Bah, forget this, just going to move this to VG and not worry about the games influencing eac other.

[mith]

Oh, and bonus points to whoever can figure out what all the abbreviations are.

[Mikko]

This was a tough choice, but I've sent my preferences.

[Sparhawk]

My initial preferences are also in. Here is what I can figure out from the abbreviations:

blu - Blue
col - Cold
cya - Cyan
dar - Dark
eas - Eastern Edge
fal - False
gre - Green
hot - Hot
lef - Left
lig - Light
mag - Magenta
nec - Northeast Corner
nwc - Northwest Corner
pap - Paper
red - Red
rig - Right
roc - Rock
sci - Scissors
sec - Southeast Corner
swc - Southwest Corner
tru - True
wes - Western Edge
yel - Yellow

[mith]

In case it wasn't clear, the entire board is land, and there are only armies in this game. I've got the preferences, will update shortly (already un-symmetrical, yay ).

[dethwing]

*watches anxiously*

[mith]

Ok, updated, it's Spring 2001.

All those abbreviations are correct, Sparhawk. The rest may be a little tougher.

[Leonidas]

42: Douglas Adam's answer to Life, The Universe and Everything ?

[Sparhawk]

Orders sent. I will try to figure out some more abbreviations.

[mith]

Yes on 42, and that should help you figure out some other ones. 17 is just one of my favorite numbers, so don't waste your time there.

[mith]

Btw, if anyone feels like putting this into RP for me, that would be great. I may do it eventually, it's just a bit annoying to do on a laptop.

[Mikko]

Orders sent. The abbrevations around 17 are for the different user titles on this forum.

[mith]

Yep. Updated, it's now Fall.

(I brightened the colors, does that look better or worse?)

[Sparhawk]

Orders sent. I like the colors better with this change.

[The DogPack]

nice map mith.

[mith]

Thanks.

It's Winter, each of you has a build. Fall map with arrows will be up in a bit.

(ok, there now)

[CrystyB]

since i've just done Duo and Global, i'm in a row. I'll do yours too.

[mith]

Hm? Did you mean to post this in the other thread?

[CrystyB]

no i was answering reply #11 - and it's done. Except for the naming of a few provinces!

[mith]

Ah, cool, thanks. I'll update the images tomorrow, in that case.

[Sparhawk]

Orders sent. FYI: The link doesn't go to the most recent map, but I was able to find it by looking around a little.

[mith]

Sorry about that, must've forgot to send something, or sent to the wrong place. Everything should be there now, and it's Fall.

[Sparhawk]

Good move Mikko. I didn't guess you would do that set of moves.

My next turn is submitted.

[CrystyB]

(yeah mith you sent the images to the base directory and not to the images subdirectory)

[mith]

You each got two builds and only had two free spaces, so I went ahead and did those. Let me know if you only wanted to build one. It's Spring 2003.

[mith]

CB, the RP thing you linked is in rar, and I can't open those (and I can't get the stuff I need to open them, either). Can you use winzip?

[CrystyB]

[mith]

Nothing to do with being lazy, more to do with me having to come to an internet cafe to do stuff.

[mith]

*~bump~* Waiting on Mikko, no hurry.

[mith]

*~bump~*

[Mikko]

Oh dear, I had forgot about this game. It looks like Sparhawk is in a much better position, but since this is just a test game, I probably shouldn't resign too early.

mor-red, 17 S dae-ari, dae-ari, lig-mic, mia S lig-mic, mot-six

[mith]

Ok, I'll update tomorrow night when I get home (or tonight, if I'm on longer than I expect I will be).

[mith]

Game updated. Sparhawk was dislodged from ari, but only had one retreat available, so I went ahead and assumed he would rather do that than disband (let me know if you'd rather disband). It's fall.

[mith]

(oh, Spring map isn't available yet, will do it later)

[mith]

Hm. Messing around with your RP thing now that I'm home, CB. Looks nice (changed the colors to match my html, though). One problem I've noticed, and I'm not at all sure why it's doing this: When I get to Winter 2002, it's only letting Mikko build one, even though Dae is listed has a home SC, and is free. Any idea why it's doing that?

[CrystyB]

(hehe i issued orders for Winter 2000 and was wondering why it's not yet time for adjustments after the second move phase! )

The problem is due to the MAP file, which only lists spa, spb, mia and mib as HSCs. Each game you should make a different map reflecting the third HSC...

Mikko?
