Can I get a 24 hour extension or so? I doubt that I'll be able to submit my turn today, sorry.

Thank you very much. I'll get the turn in ASAP. Can't play Doms on a phone, after all.

Alas, another divinity left dead on the battlefield. And somehow I guess Rumia won't be called back any time soon. Or ever.
It's a shame she didn't get to wade through my infantry lines in a last hurrah, but I didn't want to end up like Midgård did. Any lessons to take from this? I know I learned that 21MR isn't a whole lot if you're trying to keep something alive through soul slay spam.

Nice work with the last minute seductions though, lost a few mages there. Obviously not enough, but a fair few fort turns worth of recruitment still.

In unrelated news I lost 62 gems to a bad event. That was unpleasant. And as far as I can tell the province it happened in had misfortune1 but no drain. Nasty. Very nasty.

Was it a gem thief, by any chance? Because I had a similar event that pushed by gem stockpiles back a couple turns, SUPERB OWL damn it.

Yes, yes it was. Was it a global thing? Or was it instigated by an individual player? I don't know.

I'd like to know.

*shrug* Must have been a global thing then. The coincidence is too high otherwise.

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.

9 Earth gems, here.  Drat it all, and I absolutely need Earth gems. >_<

EDIT: Oh, fun little comparison between the in-game list of claimed thrones and Llamaserver's list of actual throne provinces controlled, since I was wondering how all these grand sweeping conquests actually boiled down as far as victory (14 points) was concerned. 
Midgard: 6/6
Jomon: 3/5
Man: 2/4
Abysia: 3/4
Pangaea: 3/3
Bogarus: 2/2
Caelum: 0/1
Patala: 0/1
Mictlan: 0/0

Some of it's a bit out of date; for instance, I know from the information in this thread that Jomon just took Patala's last throne province, so that 1 will likely be transferred to Jomon next turn.

Huh. I didn't realize I had that many victory points. I was way more focused on how behind I was in provinces.

The moment the lever was pulled, somebody's pet kitten stepped onto the bridge. I read somewhere that if a cat falls more than 11 stories, it instinctively flares its legs out to increase air resistance. This slows it down enough to stick the landing with relatively minor injuries. In Dwarf Fortress, apparently, cats don't do that.

Yeah, I got his throne province.
In related news it starts to look like Man will lose a few of his thrones too, mainly to NOT-Jomon. Too many takers to figure out just how many and to whom.

How many one-on-one wars have there been, two? Both were interrupted by the international peacekeeping community :-D

We have such responsible world leaders.

It IS kind of interesting. Scary, too, though. The ends of the wars are always kind of like "welp, hope I'm not the next target!"

Three, I believe. The First Man-Abysian War (which devolved into everyone ganging up on Patala), the Mictlan-Pythium War (which Bogarus has successfully intervened with), and the Second Man-Abysian War (which is still ongoing).

And the start of the wars too. And their middles. Really, the entire game has been 'Welp, hope I'm not the next target!'

Seems llamaserver is having some problems and is not processing the turns despite having all 2h files. I'll let you know if I hear any developments.

Yeah, Thank the lord (of Bogarus) for saving Pythium.
