A band of lava-borns guarding a Throne have been converted to our faith and cause. Within the month, a temple shall be erected, and the Throne claimed in the name of our God. Thus I, Barbiel of Abysia, have commanded.

hmm...ok...not much RP here is...but no problem.

Hard to RP when there's nothing to RP about, sorry.
I though I had done a little RP as my god entered a little theatralic the council chamber...but perhaps we want something different? I don't know...it's not a must have...only a nice to have ;)

And I think Iijacote's ideas sound potential :)

By all means, RP is completely free! You don't have to deal with the council chamber at all if you don't want to. If you'd rather write a story about how your commanders deal with the now-independent provinces in Your name, that's ok too!

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.

Blah, I guess. I just don't want to give too much away, you know? I might work on some RP stuff eventually...

I only give away some fear...sure you can think there is critical tactical information revealed in this chamber but can you really be sure if this ethereal chamber visualize all as it truely is?
perhaps it is the best way to imaging wild and horrible visions in your enemies heads.

PS: I surely don't want to push someone to (this or other) RP...I hope noone gets this feeling...if so I'm sorry and point it to this foreign language called english :)

About the only things worthy of note for Marveni that happened on turns 2~3:

The fearless shirtless men of Marveni conquered the puny green-shirted men of the wilds!

They were promptly placed under holy law and deemed too puny for pure, shirtless combat.

Said green shirted men responded by flooding a local river. The people that caused the flood all drowned and the Government of Marveni paid dearly to enshrine the river as a weapon of justice.

It has hence been renamed the "Holy River of Shirtlessness."
There's no river in a province, so I guess it's more of a brook.

Ah, those side-cults of the rivers... aren't they cute ?

Nevertheless, I hope your women are as womanly as your men are manly, because you wouldn't like them to follow any siren in the ocean, would you ?
I mean, they're as shirtless as your warriors, but not for the same reason...

The young woman with the bloody skin smilies and speaks with her clear gentle voice:
"You all know that it will make no difference, right? Sooner or later your physical forms will be revealed but by now I will go with your blurring silhouettes.
We have to announce that Podargos the Berytian Prophet has claimed The Throne of Pestilence in the name of me. It won't be the last and I don't call for the
deads it will produce. You know it's for a greater good...me."

After some short break she continues:
"It seems that our dominion spreads over the land and has attracted the well known King of the City Ba'al Hammon who will fight for our cause and
gets the land from these poorly hands of independent forces that rise around us all. Be excited to see temples rising all over Biddyn which will
spread our Melqarts lessons for a better life."

The intensity of the fountains blood flow rises and sprays a bit of blood smell into the room.

Apparently llamaserver thought my turn 5 file was turn 6. (Hence stale turn 6)

Lesson learned: Never double-send turns to llamas. They will anger and it will be very saddening.

hmm..something wrong is going on with Llamaserver.

I send my turn 6 one time and received 2 turn-sending-mails while I'm sleeping. Send Turn 7 comes in and then I got 3 "Problem - 2h for wrong turn number".

I will take a look into Turn 7 if it is alright.

Edit: Ok, turn seems fine and the info in the llamaserver-mails seems to relate all to my email. Strange.

I can't even access the Llamaserver.

Also, I'm sorry that I didn't notice the incoming stale before now. I've failed you :'(

not your fault :

Note that I sent (twice) my 2H before getting the reminder at the bottom of this picture, and didn't sent anything afterwards ...

llamaserver bugged, and we should (try to) rollback to turn 5-6.

Well, that's a very unfortunate set of emails. I gather it staled you, too? I'm a bit reluctant to rollback to turn six if it was just one stale, but if we got multiple and it was because of server issues, I see no problem with a rollback. Well, besides the usual potential doom for the game :p

EDIT: Right, half the players staled. We'll definitely rollback. I'll be sending you an email with some instructions on what to do (which I'll also paste here), and then you'll get the rollback.

Hey, friends! As the Llamaserver ran into some trouble, we're rolling back to turn six to get the turns from tompliss, GP Trixie and AshSaber. I'd like confirmation from each of these players when they've sent in their turns, so we can get on with forcing the game to resolve the turn.

_NOBODY ELSE_ is to send in their turn file, as Llamaserver already has them. They'll be processed without any input needed.

IMPORTANT (read all of it!):
As a safety precaution, I'd like everyone to delete both the .2h and .trn files before sending anything to the Llamaserver (the three stalers should obviously download the turn 6 .trn file after). That means all of you have to redo your seventh turns.

This way we can avoid the game becoming unplayable on us.

The last turn I sent to the llamaserver was the 5th. I will be able to send the 6th this evening, in 9 hours.

Huh, that's weird. For me it was saying turn 6 and 7. Also, I sent my turn 6 in about 20 minutes before getting the turn 7 .trn, and sent in my turn 7 .2h less than an hour later (after which I went to bed, so I never saw any of the error emails  :D).
