Why would you even want to have fun playing a video game?

there is a difference between droping red numbers representing magma on Es representing elves, and finding it hot when a girl moans like a retarded seal

I could not have created a more accurate avatar if I tried...

It's not as accurate as mine, if I may say so myself.

(Obviously, I'm referring to "the Face Painted with Bells".)

"Lord of Suicides" is even more accurate for creating this monstrosity.   :P

It's not impossible that I was being sarcastic when I suggested that the enigmatic "Face Painted with Bells" was the most apropos aspect of Uganwald's deity...   ;)

Ok, apparently being in two games of Dominions caused one to stall.  If it happens again, I'll most likely quit one or more of these games.

Anyone have any advice on playing two multiplayer games of this game on Llamaserver?

Um... no idea. This is far from the first time I've done two at once, and I've never had this problem. Did you get submission acknowledgement for both turn submissions?

Most likely the mod nations having similar names meant that I accidentially sent the same turn twice instead of sending one of each.

Since the .2h files have uncreative names of "modnat_103.2h" and "modnat_105.2h", it is easy to see how the mistake would happen.

Just submitted next turn for both.  But it may be that I've bitten off more than I can chew.  We'll see.  Not abandoning anything yet.

The poor hoburgs need me...to kill them.

Pfft. Lightweight. When 417 was still going, I had two modnat_103.2h files at the same time, and I didn't stale.  :P

Really, the only thing you can do other than double-checking what save directory you're pulling from is double-check confirmation emails. I wish I had some super-clever trick for this, but there's nothing else you can do.

For future reference, is that name something that's changeable in the generated mod files, or is it something the game itself comes up with for every mod nation based on its ID#?

Edit: I looked in the nationgen_la.dm to answer my own question and concluded that since it's not in there, the game must be coming up with it instead of using the nations' actual names. Sounds like the sort of quality of life thing that could be improved in a patch.

I've got two 110s, and likely for a longer duration than you had to deal with. :D

I'm pretty sure its actually a Llamaserver thing, not a dominions thing.

Anyway, Euchre what I do is I open my directory then only download one file at a time and immediately move it to the appropriate folder before doing the other one.
Granted, I staled at the same time you did, but mine was more a "I'm not sure when this is due by" error then a mix up.

EDIT: WHAT?! I STALED IN THIS TOO? WTF?? WHAT IS THE TIME LIMIT ON THIS THING SET TO, TEN MINUTES? I...kinda wanna call BS on that one.

7/10 Has much more memorable sigs but casts them to the realm of sigtexts.

Indeed, I do this.

Nope, it's a dominion/Natgen thing : It's the same name as the Pretender you made with Dominion for your nation.
I didn't see a command in the modding manual that would allow us to change that, though.

Does it actually require that they keep that name for it to know what nation they are for?
