Well he answers his in game messages so maybe someone let him know he has to turn on his PMs here.

Tryfan · #42 November 1st, 2010, 12:08 AM

...and he has two hours to get his turn in or he'll stale.

Finalgenesis · #43 November 1st, 2010, 02:29 AM

Just saw him idling in IRC and left him a message to come back and follow up / turn pm on.

Edit: He quit right away after the message was sent, I am unsure whether he manage to read the pm before he dropped.

I had a power surge fry my modem at home and I'll be picking up a new one tomorrow morning. Could I please get a 24 hour extension?

Too late

. And I think Vanheim staled too. Which sort of sucks, don't it ? Do we roll it back, or do we just keep on trucking ?

rotarr · #46 November 2nd, 2010, 03:06 AM

Seeing as the Vanheim player was posting about subbing in another game on these forums (coupled with the fact that this is like his 3rd stale) I doubt he cares much anymore.

Kobal2 · #47 November 2nd, 2010, 03:17 AM

Yeah, to be bluntly honest, seeing as he's been staling more often than not and never said word one in the thread, I really can't muster much sympathy or patience for Vanheim/Blackguard. Besides, from the looks of the HoF somebody's rolling him in his absence.

C'tis however had warned in advance, couldn't have foreseen his modem throwing a cog and has been very civil to me in-game. Since we've been having something of an indie-pwning race which I'm likely to come out on top if we just roll with his stale, I'm kinda bummed for him, that's all.

Tryfan · #48 November 2nd, 2010, 03:33 AM

Yes I feel bad for C'tis, he did send a message asking for one. But it doesn't do any good to send ME the message, it's not hosted on my computer and I don't have any more control over it than any of you do. If there's an unavoidable mechanical failure you need to tell Gandalf if its just a short term problem.

Though its not the best outcome, at least C'tis wasn't at war with anyone at the time. Heck I staled the very first turn through no fault of my own and I just kept truckin. Heh.

As for Vanheim... what can you really do. Some people are just like that. Barring some explanation for why he showed so little respect for the rest of us, not much one can do besides ****list him and avoid his games in the future, as well as not invite him to yours. An AI player at this point of the game would be extremely disruptive; I don't think we have any real choice but to let him stale away.

Hylobius · #49 November 2nd, 2010, 11:18 AM

Just got my new modem installed.

As soon as I got the response from Tryfan that I needed to contact Gandalf about a delay I sent an email and a PM to Gandalf. No response to either. The stale is a little disappointing, but the Vanheim situation is much more disruptive to the game. If someone can reach Gandalf I think that we should pause the game and decide what to do about Vanheim.

Hylobius · #50 November 2nd, 2010, 11:32 AM

Hinnom is also a bit of an issue. Apparently he is still not a member of the forum and I think that he has staled as well.

I'm certainly willing to keep playing, however when a game with this few players has this many issues so early in the game, perhaps we should re-start and advertise for more players.
