[Akhier the Dragon hearted]

   Since there has been interest in atleast starting the next round I started it. You can find the thread for round 12 here. Both this round and 11 seem to have reached the slow end game and enough people have been asking me to be let into the next round that I figured it was time.

[Darkwind3]

Postponing the turn 6 hours for myself, for finals-related reasons. Sorry to everyone wishing to get their turn six (well, probably fewer) hours earlier!

[MentalFather]

Only r'lyeh is sending the turns on time. It seems we aren't enjoying too much our sloooow paced game.   : P

Also we aren't as active as forty turns ago (no conversations in the forum).
Are Pythium and Pangea still in peace with everyone?

East kingdoms are still involved in "the big war", with no clues about who will rise.
Someone said 60 turns ago he was going to do an AAR. Ignoring some players staled to new records, I think we had interesting battles and alliances this game. Is the idea of AAR still alive?

[ThtblovesDF]

Ha, I wake up at night with a cold sweat "OH GOD DID I SET OBSCURO TO SIDE SEARCH" (I did) and yeah, I'm German, so I get my shit done on time, it's not like i have a choice in the mather.

What are you talking about? There's still twelve hours left to send in the turn.

But we have 3 days to send the turns, and we all wait until 3 last hours.
That is what I'm talking about.

I submit my turn as late as possible so I don't need to resubmit the file every time I decide to make a change (which is quite often).  If I noticed that I was continuously the last person submitting my turn then I would start sending it in earlier so as not to keep people waiting.  That doesn't appear to generally be the case though.

[Knave]

Yeah, I generally take a look at the turn, do some initial moves then add stuff over the next few days before sending it in.

And I don't think being at war with AI nations counts, so I'm still everyone's best friend, right? Right!?

Well, I've been trying to send in my turns earlier. I just haven't had time recently; I ought to now though. Besides, you're one to talk, sending your turns in later than almost everyone else

There's just not much to talk about - the state of the eastern continent is still perpetual war, and Pan and Pythium are both basically at peace (war with AI isn't real war). If there were any major breakthroughs, we might have something to talk about, but I don't think anyone has managed to do anything big yet (sans Ermor's march through C'tis between Boksi leaving and gman picking it up - thanks again for that!). It's all just trying to annoy each other to death for now.

Looks like Pythium staled. Did you forget to send the email/your email ate it? Both have happened to me before.

>.<

Don't misunderstand me, I wasn't pretending to blame anyone, I just noticed everybody is waiting for the last moment.
And I do it often, sometimes to think strategies until the last moment, other times because I'm stupid and remember the turn 5 minutes before the end of the turn.


Edit: Also, does anyone noticed that barbarians are attacking very often this game?
Every turn I have at least an attack.

[Darkwind3]

Sorry for misunderstanding you, then! It is strange, but the round was meant to be slow from the start, so I guess it's working. I can't say I haven't been glad for the slow speed at times (and likewise hoping everyone gets their turn in fast at others). I usually just put in my turn as soon as it's done, so I know I at least have something when the turn hosts, but I usually make a couple adjustments afterwards.

As for barbarian attacks, well, don't take misfortune 3 then You've got a giant empire and terrible luck scales. The only thing keeping you from disintegrating entirely is Order 3. Misfortune doesn't just make more bad events happen, it also unlucks more. You're getting a lot of barbarian attacks because Misfortune 3 unlocks multiple independent attack events. Not only do you roll more unlucky events but more of those unlucky events will be indy attacks.

I'm a bad person who forgot to send in the email. Or rather, I was distracted with other things and then "ding" new turn came in.

Eriu took Misfortune 3? Dang, that's pretty ballsy.

[Knave]

Awwww poop, I could've sworn the turn was due today not yesterday. Ah well... I'll have to save my plans for this turn

[MentalFather]

Turn in.

Awesome way to use a prophet, Darkwind (not sarcasm, she was pretty annoying).

I hope someone finishes this game massing tartarian, or wish, or whatever (it's getting a bit boring).

Better yet, with her dead, I can actually prophetize someone worth propheting! That'll be nice.

Your (thunder strike x1)(retreat) Tuatha are going to be a pain in the ass until I kill them, I'm sure.

Honestly, this game has been dragging on. That's what happens with gemgens, though. If this were CBM the game would probably already be decided.

e: for once, I'm actually the last person to send in their turn! I probably will be next turn as well, unfortunately.
