What's the deal with the game, Seth? I'm getting full on cheese preparing for this one. I don't want to go lactose intolerant.

Beware!

GM Seth holds the record for the highest average days between turns.

Cheers,
Raw

I most certainly do Raw, I most certainly do...

Sorry folks had some problems getting the files off of my old computer and getting the INI to work properly on the new one. Will be up and running shortly....

Hey, did you know that Alpha Centauri is only 4 Seth-times from Earth?

Shouldn't that be light-Seth-times? - the distance light can travel in one Seth-time?

-k.

Sorry everyone that's two maths posts in 5 minutes. The work must be getting to me... :?

LOL

Or maybe 4 times the distance Seth can travel before it gets dark? Wait, no. That would make him very fast. Hm 4 times the amount of cheese needed for Seth to get to the park. No. The light needed to burn up the gas produced by Seth when he cuts the cheese...times four? Ehhh... the light type of cheese named Seth Four and the time it takes to eat it....squared. Darn, I got myself confused here. :)

SETH = Seemingly Endless Time Heap

A SETH is defined as the number of season changes between two Turns in a GM Seth game.

So a "SETH 4" is one year in our terms. :P

You could have a SETH 1 or even a SETH 0 (!!) between two Turns, if you are lucky.... :o

All in good humor gentlemen, TR's will be out within the hour so by 9pm my time, I updated the website if you all want to check it out.

All TR's are out, everyone if you got duplicates, use the later of the two.

There is also a leaderboard at the bottom of the page...... I think I might be wicked and start posting some information there, as to who has the most spells, armies, creatures, or then again, I might be lying..... :twisted:

Seth, that background is very pretty and all. But even here with my stupidly fast University connection it's taking half a minute to load. I have a horrible feeling that when I go back home - to my meagre 56k modem It'll take me more time to load the page than for you to run a turn!! :wink:

Do you think you could change the background, or in some other way just make the page quicker to download?

Cheers,

korexus.

gee i suppose, that background is very similar to what we've got here in Wisconsin, at least up nord. When we're all at our cottages.... but i guess...

Oh and one other thing. Are the provinces with the little shrubs in (for example province 54) swamps or tundra?

Please say tundra, please say tundra, please say tundra!

Korexus,
Do some homework, check a map, tell me if you find any tundra or deserts in Wisconsin and you'll have your answer.

I don't suppose there is any chance of me seeing a POP file for this map, is there? I don't recall seeing a link anywhere and I don't recall being told that the POP was going to be a big secret either, so I thought I would ask.
