Beyond the Pit [Pitboss Diplomacy Game] [Organization Thread V]

[classical_hero]

I had already mentally given up this game, which is why I was not concerned too much about missing a few turns the past weekend. I did say on occasion around the time when Persia got divided up that I did not like what was happening and that the game should have finished right there and then, but there were many calls to continue for the sake of continuing, so I did, even though I wanted this experience to stop due to all the rules that were broken in previous turns

I don't see why the game should have ended back then.
Especially not since we are now having this interesting end game.

The demise of Piercia was defenitely not the best part of this game, but Japan and Russia got the pieces of Piercia. It id not harm the balance of the game, I think.

[Pitboss Celts]

Welcome Jeroen. I encourage you to contact Ozzy ASAP to discuss peace terms. He has already sent terms to Rome to accept on your behalf.

[Pitboss Spain]

Thanks for the welcome! I am looking around to see what I inherited exactly, and then make my first move.

I am looking forward to the game!

[Pitboss Japan]

Welcome Jeroen!
We don't really have contact with Spain-never mind that we will be at war very soon .we actually admire the Spainish people fighting will against much more powerfull foes.

Again I'm trying to suggest that we put he timer to 22-23h (basicaly that would mean a 24h cycle) to make our life easier. The point is that most people can take his turn around the same time so it's much easier to keep the turn order.

I've putted the timer on 21 hours now, that should roughly mean about 24 hours per turn.
I can tweak it now and then to make sure that new turns start more or less the same moment of the day every day.
Let's try it for a while.

I ended and restarted the game b/c of some pitboss error.
I then logged into see if everthing was ok again. I did not play anything. Just saying here.

[Pitboss Portugal]

I am having problems connecting to the server. Robert can you look into this. I fear that I will miss my turn if this goes on.

If i can't connect, I ask that Khmer does not move anything against me next turn to balance this turn if i miss it.

[Pitboss Portugal]

OK i tried a couple of more times no luck here. The reason for this seems to be the different setup of the net in this hotel i am staying at.

I will be back home and able to resume my turn taking tomorrow.

To equal this miss turn I ask Khmer to not move anything against me next turn. This will allow me to take my turn and put things back to normal.

[Robert]

In how many hours are you home again, Portugal?
I can pause the game for 24 hours and launch it tomorow same time again...

[Robert]

I've paused the game for 24 hours. It'll be loaded again tomorrow this hour.

[Pitboss Russia]

I assume this means none of us can move?

[Robert]

I can launch if for you now to let you make you move.
Let me know it if you want it.

[St Jon]

How much time will be left on the clock after re-load? If it will start again from pause time then yes I would. I hope it isn't going to be 24hrs on top 24hrs?

[Robert]

+-8 hours from loading on.
I'll load it now so that you can play you turn, then I'll pause it thereafter again.

edit: it's on now.
