I know that rollbacks are bad but I think that we can make an exception here, no?

I just made the 8th turn.

When all players were skipped I think then it is okay, but when some had the chance to make something and others not, this would not be fair.

Rolling back. Prepare to receive turn 7. Sorry folks but some people acted during turn 7 (myself included) and others couldn't which just ain't fair.

Turn rolled back. Please read the following warning text from the Llamaserver to make sure we don't have any snags progressing from here. One thing to note is IF YOU WERE ABLE TO SUBMIT YOUR TURN 7 THEN YOU DON'T HAVE TO SUBMIT IT AGAIN, EVEN THOUGH THE GAME'S PAGE SAYS "Waiting for 2h file". THIS IS NOT THE CASE, THE GAME HAS YOUR 2H FILE. Please read below for more details.

A further reason is a difficulty with game file confusion. Imagine turn 10 has just come out, and someone starts to play the turn. Then the game is rolled back to turn 9, and processed again to make a new turn 10. Unless players delete the 2h file they produced from the original turn 10, Dominions will not know to ignore it and may get seriously confused. This can cause a lot of madness, e.g. soldiers becoming commanders and gaining magic paths, and so on. So if you do do a rollback, make sure to remind players to delete their 2h files.

Having said that, there are situations where rollbacks are called for, which is why I've included the option here.

Read this next bit carefully. I seem to be having difficulties explaining it coherently:

Note that once the game is rolled back, it will appear that the game is waiting for 2h files from all players. However, the 2h files from last time the turn was played will in fact be there, and will be used if the game hosts without them being overwritten. This can be useful; often, a game is rehosted in order for only one or two players to retake their turns, while everyone else is expected to make no changes. The game admin can therefore wait till just those players have submitted, and then force hosting. None of the other players will stale (assuming they actually submitted a 2h file last time the turn was played).

Therefore, if you did get to play your original turn 7 (like I did), let me know. You don't have to resubmit your turn 7 if you don't want to. Once everyone else has submitted I'll force the game to host. Thanks.

Shinuyama welcomes it's Jotunheim neighbors.

The lands to the north and west are peaceful, and would suit your kind well. You would not like the south-east very much...It smells like a horde of Bakemono have defiled a bunch of corpses there.

Proposing an NAP(3). Failure to accept this proposal will not result in aggression between our two nations, unless such a course is chosen by Jotunheim.

Think it over.

Atlantis extends an offer of trade to all land nations. We atlantians reside beneath the ocean and have little interest in going up on land, except to claim those provinces adjacent to our capital. As such, the trade, war and treaties between the dry nations is something we have paid little attention to. We realize, however, that the great wealth of the seas and the great bounty of the land need not be kept separate.

We would happily trade gems or gold for the crafting of a few minor items that lie outside our magical purview. Please PM us if you are interested in discussing the details.

I have temporarily turned off Quickhost because I've received a request that someone needs to make some revisions to their turn but won't be able to for a few more hours. Since only 1 nation remains to turn in their turn, the turn might automatically host before that happens so I have agreed to turn it off for the time.

Once this is over I'll turn quickhost back on.

Alright babebibobu, I'll delay hosting as soon as you need it; just PM me when you're going to be away. Everyone has been doing a real good job of getting in their turns quickly so I won't delay things until I hear from you because 1 or 2 more turns could come in between now and this weekend.

Just a heads up to everyone that once turn 17 goes out I am delaying hosting until Monday to accommodate two players being unable to reliably play over the weekend. Unless I hear for the need for further changes, everything will return to the normal schedule after Monday.

This is shaping up to be an exiting game. I'll just have to be patient over the weekend, as I am really looking forward to see how the next few turns play out.
