[TECH] Pitboss 29 IT and Tech Issues Thread

[Krill]

Dunno if you want me to give a decision but I have one that I think is reasonably fair. Just reload to before Jowy accepttled the offer and pause please.

[Tsargon]

I would definitely vote for a reload, if only for the sake of courtesy

[Dreylin]

Yep, let's just get the reload done and move on.

[Krill]

The solution me and Xenu came up with was that after the reload, Jowy logs in, declines the offer and then retreats his forward warrior back to his culture on a beeline before he can use it in any other fashion. No other units are affected.

Everyone else is punished by having me as the game admin and mocking you for stupid rules.

[wetbandit]

Yeah, we voted against Arcane Signalling. I even remember correcting the top section but it looks like we missed the the bottom bit.

Diplo rules:

You will be free to offer whatever sort of trade possible in the trade window you want, whether you mean for it to be real or symbolic is your prerogative. However, you accept the consequences if the other player accepts something you meant as symbolic. Since deciding what counts as a 'real' trade or not is a very fuzzy area to judge, banning unit trades (not in the window anyways) and city trades (now impossible to select into a trade offer) eliminates some of the most swingy options. Players can attempt to collude with the remaining options, again at their own risk of trades actually going through.

Let's have Xenu remove that section so there's no confusion in the future.

We also voted against city trades but it looks like that isn't noted in the first post either. Let's replace

City trades are now disabled by the mod (city names still visible).

by

You may not trade cities with other players.

I guess the rules weren't clear enough on either part. Krill can lampoon us for not checking our settings.

I agree that these changes should be made to make this crystal clear.

[spacetyrantxenu]

I updated the first post with these changes. Reload coming a bit later when I'm at my computer.

[spacetyrantxenu]

OK, the reload has been done. Jowy will need to replay, following Krill's ruling above now that Krill is your appointed game administrator. I'd suggest not invoking him any more often than necessary since we all know he delights in the suffering of others.

Edit: Also, updated the settings post again because that's the place from which all game authority derives, right?

Admin: KRILL

[Commodore]

Heh. -10 points to Slytherin for internal brawling.

[Dreylin]

Paused.

Thanks xenu and welcome Krill!

[GermanJoey]

Thanks for the reload and thanks for the decision. (set my blocker for only 6 hours, fwiw)

Apologies to everybody for the drama.
