Ok, Raw filled the last spot in the group. I'll send out the initial turn report soon and make the first deadline next Saturday. If anyone has a problem just e-mail me.

Turns out, Page updated. Please inform me of any errors.

I already found one, the date for the deadline is 01/10/04, not 01/10/03. This happens to me every year.

Hate to say it, but CP is our first rating victim....

Well, WHO ELSE could it have been ?

(Just kiddin' man !)

And DOW takes the lead in rating with a clean RIP hehehehe....

GM Josh, please note on the Group page:
- CP rating: -0.150 (-0.120 for 10th place and -0.030 for the RIP)
- CP RIP balance: -1

- Massielita rating: +0.030 (for the RIP)
- Massie's RIP balance: +1

Thats it ! Not too much hard work for the GM as I see it.

Ratings, like VPs, will be updated when the game ends. Anything else would make the record keeper crazy.

Josh, the group page either has to indicate that Massie has 1 RIP to his credit OR that CP was RIPed by Massie. Either way works, since this is all the record keeper needs to know at the end of the game.

Just write "-0.150 / -1" and "+0.030 / +1" in the ratings column - that will do.

Ok, will do. To tell the truth I lost track of the scoring system. I thought there were way too many numbers floating around and WOK is my retreat from numbers

Page should be updated soon. Are those numbers final ( the rating scoring numbers)?

AAAHHHHHHH... I was hoping for a flawless game. There goes that idea. POP bug again. Re-run will be out tomorrow. Any ideas as to why it happened?

Upon further review, I'm confused... I'll have to re-run Turn 2 now because the data file for turn 3 is corrupt, right? I don't want to really mess things up now. Any advice?

I have an idea, fix the bug thing and restart the game since we are only a couple of turns into it.

I'm open to whatever is decided. It is up to the players.

*gnarl*

Send me the files in concern and Ill try to check them. MAKE SURE to use all cautious measures when running a Turn:
- start the Manager from scratch
- load old file, run the Turn, CHECK THE POP VALUES, quit the manager
- make sure you have the "." (point) set as separator for values

Im really looking to get rid of that crap "bug". Again, I was NOT able to reproduce it, no matter how many times I tried to do dummy Turns.

Here is how GMs could help. Copy a "good" Turn data file and make a new Group with it (ie. Group#02). Then run the Turn with that new Group and check the POP values. Try this a few times, with a few different settings. Try to help me find out what causes the POP values to be reset to their original values (thats what happened, right ?)
Best would be to have TWO scenarios: one WITH the "bug", the other WITHOUT - both from the same original data. That could help.

I am really looking to get rid of this once and for good. HELP ME.

Reminds me to ask Nesty again about his Group. Whats up with that ? I think I still have the files you sent, so whats up with that re-run ?

Ok, the turns are out and the page is updated with the exception of the map. I can't get it to upload. I don't know if it's my connection or the webpage site. I'll keep working on it though.

Turn 04 has been run. TR's out. I'm working on updating the page but it is really being a pain in the

I'll have it up as soon as I can.

Turn 05 run. Hopefully the webpage won't be such a pain this time. I'm considering moving my page. Any suggestions?

How about a kaomaris Subdomain? I'm having no problems with mine and it helps Al out a bit too.

(Somehow I beat Al to mentioning this. He must be slowing down...)

Hey all, I'd like for those interested to note that I have moved all of my pages to my school homepage. I meant to start out that way but I never figured out how to do it. All it took was to ask someone... go figure.

My home page is at http://people.msoe.edu/~jorgensj/
and the Group #01 at http://people.msoe.edu/~jorgensj/group1.html

I've updated the kaobase with the new pages. If any knows if theres another place where I have my page linked, please let me know.

GM Josh

P.S. Sorry Al, maybe after this summer I'll be able to buy the space from you

Post by **gm_al** » Mon Feb 09, 2004 1:31 am

I simply didnt reply with the "obvious" answer to have some WOK subdomain because I know Donut doesnt have the money to use it for that.

So you didnt beat me, Kory.
