Or were going to fly him to my Capital to stealth preach.

I don't even know where you Capital is. What would be the point? Besides CAW CAW

Mictlan has poor dominion spread (at least initially), so a stealthy flying prophet could conceivably reach my Capital in the first few months and knock me out of the game. Heck, there's a not-insignificant chance I'll be killed by event next month!

Little question :
If I send another .2h file to the llamaserver, does it replace the old one ?
I though about something I should do after submitting my turn (and won't be able to do for 11 hours, because of work)... :/

As long as you get it in before it hosts, yeah, Llamaserver will just use the most recent .2h it's gotten from each player.

Oh, ok, the usual then.
I'll just have to bet either Boksi or Hugehead doesn't submit their turn for another 10 hours...
Or simply wait the next turn ^^

Boksi, if you are about to submit your turn, please delay it for 10 or 20 minutes, i'll try to re-submit an updated one myself ! :)

Yeah, I've been delaying it because I've been waiting for you.

On a tangent, look at the Dominion chart. I've got the biggest gain, and it's pretty obvious I've got an awake pretender with high dominion. Whatever could I be doing? Anyway, what's puzzling me is that three nations start out lower than the rest. I don't recall that happening in Dom3.

I was really confused by that as well.

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

During some of my games my dominion has started at 1, and slowly crept up to what my base dom value is. I think this has only happened with dormant/imprisoned pretenders, if it matters. Could it be that?

edit:
Llamaserver apparently has (had?) some issues today so don't be surprised if the turn doesn't get processed right away.

That could be it. Only two people seem to have awake pretenders(barring a pathless wyrm or something), but only three people started low. Maybe it only happens with imprisoned pretenders?

I was also thinking that it could happen based on the base dominion of the pretender, before additional points are invested.  Though, there are some possible issues with that idea - Jomon, Midgard, and Pangaea are the three that started low.  I can safely say that I didn't pick a pretender with a base (uninvested) level of 1 Dominion, though. 

I could answer that, but then, I would have answered that ... :I
I think you just answered it by saying you would answer it by saying you could answer it. ^_^

I can verify that it's not tied to base dominion. It MIGHT be because of dormant/imprisoned, but mine's not imprisoned and I don't think 7 of the 10 of us have awake pretenders. Although maybe that's the case.
