Greetinx from Athens - Ill be back soon.....

Thats exactly the problem - his email is certainly @telusplanet... but he didnt check that. When he emailed me his showed outgoing mail address was @telus.net and thats not valid.

I dont have any time to check my mailbox from here, but I hope he worked things out by now.

Mac an Ghiolla has asked for a short extent on Turn#01.

Because its the first turn I have granted it, all others orders have been received fine btw.

Players plz watch out to use the exact number of digits when submitting orders, eg.

[xxx] means you MUST use 3 digits, like [012] and not just [12]

Depending on Macs orders I will run the turn within a day. I have also three weeks of holidays without much to do coming up, so the next turns will be processed faster....

Got all orders now- turn will be out asap.

Spampal had filtered the orders as spam lol

Trewqh, the Gods of WoK certainly smile on your armies. How do you do it?

Taking the first neutral on turn 1 without losses is not a rare event I think. You took yours with a loss of 1 army. That would be it if you knew where to stop.

Anyhow my situation looks much better now.

You are between myself and Donut, who now can finally attack you. Griffon has his armies split all over his territory, so maybe he'll want to renegotiate. And none of you knows what I have in 54. While it's not hard to predict I feel secure now.

To answer your question:
Look up at Egbert's post and learn that it weren't gods who helped me.

14% chance with no loss. Not too unlikely but you got under average losses when we fought too and I like to whine!

How does this look?
#ID NAME POP WOK AIM ARM LEVEL DEF MI SP
=======================================
54 Orange 0 0 +DEF 41 1.101 0.6 0 0
=======================================

I figure it'll do for planning next turn

korexus.

PS, if anyone cares and I haven't told them yet. Here's trewqh's other province.

#ID NAME POP WOK AIM ARM LEVEL DEF MI SP
======================================
55 Liberty 0 77 +MIS 0 1.000 1.6 0 5
======================================

Nobody but me and Donut (oh, and Al maybe) knows for sure because this province wasn't spied on. But I also said that it wasn't hard to predict. korexus tried. It won't cause any problems to me if I tell that he was close

but not 100% right korexus

Next turn IS going to be interesting. Did you sign any naps that will help you out of this situation korexus?

I still feel safe

'Under average losses'

You do like whine

But are you aware that your situation also isn't very difficult to figure out. We know that your home province looks like that:

Code: Select all

#ID     NAME     POP   WOK  AIM  ARM LEVEL DEF   MI   SP 
===========================================================
10   Shipyards    28    74 +MIS   12 1.000 1.6    0    5 
===========================================================

According to my calculations in your second province you either have 6 1.000 lev armies or 12 workers with no protection. It's also possible that you have 24 POP there instead of those 6 armies if you planned to make to more POP>ARM transformations in 54 or somwhere else. And I believe that is the case.

Don't even bother to plan for next turn. I go before you

Yours sincerely,
trewqh

Trewqh asked for a 24-hour extension of the deadline, and I granted it.

Try not to make that every turn folx....

Seeing as everyone is posting spy info i thought why the hell shouldn't I.

#ID NAME POP WOK AIM ARM LEVEL DEF MI SP
===============================================
4 Edison 99 125 +MIS 98 9.999 9.6 278 0
6 Clay Pit 234 125 +MIS 46 9.999 9.6 56 0
9 Bulls Head 115 125 +TEC 124 9.999 9.6 0 0
60 Piscataway 200 125 +LEV 68 9.999 9.6 0 64

Oops is that my info by any chance????? Ah crap

trewqh says he feels safe then asks for an extension. Jeez, if I'm that dead how hard can it be?

Don't worry trewqh, from the start I wasn't looking to win this game (well after seeing turn 0) I just plan to have fun going down and see who I can drag into the nose dive with me...

I have just returned home. Today I have spent over 10 hours on the train just to spend 2.5h in a different city. The reason that I needed the extension was that I was right to assume that after such a trip I will have no willingness to do my turn. Or maybe it's already past the deadline? Anyway the extension helped Donut do some more diplomacy and that is good. I still have 11 unread e-mails but I don't think I wish (or am able) to get involved by them today.

Apologises to anyone concerned for keeping you all waiting.

10 hrs on a train,hmmm......... with other people...........

I spend 9 in a car BY MYSELF. If that's not bad enough, I'm doing it while driving through Iowa and eventually across Wisconsin. For those of you from this area you know that it is a very boring, and long drive.

It'll make a guy go nuts, trust me.

All in all, long trips do suck, and I had to make one this weekend as well. Thus the reason I needed more time to diplomitate.

Donut

And we thought you needed more time for Donuts....

There's always time for everyones favorite breakfast pastry.

Donut,
Iowa and Wisconsin PALE in comparison to the salt flats in Utah.

Kansas isn't much better for scenery.

Post by **Donut** » Tue Jul 15, 2003 3:23 am

Hmmm.......,

Kansas I can see but Utah really? The salt flats aren't for an entire state though are they.
