The real power lies with Ramk and partially with me, who can update the mod. But if that is a problem, we have a much bigger issue at hand. smile

I wish PBSPY admins could restart the actual server when that gets knocked out... but otherwise im fine not having ANY additional powers lol
"Superdeath seems to have acquired a rep for aggression somehow. [Image: noidea.gif] In this game that's going to help us because he's going to go to the negotiating table with twitchy eyes and slightly too wide a grin and terrify the neighbors into favorable border agreements, one-sided tech deals and staggered NAPs."

FYI, I'll finish my turn today. The new information from turn 1 invalidated most of my previous planning, I should be back to normal once the advanced start is done.

This first turn is like 50 turns in a normal game, so take all the time you need

Some weeks ago an user wrote me he is unhappy with superdeath choice, especially when he also participates in the game.
I do not intend to judge about details of his subjective/personal arguments or publish the name of the user (of course he could do this himself), but this leads to some kind of a dilemma for me.

To resolve the problem I decided to change my default approach and do not add any user directly as game admin.
My call to the participants of this game: Please discuss who should be selected as admin send me a PM after.

As overview… every game admin as access to following options on PBSpy:
• Toggle pause
• Save and load game files
• Change timer of current round
• Change timer of next rounds
• End whole turn
• End turn of player
• Change password of player
• Set color set of players
• Kick player (set to AI)
• Send chat messages
• Set/Read MotD (Mesage of the day. Displayed after login)
• Deleting all ingame signs

Options, which an game admin can not do (but I):
• Reading chat messages
• Reading signs
• Changing the 'game password'. (without this you can not load saves locally).
• Changing ingame stuff like player gold.
• Direct access to the game over python command line.

I think we still need to finalize our admin decission and send Ramk PM, right?

I missed that we need to PM Ramk. I think it's me, Cornflakes and Superdeath, right?
