How do you deal with people who keep fighting you as another player takes SCs and wins?

1st place has 10 SCs, 2nd place had 8, I had 6. 2nd place kept attacking me even as 1st built up to 12, 14, 17 SCs even while I went defensive. 1st place was eating 2nd's centers and 2nd was playing like an idiot.

How do you counter that? I wasn't sure what I could do. The last two turns I went all out desperate attack against 1st place and 2nd didn't even bother and actually grabbed more SCs while I put on a desperate push to stop 1st from winning.

Gunboat multis

Is it just me, or are you immediately suspicious of newly created anonymous gunboat games with only two people registered? Does that reek of obvious multi?

So, with the Pack beating the Saints--sorry, Eden--the NFL season is underway...picks?

Question about muting

So, I've finally found myself annoyed enough with someone on the forums to mute them; not saying who as that would defeat the point of the mute, and I had a question:
If I'm playing an anon game with someone that I've muted, are they muted in the anon game too, or can they still chat normally in the game?

Quick question about Mods...

I emailed a Mod a few days ago about a Meta gamer, and I haven't heard back. I understand that Mods are all volunteers and have their own lives/games to attend to, but does anyone know about how long it takes to get a response (on average)? Or if I can expect one at all after they've 'investigated'?

On a side note.. has anyone noticed a stark increase in the occurrence of meta/multi gamers the past couple months??

Apologies, something odd happened with the cache after a code update (but for some reason it took a bit of time before things started going wrong).. Still haven't got the update system down on this new machine, but I'll test it out further tonight

Thanks for notifying me and for the quick response abge, I'll add an hour and take the panic mode off

I can see the map now, but my builds haven't appeared (we had a phase rollover at around the same time as the problem). Is anyone else experiencing that?

I can see some maps, but not others. I'll check back here for updates on the situation.

I had a map where I couldn't see it, then I could, then orders processed and I couldn't again, all since this thread started lol

You actually can't issue orders on newly created units and they don't appear on the map, at least in my case.

Sorry guys I'll have to fix this in a few hours.. no idea what is causing this, really bizarre problem and I have to run, I'll add time to compensate for the downtime.

Hopefully maps are now being generated, I think it has something to do with this:
https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53585

Will do some more tests and wait for confirmation before adding time and starting things back up though

Hello Kestasjk,
Thank you, I can see maps now and on first glance they look OK. Personally I'd be happy with lots of extra time for my moves and diplomacy: in timezone GMT+1 (western Europe) this glitch occured on sunday morning: normally that's one of my favorite diplomacy moments :)

my game is stuck on pause for some reason. We only just moved to a build phase. And it's the only one of my games paused. Odd. Should i just be patient?

kestasjk (99 )
11 Sep 11 UTC

I've added 24 hours or so, since there was a good 6 hours in which people couldn't really place orders (though it wasn't peak time there are people like redhouse who could use the extra time if given to them)

If everyone wants to move their game ahead they can all submit as Ready and it'll move ahead, and unfortunately I think that'd be best in this case.

Apologies for the downtime / extra time. On the plus side we are now running the up to date code, and now that we've made the switch updates will be much smoother going forward

redhouse1938 (429 )

To Kestasjk: Thanks.
To Cockney: whatever.

Hello Fellow Europeans + North Africans and Middle East people

I wonder if any one of you have a tendency to secure your real-life home country? If, for instance you are British in real life and start out as Italy in the game, would you consider sending a fleet to all the way to Britain in the small chance of taking a bite?

Question for Euro-Zone people

How does the whole soveriegn debt fiasco look from your point of view?

I know that people from Europe sometimes find it baffling how the safety net is much weaker in the US than in their home nations, but I think we here find the level of tax evasion, bribery, and corruption in the southern tier nations equally baffling....

No Joke, this is a quote from a facebook arguement I am in

I will support Zack's decision to enter into the dangerously racist field of biology, despite the fact that reason and logic certainly have no place in the future socialist empire of equality and freedom which we will fight for and inherit, despite our low-birthrate and poor schooling. We will survive!
