Psst. It was supposed to be a PM.

Bogarus was me, anyway, though, so no big deal. I’ll get to the AAR at some point in the near future. Sadly our snow day time is behind me now and I have less time for fun.

The Tour
Current turn has been pushed back 24 hours.
Following turns will be on a 48 hour timer.

Lots going on. Pythia is massed for war everywhere, chunking out troops from tons of castles. Caelum is on Man’s border, but has the mobility to hit everybody. Agartha did what? to who? Was that a Pearl Harbor there that Eriu committed against Ashdod or what? Spectacular. If you miss a turn, you miss a lot.

4303

Yeah, I totally missed that too, but after I already posted. My bad.

4304

I’m looking forward to it Nate. It’s been an interesting game. No more can be said :)

4305

Wow, look at all the ponyshit on the lawn - did someone leave the stable door open again?

4306

Hey, is it too late to request a roll-back? ;)

4307

Crazy Ashdod needs some cash quick!

We’ve got loads of gems and we’re looking to unload them for CRAAAAAAZZZZZYYYYY prices!

You got gold?!

You like gems?!

You wish you could buy gems, but no one is selling?!

Thanks to lucky dominion, we have just about every size, flavor and color of gems imaginable!

We even have virgins!

Also, don’t forget to ask about our Pound of Flesh PROMOTION. That’s right folks, Crazy Ashdod is paying YOU to take provinces from select nations!

For more information, send Crazy Ashdod a pm.

Totally unrelated to anything - does anyone know where in the turn resolution sequence ‘mail’ gets handled? I can’t seem to find it anywhere…

I managed to find this old post on Shrapnel, which a cursory review seems roughly accurate when compared to the Turn Resolution article on the wiki, but it has way more stuff. Suggests messages are at the beginning, after recruitment and before research.

Curious why anyone would want to know about that?!?! (since can’t ever recall this one being asked before)

The message log provides huge clues as to when something happened in the TRS. As the earlier in the message log something appears, then the early it happened in the TRS. And since messages and item/gems received stuff is pretty much always at the very top, you can be pretty certain it happens very early. I think it might only be messages from the server that are higher in the message log. (eg. Nation X had unexplained increase in wealth).

AFAIK the absolute full 100% TRS isn’t actually known. (it might not ever need to be either). As there are likely still a few little tidbits that haven’t been nailed down yet (eg. when freespawn happens took a while to work out, but was eventually due to vfb. And IIRC something came up a while back that people weren’t sure where in the TRS is took place). The TRS on the Wiki covers most things players would need to know, and as Gandalf and Lch say in that linked thread you can find out some of more obscure ones from the log file (the “host” entries are made in the log when you host a turn. So you won’t see them for MP games).

4311

Actually, it was an offshoot of the crazy ashdod joke. I was just curious if you were really out of money, and traded for it, if it would arrive in time to pay your troops before they deserted.

4312

The Tour

It is with great pain that Agartha announces we are cancelling all our Nap’s as of turn 23. Three turn Naps will expire on 27. Four turn naps will go on 28.

I don’t know that I have ever had a map this thoroughly scouted and been this unsure about exactly what is happening.

4313

Finally going to wake up and do something this game?

4314

pyrhic, are your guys just going to hide behind your walls? Come out and play with us. Play with us. Come play. You want to play with us?

Horsing around is so much fun…

4315

Man agrees with this sentiment. And we’ve arrived for playtime.

4316

The hiding behind walls part?

4317

No, that would be Pythia ;).

4318

Your raiding wardens are SO CUTE!!!

4319

One nation is asking for another 30 hours for the next turn.

The sooner we kill the ponyfolk the sooner the game will get back to it’s regular schedule.

Hey dfs, did you pay attention to my PM asking you to change the email addy I need turns sent to?
