Looks like we are ready to roll…

Yep, looks like we are good to go. I’ll just double check everything, then hit the start button.
Make sure you download the correct map (I’ll post the link on the game page too) or you’ll get funky error messages!
You are using the @dominionsqt3.com emails?
If I used another email for other games, do I need to change anything other than Reply from the @dominionsqt3.com one?
I’m only using the @dominionsqt3.com addresses for communications from me, in case I need to speak to any player privately (for things like turn extensions, substitutions, etc)
Llamaserver just uses whatever email address you sent the pretender from
ok, I used the @dominionsqt3.com one.
Checking, and there it is!!
psayanojim can change it to an alternate email if you prefer, on the llamaserver admin page. Just PM your request.

I was mostly amused with all the pretender names…except Jomon’s, which is named…Jomon.
That’s either a lack of imagination or a deep, penetrating insight into the complexities of the inner ego, symbolic of man’s struggle against himself manifesting in the existential consciousness of the subliminal personality. A somber, prophetic look at modern life, and the barriers that constrain humanity’s need to express themselves.
At a guess, I would go with the second.

Hah, nice! I forgot to take a look at the pretender names myself. I think I will make a list of the nations and guess the players and reveal at the end of the game to see if I was right on any of them.

I probably shouldn’t admit this, but whomever keeps dying and losing artifacts, please keep doing that as I keep snatching them up ;).
A most perceptive and lucid commentary upon our collective existential angst, Akaoni. Bravo!
…but I like Sir Fartsalot.

Odd, all turns are in and quickhost is on, but it isn’t hosting. Had the same issue at game start, it should have auto-started when all pretenders were in but I had to manually start it.
I’ll toggle the quickhost settings and if that doesn’t work, I’ll try forcing it
Yeah, just noticed that. Even though it gives a new next turn due date…
The turn date changed after I tried toggling the settings to wake it up (changing the hosting interval bumped the time). I’ve tried switching quickhost off and on again too.
I think its probably a llamaserver issue, I’ve noticed a couple of other games with quickhost/autostart on and all files received, but are just sitting there.
perhaps the map generation hangs on the settings? it does for me for 12 and 10 players. 9 is ok?
I dont think its a problem with our game, theres a few games now on llamaserver that have all their turns submitted with quickhost on and have gone past their turn time.
I think its a llamaserver issue… normal post-patch instability.
Yep, llamaserver has a message up now. Hosting delays expected.
yeah, false alarm: apologies. works fine with world creation for 12.
the wait is on. along with, in an 80’s sense, the heat
