We will play the turn tomorrow (9. August) during the (US) early afternoon. Our team is a bit spread out at the moment, and we have serious matters to discuss, as you are well aware. We generally do not take significant time, so I'm sure you can forgive us this once.

We did not have time to discuss anything during EPW's delay, as we did not know what we would receive on our turn.

Meh,

people need to be alot cooler about this game,

as Bill and Ted say, be excellent to one another.

Play the save as fast as you can.... and consider other peoples desire to keep the game going quickly and other teams need to take a while sometimes.

Still remember the warning above... within 48 hours at least...

if anyone needs to contact me at any time I'm on MSN as dwyerowen {ta} hotm...... even if just to say hello.

O.K,

Save got to me, too late for me to even think about playing (with screenshots and all).

Then, yesterday, I had to go somewhere, after work and didn't get home until 1:30 AM.

Tonight, I was thinking that Kloreep would be playing it, but he's not even online. And I have a very Important Job interview, early tomorrow, that I need to be ready for, so I won't be playing this tonight.

If it's not played by when I get back (sometime in Mid to late afternoon), then I'll play this.

Sorry about it.

the idea is to post here within the initial 24 hours

not just as 48 hours is coming to a close

you know this your team knows this

Well, because of recent events, no one really WANTS to even look at the save, little alone play it. And as for the 24 hour thing, see my post in that thread.

The odds of me playing the save today: 0.
The odds of me playing the save tomorrow: 50/50.
The odds of me playing the save by Monday: 100%.

You math types can figure out the progression.

* snoopy369 thinks Paddy's been drinking too much ... it's saturday here, which means it can be no sooner than sunday in australia, regardless of international date lines.

Monday my time.

Playing will be significantly slowed, also, if I don't get the save attached in the email

Snoop, I've heard Ctrl-Q will have the desired effect, and is more painless than going through the motions. After all, you're merely opening the turn and disbanding cities as it is, right?

Perhaps soon the game speed may return to normal levels

Only thing that I can think of, is that DR played the save that OPD had set them. ANd he used the Admin password to access it and changed that password.

The thing is, that DR should have been able to play the one that I had sent them, as they didn;'t sent theirs to 1889 until approx 1/2 hour before he posted that he had sent it.

DR didn;t post that they had sent the save, so I wasn't sure which one they had played. I had specifially asked him (1889), via PM and he told me the above.

There might be a problem here.

ahh the old Admin password

maybe OPD sent the password to Beta or Kloreep then?

I dare say OPD is sound asleep about now...

and we finally got the timing sorted to - awesome that we are getting on track with that

good luck, hope Beta has it

did you email OPD?

Yeah, I didn't know about it, until I had gotten an e-mail from Beta about it (right after getting home and checking e-mail).

He had also copied in OPD and Kloreep and I had responded, right before posting here.

I did indeed play the save that OPD sent me.

It was my evening when I checked my email and saw the save from OPD (and none from Babylon). I then played the save. When I came to send it however, I found that my ISP had mysteriously crashed - a fact to which Paddy will testify since I was chatting with him on MSN and then disappeared, and sent him an SMS explaining that I couldn't get back online. It being rather late, I then went to bed and when I awoke the next morning I sent the save.

By this time of course (as I later discovered) ET had sent the save to me, but I had already played and sent the save that OPD had sent to me.

So a rather lengthy explanation, but that's what happened

Yep - it seems we have a problem. We cannot access the save.

Also - given E_T's explanantion of the timing of the save, coupled with Aqua's ISP problems, it looks like the 'skipped' save got played.

May I suggest that DR replay E_T's 'played' save, to get the game going again, and to save us the disadvantage of a 'skipped' turn.

Thank you in advance.

I PMed Dominae. He may still have the admin password from when he set this up. Babylon should also send him the save with a password request incase he would rather take care of this himself.

I'm happy to replay the turn if that's the consensus of opinion, though ET will need to resend it as I've since deleted it.

Please note that I didn't play the "skipped" turn out of spite, just that it was the turn available at the time I played it. No arguments from me

The save from ET should have been played in the first place.

A play back from there is needed
and has already begun......

More about this at the end of the game.

Save with.... whoever Aqualung sends the save to.
