Buy the game? Or maybe one of the other round 9 players would let you use their key if you ask nicely.
This won't work (just for reference), allegedly if you use the same key on 2 different computers, the game will refuse to process one of them saying it had a "key violation". This apparently comes up a lot in lan parties.

It doesn't work if two different computers playing the same game, have the same key, but I guess the point is kind of irrelevant.

The server is currently out-of-order, and the games are not being updated/processed. Usually it doesn't take more than a couple of days for llamabeast to fix it up.

Hmm, so I'm thinking of doing an After/During Action Replay for this game. Would some of you be willing to send me pretender files and turn files periodically? I'll delay by 10 or 15 turns so that it wouldn't let other people cheat. I'd do nation summaries and pretender analysis initially with overall game recaps every 5 turns or so. It probably won't be super involved, but it'll give nonplayers something to look at.

This slows it down enough to stick the landing with relatively minor injuries. In Dwarf Fortress, apparently, cats don't do that.

Yeah, I'd be happy to. It's not like there's any work involved in forwarding an email.

It'll come back up when it comes back up. I haven't seen anything from llamabeast yet, but expect to give it a day or two.

Go to the game page and look for the "last updated at/on" line near the bottom.

Thanks guys! I think I can get info about pretenders if you want to send me pretender files at some point. It'd be really nice to have consistent viewpoints (if people send me something try to send me turns at least every 5 turns or so) but something is better than nothing!

As for figuring out if the server's working, try just checking your game's page on the llamaserver site and seeing if a1s's turn (Ulm) is counted as submitted (also the other things karlito and Il Palazzo said while I was typing this up). It's not the best way, but it should work. The game should just go when the kinks are worked out. I tried searching for a server status thread and couldn't find one, just this thread started by other people when it froze up. Maybe check that thread periodically to see if he posts?

I'm fine with sending along some files as well. I'd even be willing to explain some of the choices I made, both while building the nation and during the game, for your writeup. I can't say I've made any really crazy decisions so far, but who knows how the game will play out?
