Berytos, I'm not plotting against you (for now), just stating the obvious : you have access to the most thrones.
You may not be able to recruit high priests, but you can summon them, and get a new prophet 6 months after the previous one died (which will be soon, I expect, if my winter caused his disease).
And there are teleportation spells for your pretender, too, so even without summons, you could claim 3 thrones in a single turn. You have one and need a total of 4, so I will try and make sure that thrones provinces are defended, even if not by myself.
perhaps your analysis is right but if I'm so far in research and such then I think other are too and they have the thrones at or in their borders too.

But it's ok...plotting, warning, scaring and all the other stuff is part of the game (and I love it ;) ).

(My previous post was totally OOC because it was already past midnight and I wanted reaction from people living acress the world during the night :p )
That's totally cool for me...better posting OOC than nothing. Such things spicing up the multiplayer games :)

but you should build up better scouts. from time to time they are caught in my land and I have to kill them.

Scouts are scouts are scouts. Not worth the time and gems summoning better ones when the generic guys work just as well. The scout's life is a dangerous one. Who cares if you snipe a couple? I can always recruit more.

I don't find any scout recruitable in normal provinces...
Is it because it's Early Age or because I'm unlucky ? (I have many in the Late-Age 4.05 noob game :/ )

Yeah, early age tends to lack the number of scouts that the latter ages do, don't ask me why. So unless you're a nation with special scout recruitment or willing to drop gold on a fort to recruit them, you're out of luck.

Abysia, fortunately, has no lack of flying scouts.

Unfortunately, they're far too valuable to actually use for scouting, most of the time.

Jumping in here, 401 needs a sub for R'lyeh. They're in a very lategame state, albeit not the best strategic position - they're strong, but very beset by two enemies, with half their forts (including their capital) besieged. OTOH, as stated, they're strong. They might be on the verge of folding, or they might be on the verge of breaking the offensive that's got them cornered, but letting them stale or go AI right now would at a minimum make life unfairly easier for two of the other four nations left. If anyone here wants to take a crack at it, this is a decent chance to play with some late-game action without having to deal with too much micromanagement in return.

I'm going to suggest Frumple for reasons.

Marveni's current status:

Very dead. So much dead.

But spamming as much horror marks as we can.

Ur's mega-army is on the move again at long last.

Ah, a stale! I have failed you.

Still threatening to devour me opens wide,

Shit, I just staled, didn't I? Goddamn it. Can we rollback so that I can submit my turn? I'm so sorry, I completely forgot about the game.

Unless we have a majority voicing their positive willingness to do-over, I'll rule against it. Rollbacks are dangerous, and should be used sparingly. If it's a critical turn with important battles and moves, I'm sure many will agree to your wishes, even if they oppose you in the game. Besides which, I can't even connect to the server at this moment.

I think I'll up the turn timer (when I can), seeing as how I'm now too busy to check on the game often enough. I think 32h is a nice, round number. I think it is also necessary to promote one of you to vice-admin duties. Any volunteer backed by one other player will get the post. The position entails postponing the game as necessary, if I am not around to notice the necessity. Also prestige

I don't mind a rollback.
I also don't mind being vice-admin, as I check the llamaserver every hour anyway ... :I
