I just got home. I didnt know he went AI. And he hasnt left me a message.

If he did it by accident is there anyway he can get control back?

Yeah if you hit escape you can click to go AI. I never tried it. Maybe he clicked it by accident but I would assume it would ask again if you are sure to go AI. Too lazy to go into sp game to try it out.

With Klatu(Man) going AI(hopefully I can find out why later) I say we just turn this into a butcher field with everyone butchering everybody. With Man being AI they wont be peaceful like they were before so we may as well just start the butchering now.

I am at war with Pickles right now and Boron is coming for me now also and the AI will attack everybody. Pickles and Boron if the two of you are teaming up it is fine by me, I will take on the both of you. The AI will distract the two of you a bit as well since he only borders you two.

See ya in game.

The descision to go AI was complicated.
1. I thought you guys were going to be at it all day Fri & Sat and I knew I had many things to do Fri & Sat. I thought it wouldn't tie you down.
2. From everything I read and heard, I was kinda discounted anyway and would have been nothing more than a spoiler. (not much fun in that).
3. You guys were looking for a knock down fight, so I figured i'd make it interesting for you. The AI would be "unpredictable" as compared to me and even maybe play better than I.

Only bad thing is I now can't see what happens. OH Well. May the best Nation win. Klatu

Thanks for the thought but you could have asked

"2. From everything I read and heard, I was kinda discounted anyway and would have been nothing more than a spoiler. (not much fun in that)."

Sorry about that - I discounted Aku a bit too &
now look at him. My efforts to talk Ermor into attacking you constantly failed so you mught have been able to rebuild/catch up.

"3. You guys were looking for a knock down fight, so I figured i'd make it interesting for you. The AI would be "unpredictable" as compared to me and even maybe play better than I."

Hmm it will attack us but will overextend & get beaten. If I wanted to play AIs I would play SP.

However if you are not having fun it is fair enough to quit. I attacked you this turn anyway to try to keep you honest & crossed with the AIs army coming in the other direction.

It would have been nice to have told us in advance though - we maybe could have got a sub (hmm) or tried to talk you out of it. But 'tis done now.

Despite my irritation with the position it is with the game (Dominion2 not newb1) rather than with you. So GL & hope you have not been put off cf Drool!

"Pickles and Boron if the two of you are teaming up it is fine by me, I will take on the both of you. "

That is only because we do no think we can beat you together - let alone individually!

"The AI will distract the two of you a bit as well since he only borders you two. "

Grr ai grrr

Hey All,

Wow. I never expected so much response to my turning AI!

I do apologize for not informing you in advance (a crazy two days for me and i was/am pulled in 32 directions). I also had no idea the AI was a problem. I really thought it would spice the game up for you all. Consider it a newbie's mistake.

It never occurrred to me about getting a sub.

I am not put out at all.

Again, apologies
