I played the last saved I received ages back. I can't remember who's after me.

Yell0w is after you, so he has the save then.

So... another two weeks with no turn. Doesn't look like Yell0w has even visited the site in the past two weeks.

Maybe we should talk again about finding a replacement?

HK, the last save you had was T105 (I sent it on 9th of March), right?

Yeah, it's almost been 2 weeks from that already. If we want to finish the game during this year a replacement is probably required. I wonder if there's any unspoiled players - but maybe it might not matter that much, even if a player is spoiled, as there hasn't been that much of updating in the threads here.

I haven't checked the other threads in awhile but I am spoiled. If you all don't care, then I can play.

What about Yellow retiring as an AI?

Hmm, that's an option - but it certainly could/would boost some of the players.

I'm fine letting Kragroth take over.

Speaking only for myself: I'm having fun with this game (when it's running) and think it's just getting to the interesting stage, so I'd like to see it play out.

Yell0w is in a strong position but he's also at war with multiple other players who are possibly in stronger positions (me and also Aurorarcher IIRC). So depending on your predilictions it might either be really fun or really not fun to jump into the game (note that the scoreboard probably underestimates Yell0w's position a tad, because he hasn't yet used his first Golden Age).

Turning Yell0w into an AI would make him a pushover which I think would strongly unbalance the game (in my favor).
For my part, I don't really mind if someone spoiled takes over; if you think you'd have fun with it, Kragroth, it would be great to have you. Also, if it's okay with the other players (I know this is a no-diplo game), I'll offer a one-sided ceasefire: I won't initiate any hostile actions until you've had a chance to get your bearings (say 10 turns?), during which you can do whatever you think is to your best advantage (though I'll defend myself if attacked).

To orient you, here are a few details about the Calabim-Khazad conflict (spoilers for other players):
My war with Yell0w started when he was about to found a city next to my borders. I declared war and killed a few units, eventually razing that city. Since then there have been a few intermittent skirmishes but no substantial action on either side. Possibly it could heat up soon; I've noticed him massing troops near our other border, and I've recently seized control of an island from which I could launch amphibious assaults.

Yeah, that's true - Yell0w's position towards other players vary a little, like you said he's in war with me and you. Turning him into an AI should definitely be our last option as it's also the worst choice we have here.

Happy with anyone taking over.

Not happy with any diplo deals being made, though. I understand why, but still strongly disagree that such a concept should've been voiced, in the first part, given the ramifications, and I definitely don't want it being acted on.. If he needs time to orient himself, then I'm more than happy to send previous saves in.

What exactly do you mean by this, Q? That if Kragroth joins the game, you want me to immediately attempt to invade him?
