 minutes after you first put it up. While it solves some minor problems with administering the forums, it's a real pain in the *** for the users.

Default Re: Archaean - New LA Game - Upload pretenders

Uploaded mine! Also, since we have a lot of new people and the link in llamabeast's signature doesn't seem to work (and because I had a hard time figuring out what to do, myself.) here's how to upload pretenders: *Stolen directly from llamabeast*

"Okay guys, the game is ready to accept pretenders. Here's how to upload them:
Firstly, you should only join a game if you've found there's a thread for it on this board, you've read it, and they're still looking for players. Then you should post on the thread saying what nation you'll be. To actually join the game:

- Make sure you have the same mods enabled as the game you're playing in (Preferences->Mod Preferences) although only mods affecting pretender design, such as Conceptual Balance, actually matter
- Go to Game Tools -> Create a pretender god in Dominions. Don't set a password, since for PBEM games they're not helpful and occasionally annoying (e.g. if you need a sub)
- Go to the savedgames/newlords folder in the dominions directory, and find your pretender file (e.g. mid_pythium_0.2h)
- E-mail the file to: pretenders[ at ]llamaserver[ dot ]net
- Crucially, you must have the game name 'Archaen' in the subject line of your e-mail

A few minutes later you should get a confirmation e-mail, and if you check the website (www.llamaserver.net ) you should find your nation added to the list of nations which have joined the game.

If later you think of an improvement to your pretender, you can send it in again. Provided the game hasn't actually started the server will accept your revised pretender, and send you an e-mail to say so."

You can now edit the first post in each thread, which is a big improvement at least.

I've fixed the thread title, using my moderator powerz. I did using "Thread Tools", next to "Search this Thread" in the black bit at the top. Not sure if that's also visible for James243 or if it's a moderator thing.

Oh yeah, the FAQ link is broken. Oh dear! Well, I have no time to fix it now, so it will have to wait till I get back from holiday.

Same goes for many of the map and mod links on the LlamaServer. Unfortunate.
