Save Game Thread II: On the Eve of Destruction ...

[Aqualung71]

Turn sent to MWIA, who will play it in the morning, which gives LN another 12 hours or so to play it.

[Paddy]

Why the extra 12 hours?

also each save is sent to the admins gmail account as well as the next team, so he should have access to it.

[Aqualung71]

True, however I stopped doing that when 1889 requested some time back that the save be sent only to him and not his other team members.

In any event, 1889 has now played and sent the save.

Addressing that, from now on I want all saves to be CCed to the Admin inbox as well, so that delays like this can be resolved as early as possible.

Aqua - if you wouldn't mind, please add the eoddemogame gmail address to your list of those you send the Desolation Row save to.

err, pending the approval of Lord Nuc, if you send a save to me as well as him, I will do my best to handle it if there is a problem. Maybe dup us both on the saves until LN has internet issues resolved? It wouldn't hurt to clue me in if things are slow so I can beat the 24 hour deadline. Things seem to be out of sync at the LB for a moment, but what do you expect from creatures that sleep during the day and date at night?

I can be found at cbeetzATTHINGcomcastDOTMARKERnet if you need to.

Please remember that I am something of a slinking lurker but not unfamiliar with CIVIII. I may have some problems with the mechanics of things but I assure you that I can handle the rest.

Thanks cb - it is much appreciated.

Now I will hassle both NukeMaster AND you if the save is missing.

I'm playing this right now, but I'm not certain that I can get it finished before I start to fall asleep at the keyboard (as it;s 5:30AM here, now).

I've made all Military Moves, posted the Battle Report and still have a couple of Domestic cr@p things to do, before sending off. I hope to get it done before I completely fade away, but I'm not making any promises at this time.

Just play the turn. Others get it done.

Your team has had the save for nearly 22 hours.

It is the weekend, lets get this game moving again, not draggen' its butt into the pits of boredom...

It seems that you have a lot of issues for not being able to play the save. You do not go over everytime, but E_T you certainly have gone over the 24 hour time frame a lot.

Maybe you need to step down as turnplayer, and let another person step up. There are a lot of people here that can play their saves in the allocated time frame for each turn.

Ok!

Well, I had 2 power glitches, right after I had gotten home from work.

/me wishes that Hurricane/Tropical Storm Ophelia would just go away...but no, it's just moving slowly and getting ready to do a loop...

So, I decided to go out for a few beers and a little bit of "activities"

/me had a ball....

I then got home (well, there WAS the possibility of going somewhere else....) and power seemed fine, so I started on this.

Just as I was geting close to finished, MrWIA PM'ed me. I took time to respond. I also took time to post the Battle Report and in here.

Then, just as I was finishing up, likely less than 5 minutes away from sending it off (final worker things and WF stuff to do), I lost power for about 2 minutes (I heard a Transformer blowup, nearby and this caused the grid to go down for my area, breifly).

So, once doing a couple of reboots, started back on this again. Atleast I had kept up a running commentary/Report, while playing, so that I was fully able to redo the play.

I got it saved and sent via e-mail. Breifly passed out, then posted that I had sent the save.

So, The correct the time on when I had sent the save was 6:48AM EDT. I had posted that it was sent at 7:15 AM EDT.

So, use whichever time for the 24 hour start.

[EDIT] So, if I had not responded to WIA and not made the other 2 posts, first, then It would have been sent sooner. Right before the power loss. And I would have gotten to bed about 1 hour sooner....

Well, I just finished the save, but I have a question. What are the admin's e-mails that I must save the send to?

[Paddy]

emailed it to you

[Golden Bear]

Sorry, I don't know where to post this. I'm going back to lurking in the public forum.

Please do not send any LB saves to me or any LB info.

I'm declaring myself not involved with LB at this point. There is no ill will or any drama involved. Just a non alignment of expectations.
