Hey let's have some people tell some tales.

This month We slew the false prophet of Ulm and started the seige of his capitol. Soon this false pretender will fade from this realm... All Hail Sleepy...

No worries Ano. I know these things can happen

I hate to ask anything more of Llama as he has already done so much for the community. But there are now a lot of these multi age games now so it would be really great if the Llama server at some point could show the difference more clearly.

If nations were sorted there in same way they are sorted at regular game page (LA nations first and then MA nations) there would be no problem. But the sorting order is different and I didn't see any obvious logic there. Actually I realized I could have done something wrong immediately after I've done it

Oh!
It seems I understood it. Sorting order is the same but you should read it as you read the book - line by line. I thought that they should be read column by column and that's what confused me
Still need to have something more obvious at llamaserver but in this game, I hope, it won't happen again)))

It seems to me the best solution would be to put the name of the player after the listing of the race. This would stop the confusion.

At llamaserver? Yes, probably that would be a nice feature but it requires a piece of work

Well if llamabeast does add this feature to his server, I certainly hope it will be a selectable option and not come as standard. Since knowing which player is playing which nation would destroy all RAND games on the spot

Best to just add "MA,LA, or EA"

No, chris, it would be a nice option.
I caught myself much more than once trying to understand who is who in some random game at llamaserver. Of course, I always can search the forum, find the thread, then look if there're any subs.. But I'd say it's hardly convenient.
But yes, this should definitely be an option.
