Sure, and with that, the game is closed - the Cradle is tight with 10 players.

Or rather - seems someone joined as R'lyeh, and you'd make 11, which is a bit too much for the map. Not to mention the waters would be rather crowded.

Thanks anyways. With R'lyeh in it is too crowded in the sea. Have fun!

The game is started, as of 2 PM EST.

One slight problem - the server wasn't kicking anonymous players properly, so Jotunheim is in the game when it shouldn't be.

Which means, I think, the best I can do is make it AI controlled.

Hello, I have joined the game as Luke. I have never played this game multiplayer before. For some reason every time I try to take my turn the game says it has an error and closes. Could someone please tell me if I am doing something wrong? Sorry

Do you have the latest patch? If you have not patched the game, you won't be able to download your .trn, even though you were able to login. Are you the mysterious unnamed Jotunheimian who got in at the Last minute?

There isn't a Luke registered for the game. That's the first thing. What nation did you think you were? And what port / game?

But probably, as Norfleet said, you haven't installed the latest patch.

(And no, he isn't Jotunheim, which is there because Regen uploaded two pretenders, and the kick anonymous didn't kick it.)

Well, until a few minutes ago, Luke was the name claimed as Jotunheim, when I checked. Now it's empty again. Meh. Maybe he'll claim or not claim the slot when he gets in the game with the new patch, I dunno.

Weird - just created another account on mosehansen with a different browser, and even with that - Cradle of Uncivilization, on 2280, has always shown up with Jotunheim as Anonymous. You looking at the right game?

Plus, Regen said he'd uploaded two - and kicking the anonymous _never_ removed the original Jotunheim, meaning it almost certainly isn't Luke's, since mosehansen doesn't let you overwrite pretenders now.

Well, if not Jotunheim, then who's Luke? Is he not in our game in the first place, then? Guess he can be Jotunheim anyway.

I did download the newest patch (2.12) before trying to take my turn. I was trying to play as the Jotunheim but, I got out of the game after trying about twelve times to take my turn because I thought I was probably slowing you all down from starting the game. Thank you all for the help.
