Is there a reason for having the older version

It was the one on llamaserver an it was 1 AM... :-°
I'll change that tonight (as it doesn't matter as far as pretenders go).

[RexMundi]

is it too late to join?
EDIt: being informed i can join. can someone tell me how long i have to though, i need to sleep soon, so can make a god in 8 hours or so?

You can goto sleep
I'm at work and won't submit my god for at least 12 hours (or 36, if I miss my submit window tonight).

Well non-wraparound means that some of the players will be fucked from the start.
I just hope I'm not one of them. Happened to me as Yomi in another game, sandwiched between 3 other players.

Anyway, submitting pretender. Even though I don't know if it's a good one.

[tompliss]

I don't think spawning in a corner means you loose.
When you have only 2-3 neighbours, you can attack fewer players, but you can get attacked from fewer players.
Less risk, less reward, to put it simply.
Also, you have less provinces to defend, so you can put your armies where they are really needed, and you can even cut a few provinces from the other without conquering them at first, keeping the expansion opportunity for later times.

In your Yomi game, you were killing Ulm (before doing a mistake), even with only 2 neighbours at first...
On the other hand, where I am, I have 5 neighbours. It would only be real luck not to be attacked by any of those 5 players. (edited. yomi = jomon in my head ... :/ )

[HopFlash]

I can make and send my pretender tonight at the earliest (in 12 hours I think), so you would have some time too

[Mindmaker]

Oh I'm not complaining about starting corners, those are great.
I'm talking about the poor souls that don't start there.

Also Yomi, not Jomon.
That was an EA game on the very same map.

Well, those can have more allies, and I like Cradle specifically because it has many rivers and mountains (that act as natural borders), and the islands thingy divide the map in two already.

[Antur]

Hmm. Just realized i sent my pretender without turning on the mods. Do i need to resend it with them or it's fine ?

[tompliss]

They don't modify anything about the pretender, so you should be fine.

[RexMundi]

sent in pretender as Berytos, at least, i think i sent him in right..

[tompliss]

Well, the server has a pretender for Berytos, so I think you did it correctly.

You can check the game status there: http://www.llamaserver.net/gameinfo.cgi?game=Bay12GamesRound406

The server takes a dozen minutes or two to update, but you'll be able to see that nearly everybody sent his pretender (Hopflash is expected to send his in the next hours).

When the game is running, it looks like this : http://www.llamaserver.net/gameinfo.cgi?game=Bay12GamesRound404 (this is another game from here, currently active).
You can see near the top of the windows when the turn is due (the deadline for sending the Email with your turn), and at the bottom, the current date and time (because both are in GMT, and you don't want to send your turn an hour or two late ). you can also check who sent his turn, and whether the server received yours (even if it sends you a confirmation Email).

EDIT : updated for the last Worthy Heroes version in llamaserver. It's availalble here : http://llamaserver.net/burnsaber/dom4mods/ (link named Worthy_Heroes_v121.zip ).
And moghopper joined us, so we're only waiting for HopFlash now, and we'll start the game !

[HopFlash]

ok...ready to go I think

[tompliss]

OK, game should be launched in a few minutes, and you all will receive your first Email

hwo to play :

You'll be receiving .trn files from llama server, which you should put into a {dom4dir}/savedgames/{whatevernameyouwant}/
After finishing your moves, a new .2h file will appear in that folder, which you should send to the same address from which you've received your .trn file.

( {dom4dir} = %appdata%\dominion4\ in windows
