[Ottoman Empire (DoE)]

Okay, well, that takes care of the double move issue as well

Not exactly, But Yea anyway, for the record, I am not asking for a reload to undo America's turn order snafu, I was out of town and missing turns anyway so it wasn't like any great harm was going to come from something like that.

Hey folks! I haven't seen what is happening in the game, I just got back to my computer now and read through a flurry of PMs.

As I understand it the proud nation of England faced a great threat to our security by our eternal enemies, the French & Vikings. I, Queen Victoria, have been away on holiday and have left all affairs of state to my Prime Minister, Winston Incaco Churchill. It seems our enemies began rapidly arming and building a massive fleet with which to threaten our homeland. Military advisors were warning of a return to the dark days of the Great War, a fate none of us could allow. It was established policy that this was to be avoided at all costs, so even though Prime Minister Churchill was also away, our generals got approval from my son, Edward VII (product of my union with the Russian royal house) who made a quick decision to attack and (hopefully) sink the French fleet. As it was uncertain whether the Prime Minister would be available in time to take action, they decided they could not wait.

I have now been brought up to speed by my son, our military leaders, and our allies and this action is in complete concordance with my wishes.

[Germany (DoE)]

I just had a quick look at my offline save of the France turn and the DA had declared war on France, cancelled trades and OB but NOT attacked any French units.

So the attack must have occured on the second login. I think the turn should be played over from before the French turn in the interests of fair play.

[Germany (DoE)]

The question is:
Did England declare war on his first login? If so then it is a double move-->reload
If they declared war on their second login, after France, then there is no need to keep the game paused.

I played the current French turn and DA was already at war with France - showing the usual Cease Fire diplo screen which I cancelled. I thought this was some mistake or hangover from the old war so for the first time I investigated the French civ. played the turn. then re-offered the cease fire.

I have very little time to invest in the game and will not be able to replay the turn for 12 hours or so. I asked someone else if they could play it.

sry.

[Vikings (DoE)]

I now have two people who claim to sub for England.
Can you both please PM me and explain why you are the real england sub? Untill then I'll server-side pause the game.

And someone please explain to me exactly what this double move, or whatever it was that caused the reload, is so I can tell France's likely sub that he needs to play again.

What is it with you guys and attacking France the minute he goes on vacation?

[Vikings (DoE)]

Umm, what happened with this automove/reload thing? I just got kicked out of the game.

Did it have something to do with France? He just left on vacation this morning. I was not asked to play his turns for him, but his sub may have played. If there was some type of different move that might be the reason why.

[Inca (DoE)]

So upon coming in to play my turn, it seems things were not where I left them... This time I logged in most recently is the first time I have played in the turn (as the English sub). I did not mean to double-move, but then I didn't think I had, because I personally have not. (England did not password their civ).

Sorry to break anonymity, but I think this is an open secret anyway at this point.

Actually, no, someone moved the naval units away from their destinations, and I demand a reload as it can make a rather large difference perhaps.

France can still move first, of course.

And, for the record, I do not personally condone what I have to do as England, so don't take my actions out on my actual nation, k...

[America (DoE)]

Okay, well, that takes care of the double move issue as well

[Robert]

Server crashed, restart undid the Aztec turn... I'm sorry aztec, seems that even the game admin is against you...

[Arabia2 (doe)]

nvm

[America (DoE)]

Hey everyone,

I just logged in to do my turn and then the turn flipped; I didn't realize that were only minutes left on the clock. I thought nothing of it first, but then remembered that the Ottoman and I are in a state of war. However, the Ottoman are currently focused on Tlexcoco and I did nothing there during my turns, the situation remains exactly as it was three turns ago. The troops have left the city, as it is impossible for America to defend that town against any planned onslaught, because America does not have the naval capacity to bring any troops there. So if the Ottoman are ok with it, shall we keep playing this turn without a reload? Sorry guys for not checking the clock, I am in transit and had to log in quickly at a gas station in Belgium

[Aztecs (DoE)]

OOC: there is no Azteca case. We don't ask for the measured war rule. It is in fact more a suicide

IC: We still strive for full restoration and full economical recovery of Azteca .... and we want to bring our case before the International Justice Bureau.
We demand justice, and we declare the Ottomans and Russians agressors and guilty of the worst possible war crimes..

[Russia (DoE)]

There must have been a "measured suicide" rule to help the Azteca case.

Azteca willingly transferred 66% of his cities to other nations (most of them in direct violation to the rules, stating that a nation in war can only gift cities to its enemies. Which is also easily avoided btw - a fictional DOW and voila - you can give away every city you desire)
