Who Has the Game Save? Part II - Page 14

:rolleyses:

I thought ND played all of GoW's turns, hence GoW never attacked ND like they said they would.

ZargonX · July 27, 2003, 11:07

Lego has received the turn with no save attached. Could Vox please resend?

Rhothaerill · July 27, 2003, 11:31

That's odd because it shows up as being attached from my end.

In any case I resent it.

Darekill · July 31, 2003, 01:45

Just a question.

Is the 24 hour rule still set or are we to take our time we think we need.

We were tempted the last several turns to break it and were forced to act quickly that madesome decisions not "optimal" for ND.

If everyone is free to break it we would hold the save a little bit longer too next turn.

This is an issue about fairness too i think....

Shiber · July 31, 2003, 05:50

I am under the impression that RL issues prevented RP from playing their turn in time.
They still owe you an explanation though.

Our General didn't show up. We waited around for him for a number of hours before the decision was made to just start without him.

Thing is, when you're playing a normal turn it's rare when something surprising comes up when you open a new save, so you can afford to plan ahead and turns themselves can be passed quickly. When you're in a war, turns move slowly because there's something completely new to notice and make plans about before executing everything every single time you open the save file.

Personally, I wouldn't have any problem if ND took longer with the save.

Darekill · July 31, 2003, 13:20

I understand that and accept the reason for the delay.
Still I will try to keep the 24 hour rule as good as any possible. Though it will be obvious that we will fully use our time that if we need it.

Shiber · August 9, 2003, 18:52

Could someone from ND please post their players' Email addresses?
Nathan has them, but he's not around. I myself am going to sleep. NYE will send the save as soon as he has the addresses (either from an ND'er or Nathan).

Understood.

Patch 1.27 ?

Kloreep · August 11, 2003, 18:19

Vox turnplayers: I'm going to be away for a while, so you can stop sending the turn to me.

have a nice day

Panzer32 · August 11, 2003, 19:24

don't patch until everything else patches, likely when the UK one is gtg.

Sharpe · August 15, 2003, 19:47

RP has had the turn for more than 26 hours now - should we be giving them extra time due to the power blackout problems?

Panzer32 · August 15, 2003, 21:27

If they had people in the power blackout area then sure.

If not than what can we do anyways? Declare war??

hi ,

if it where only to spice things up a bit , ......

have a nice day

GhengisFarb™ · August 17, 2003, 11:59

I think that most of Blackout area has been fixed now though.

notyoueither · August 17, 2003, 14:44

We have a problem. Shiber is not well. I am here and can play the turn, but I have .27 installed. Suggestions?

GhengisFarb™ · August 17, 2003, 15:30

That's not an issue, we have been having people playing the same PBEM with 1.27 and 1.21 ever since 1.27 came out, they seem to be compatible. The ISDG's been played with both for quite awhile now.

notyoueither · August 17, 2003, 15:35

OK. Here goes. It should not take long.

Your right, it shouldn't take long, all you have to do is load all the GS troops onto your ships and take them back to you home island. Not long at all.

hi ,

lets hope he gets better real fast , ......

what does he have

have a nice day

Shiber · August 18, 2003, 15:57

Thanks Panag.

GS's save got even further delayed because of the downtime. But thankfully, ND's turn wasn't delayed because they have, shall we say, a more reliable meeting place.

notyoueither · August 21, 2003, 22:47

Anyone from Lego around?

I guess I am to play the GS turn, but it has not been forwarded to me yet. I have messages off to Shiber and vondrack. Will send to nbarclay as well.

Save resent - sorry, nye, nobody told us to send saves to you, too. Shall we start sending them to you regularly from now on?

Shiber · August 22, 2003, 05:54

I suggest so.
An unexpected turn of events has befallen me, and I'll have less and less time for Poly in the coming week and a half.
Thank you Vondrack.
