It doesn't seem like Arco's playing anymore. Should we look for a sub? It's a difficult spot, but maybe someone might enjoy the challenge. Also boo for starting to stale without saying you're leaving.

Disclaimer: If they're like injured or out of Internet for days, the boo is rescinded.

Me miserable! which way shall I fly
Infinite wrath, and infinite despair?
Which way I fly is Hell; myself am Hell;
And, in the lowest deep, a lower deep
Still threatening to devour me opens wide,
To which the Hell I suffer seems a Heaven.

*Pokes head into thread*

I am a complete and utter noob who has never played a multiplayer game of Dom before, but if you're looking for subs I wouldn't mind joining. Gotta get experience from somewhere, and it looks like a while before you guys organize another game.

You'd kinda be subbing into death row. I'm willing to plunk you into Arco, but it would not be even vaguely pretty.

Hmm. Since we're forced to live with the score tables, maybe I should go ahead and collate them into graphs. Thoughts? Endorsements? Objections?

I didn't think things were that bad for Acro. With 33 grunts, 4 provinces and minimal research you might as well make them AI.

I've been meaning to ask some graphs, at least for the early game.

USEC, I'll keep you in mind if we lose anyone else viable.

Delta, barring sudden screaming objections I'll bite the bullet and do the initial formatting and reformatting necessary to produce legible graphs, though it probably won't be 'til tomorrow. 'Twill be a tedious hour...

Do we wanna set Arco to AI so they're at least not staling?

Very embarrassed, given I got one extension just a few days ago, but I'm going to need to ask for another, given holiday season/traveling.  (Actually, I'm going to look for a temp sub)

Is 24h going to be long enough? And for that matter, how is everyone else looking? Do we need to go to longer/no turns this week?

(sum1won, assuming we don't have e.g. a week off for everyone or something else that would obviate your need for a temp sub, should I infer from the above that you're finding your own sub and the rest of us needn't worry about it?)

If you delayed the turn on Tuesday so we don't have to submit anything on Christmas, that'd be cool with me.

I haven't been able to get a sub just yet.  Would a 48 hr turn timer for the holidays work for everyone, switching back at the end?

I'm cool with a holiday pause if people need it.

Graphs as of Turn 21:

Spoiler: Provinces (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Forts (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Income (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Gem Income (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Research (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Dominion (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Army Size (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Thrones (click to show/hide)

Admittedly, I don't know that I'd trust some of these for more than general trends; e.g., I know the research one has never reflected my actual numbers. But most of them seem convincing. Ish.

Executive decision: I pushed this turn to Monday morning (i.e., 24h delay); the next turn will have 96h (i.e., 'til Friday the 27th at 1030GMT).

Interestingly, the Thrones graph shows province control, not throne control.
