'if you fight to the end, you get to see everyone's graphs, even if they are disabled.'?

Pretty sure it isn't the case anymore, might be wrong. Ask Malakal.

I'm sure that whoever wins D10 will be kind enough to cast Eyes of God closer to the endgame. Matalarata

I can see them.

You'll receive my death basket and blessing.

Last turn shows the graphs and sites for everyone.

Post them, we are all fucked in any case. Pooost theeeeem

Also, Day... Catholic? wut am I missing here

Aren't ya LatAm or something? My .txt is terrible in these days, and you never got in the Great Dominions List.

Only believes in the Almighty Dollar, you know this. We abandoned religion long ago, except as a tool to keep the poors in line.

That's a textbook description of the Lutheran Scourge, following Wealth!


I'll add some hours, as most of the Usual Suspects have still to submit and I have an impromptu tabletop session this evening to manage.

Yeah, sorry. I thought you meant that I ACTUALLY was a Catholic. I'm LatAm all right. And I'll someday make that "Great Dominions list", just you wait... unless... hold it, do you actually need to be good at the game to be there?

No, it means you do something that makes me consider branding you in my own personal meta as trustworthy/not trustworthy.

Skills are not needed. Lack of insanity and good diplo skills instead are.

 

[Matalarata]

Also, said .txt tend to wildly fluctuate between games. True Dominons masters are schizophrenic and able to multi-task between their various personalities. This makes updating one's .txt and thread management in general a game within the game. A meta-metagame, if you want.

Edit:

tabletop session

Tell us more...

 

[Dreaad]

I should probably start keeping notes, I don't even know what turns I sign my NAP's, just patiently wait for my allies to attack me

Thanx. Actually had a blackout in my parts yesterday. Waited about an hour for electricity to come back, then got angry and show'd them how real men do blackouts.

 

[Matalarata]

how real men do blackouts

?

 

[Dayyālu]

sqeecoo requested an extension.

Granted.

Tell us more...

Nothing fancy. D&D Goblin slaughter.

I'm getting old, though. The DM had green hair and was male, so I could not stop staring. I swear, kids these days....

At least you got a group going. I was playing on a friend's snorefest Dragonlance campaign and that kinda fizzled out (not a great loss, but I miss it anyways) and my own homebrew 3.5 original world-let's-pull-all-the-stops campaign is... on hiatus, indefinitely. RL concerns from everybody and their warg.

 

[Matalarata]

Was he cosplaying as one of the goblins? Not even gaming girls in my circle of acquaintances would tint their hair green, you must be starved for some good pnp to comply...
Fortunately, when I DM, I'm the youngest one at my table, at least half my players have childrens.


This means in 5 years or so one of them will come back home while we're playing and greet us sporting some flashy hair color .

 

[Grimwulf]

You were looking for me, Igarak? This better be important. I have battle preparations to make.

Look at yourself, dear General. Signs of exhaustion, stress... frustration even?

Recent news from Mictlan keep most of us on edge. I'll be fine.

You absolutely must have a cup of armillaria tea with me.

What "recent news" did I miss?

Hearing an unfamiliar voice behind his back, Tomaso del Monferrada leaped to the opposite side of the tent, drawing his sword at the same time. Only now did he notice a demonic woman standing in the shadows, smiling and observing.

Do you see what I meant, dear General? Lately you've become unforgivably anxious for a man of your pedigree. Take a seat and drink some tea - it will help you restore composure.

I am so sorry, General Tomaso. Startling you wasn't my intention.

Who are you, and what is your business here?

My name is... inconvinient in your language. Mortals call me Shodan.

Shodan? The one who tried provoking a war with Pangaea a year ago? The one who assassinated the white minotaur?

A simple misunderstanding, I assure you. Sometimes lovers are doing strage things to each other.

Talking about the past is such a waste of precious time. Why don't we focus on situation at hand?

I would like to hear the recent news you've mentioned.

Well. Long story short, right before the war started, our diplomats managed to achieve certain agreements with Mictlan. The savages swore loyalty to Marignon, and were even offering military aid against Atlantis. Assuming that Marignon-Mictlan borders will no longer need military presence, we united the Demonic Legion with the Royal Fleet, delivering a painful blow to Atlantis. Our united army is about to capture a castle right next to their capital city.

There is nothing Atlantis can do to stop Ethanim and Buriol, if I may say so myself.

However, cursed frogs are storming our own castle in Tenera as we speak.

Not nearly as important strategically. Besides, Marignon has been doing much better at raiding than Atlantis coalition. We can afford some casualties.

Maybe. What really matters now is seizing the city of T'ien Ch'i. This will compensate any losses we might or might not suffer in the near future.

... Ahem.

Ah, yes. Dear General, please continue with news from Mictlan.

As soon as the Demonic Legion left Marignon-Mictlan borders, the savages betrayed us. All our agreements cancelled, all their promises forfeited. Now they've joined Atlantis.

Ahaha, my dear naive General. They were allied with Atlantis all along.

Scumbags. This is why I prefer centaurs and minotaurs to human beings. No offence, General Tomaso.

We still have an upper hand in this war. It won't take long before Atlantis crumbles. They have already lost one of their Golems, and wasted a small fotune of death gems for nothing.

The minds behind Atlantis military are making a lot of mistakes, don't they? Unfortunately for us, they have allies. Military skill is therefore irrelevant.

Bogarus-Atlantis alliance is a joke, and both of them know that. The only question is who will seize the opportunity first. If Bogarus quits the alliance before Atlantis surrenders to Marignon, they will remain intact. Maybe even take profit of Atlantean territory. But if Atlantis breaks before Bogarus sings a NAP with Marignon...

All those undefended cold lands of Bogarus will be ours to claim?

Exactly.

I hate to break it for you, dear General, but Atlantis representatives swore to their so-called "allies" that they will never surrender, no matter what.

*chuckles*

You don't need mind reading powers to know it's false.

Who knows? Mortals often act irrational. Rembember Arcoscephale? They preferred to suffer genocide rather than sign any kind of agreements with Marignon.

I trust the frog folk to be a tiny bit smarter than that. Well, enough of small talk. The Royal Army demands my attention. Final battle against the forces of T'ien Ch'i - the only loyal ally of Atlantis - will not be an easy one.

Please stay, dear General. Finish your tea while it's still hot. No need to rush anymore.

What do you mean?

There is a reason I've invited Shodan today. She made the upcoming battle a whole lot easier.

How so?

I've killed a god.

 

[KoolNoodles]

That's no god(see: Decline11).

Edit: The language on that event is hilarious, though....Naked Blue Dude.....

 

[hello friend]

Aw

 

[Dayyālu]

Being in no physical condition to play computer games now I'd like to request a 48 hours extension.

I hope to be again somewhat functional on the 5 of April.

 

[Matalarata]

I was about to ask 2 hours of extension...

Вот это поворот!

 

[Matalarata]

Why Tapatalk is spelled in roman alphabet? Are they actively trying to enforce the meme...?

 

[Dayyālu]

I ask for further 48 hours. If I get better tomorrow, I'll post here, but for the moment I find difficult to concentrate on active entertainment (even if I do not longer wish to scoop my eyes out with a spoon due to fever).

Thanks, guys. I am sorry.

This to further disprove the malignant rumors about C'tis and Burden of Time. Also my new D income is cracktackular!
