Trembling in his Treason-Hall, the speaker of the Suddewmen reviews reports fo the rise of Nawnia. "They grow powerful. Too powerful. Who will stop them?"

OOC: I'm looking forward to my hand-delivered 10k Euros.

[Twoy]

OOC: I'm looking forward to my hand-delivered 10k Euros.

OOC: They still have not posted the winning numbers.

Still OOC: What happens to ENCOM's two remaining cities if he fails to retake his capital on his turn?

Still OOC: What happens to ENCOM's two remaining cities if he fails to retake his capital on his turn?

If a player loses their last Capital, they have one turn to retake it. If they do not hold a Capital at the end of their next turn, they are out of the Game. All of their cities and units are removed.

Thanks. That's what I thought, but when I scanned the rules I missed it.

In other news. Doh! The lottery announcement is tonight not last night.

[Nihila]

Thanks. That's what I thought, but when I scanned the rules I missed it.

In other news. Doh! The lottery announcement is tonight not last night.

You're welcome. Also, ENCOM has roughly zero chance of retaking the capitol. Just way to many units inside for that, and they won't have siege.

And, drat. I'm going to be far away from internet-access zones for the next few days, so I'll have to wait a bit longer than tomorrow morning for the lottery news.

[Twoy]

OOC: No luck on the lottery.

[LTDave]

OOC: If only you had a luck-a-mancer.

BLANDCorporatio is up.

[Crovius]

He's got 1 more day! I'm posting my turn 7 in a bit.

[Twoy]

He's got 1 more day! I'm posting my turn 7 in a bit.

Everyone has had a turn since Bland's last turn, which means he can go now or wait a bit if he wants.

You, on the other hand, need to wait until everyone else has had a turn since your last turn or six days, whichever comes first.

[Crovius]

But he's on turn 8 or 9, i'm on turn 7... i should be going not since I go after Watermonkey

[Twoy]

To quote LTDave, "The turn order is fluid."

To quote the rules: "A player may not post their next set of orders until all the other players have also posted their next turn, or six days have passed since your last post. '

[BLANDCorporatio]

So I'm magically going to be 2 turns behidn him until he takes an extended vacation? How will that work if we interact with eachother?

To restate: His message, I won't even get it for 3 more turns.

[Twoy]

So I'm magically going to be 2 turns behidn him until he takes an extended vacation? How will that work if we interact with eachother?

You will be two turns behind until you manage to make your turn each turn as soon as possible, and he does not make his turn as soon as possible. If you interact, you interact as if the turns were occuring as they occur in real time.

To restate: His message, I won't even get it for 3 more turns.

Turn order from now is:
Black Hand
LTDave
Crovius
Twoy

If LTDave waits until 6 days after you took your last turn, then you can take your turn and partially catch up with him. I know the rules seema bit strange, but the idea was that no one would ever have to wait more than six days before they could take their next turn. However, those rules do not entitle someone to skip their turn for two weeks then take two or three turns in a row.

On the other hand, I don't think the intent of the rules is to permanently force Crovius and I to be so far behind everyone else - especially when we can be pushed into autopilot by waiting just a day or two.
