turn 116 to frog
To the nations of the world, Please accept the no trespass I sent. We are staying peacefully in our own space and we are not mapping anyone elses coast and we expect the same consideration from my neighbors.
Excuses why I should accept this are stupid and we do not want to hear how we are supposed to give you something again. We do not want to hear the argument of how we are hogging the land. So if you think you are entitled to something either take it or leave us alone!!
Leave us alone and we will leave you alone. We realize you have to do this at some point so I will not "let" you do it under threat of retaliation. We warned all last time and still the Dornheimer show up and refuse to leave or accept a no trespass, so you can accpet it this time or attack me. No negotiating this point. Stop trying to map me. To the allies:mongols, americans and Dornheimer, if you continue this harrasment and it will be met.

So I just got turn 117 from horned frog and some of my major cities revolted. I got a message that said that my wages were set at a lower level and my people were not happy about it.

When I looked at my previous turn (116), I had cash flow to spare. As an experiment, I replayed my last turn and then opened and closed each succeeding turn to get to my present turn (117) -- without looking at anything but the "end" button. When I did this, none of my cities revolted and everything was fine. I still had cash flow to spare despite building a few improvements with some fairly high maintenance costs.

Also, I didn't get any messages in turn 117 that my trade routes were pirated.

So . . . help me out here. I think my game isn't always giving me the right messages for some reason. As we all fondly remember some of the issues about my trespassing in Viking waters, one of the problems I was having is that the game wasn't alerting me that I was trespassing. So I'm wondering if this is a similar problem. Did I actually get a bunch of my trade routes pirated and the game just isn't telling me? Can anyone help me out on this? I'm kind of stalling on playing this turn until I can figure what the heck happened.

p.s. I received no request for a no trespass from the Vikings. But I think our previous agreement is still in effect. So we can renew when it expires.

p.p.s. Did anybody else see in their turn a notice that my cities had revolted? I'm just kind of baffled because I've never had anything like this happen before and it doesn't seem to make sense.

[dancemasseuse]

I did not see anything on my turn. I, nor my allies, pirated any of your trade routes. Hmmm, are your allies messing with you??? Ken

[dancemasseuse]

I realize you will try ot blame me for starting a war, but since I warned people a long time ago, that means green chose to push me. I will destroy any ships left in my area when my turn comes around. I offerd a no trespass. if I erred in sending it and according to thehappies comments I may have I will hold off one turn. but if they are present I will destroy them. if you have a problem with english, then your game is not printing the "no trespass" in the wrong language and it is still on you.

[hatschy]

I didn't see anything either, nor did I pirate or destroy anything.

[thehappies]

Oh well. I have no idea why this happened and it makes absolutely no sense to me why my cities revolted. But I guess I just have to deal with it.
