    Absolutely!

    And so, the Polish-Azurite Potato strain was crossbred, to provide the tastiest pierogie possible.

    Also, some foolish pilgrims desire a settlement on the western edge of this desert we find ourselves in. Do you have any designs on this land?

    How far West are we talking? There are certain parts of the desert which we have determined ought to be joined into our domain.

    After long conferring and discussion, we have decided that it is amenable to our interests as well. Let us share this vast desert, where the sun rises on the glories of Poland and sets upon the cerulean radiance of Azure City. There are bountiful riches for all!

    OOC: Heh, I just want a REAL desert city so I can spread my faith. I found a location with acceptable tiles, including GOLD. Which seems to be abundant in this desert anyway. By the way, once you research writing, can we get an embassy swap? Also: Orcus is to my south.

    OOC: Thanks for the tip. Just to make sure--west coast, left side of the screen, right? Because I also have an eye on a gold spot. But it's probably not the same one.

    OOC: Yup! West coast. I think I caught a glimpse of your gold last turn, near a river. I'm not that interested in going east, Orcus has claimed everything to his near southeast, and I have a pretty good inland city location to my south. Most of the desert is probably going to be yours, but due to the Pantheon I picked, I would like at least one desert city. Really, I took the pantheon to stick it to Snark, who probably spawned desert. I sense me and her (I'm assuming Snark is female) will be having a bit of a confrontation later.
    Oh, and as a sign of good faith, the Grand Mesa is yours.

    Yay? Except not really, Carpe already claimed it.

    Hey. So, I have no idea if it's my turn or not. I can't access GMR, so I can't download it if you guys are waiting on me. Hopefully I don't get skipped.

    Since GMR is down, I'm more then willing to revert as many times as needed.

    From the GMR facebook page, emphasis mine:
    "As many of you have noticed GMR is completely down! Our web server has experienced a rare double-disk failure and we'll need to rebuild everything from scratch. We do have off-site backups of the database and save files that we'll be restoring, unfortunately they're almost two months old. We're terribly sorry for the inconvenience and how much this will set your games back!

    We're working hard getting everything back up and hope to have things restored by tonight or tomorrow. Thank you all for your patience!"

    So... who's got the most recent save, then? I have a copy dating from November 3rd, which means we'd still lose a fair number of turns, but it's better than 2 months. (I don't think we'd even started two months ago.)

    Well, I can't seem to get to the site readily. Wait, no. It's just loading painfully slow. Hmmmm. I wonder if there's any way to set the game back up and then just resubmit the most recent save.

    From having tried to restart Game 9, I think we can use the previous savegame to start a new GMR game but the host needs to start on their last turn, as GMR won't let them change civs.

    That's what we're doing with Game 9, but we haven't started it yet so I can't guarantee it will work. Last I checked (yesterday) the GMR forums didn't have any solid advice on restarting games less than 2 months old, but there might be more data out there by now.

    I think... we're doing a Scenario for Game 9, so there was a fixed turn order anyway, but I suspect that it pulls the turn order from the save file, and we just have to make sure everyone's the proper Civ before booting up the game.

    If it doesn't seem to work, we might try loading the new game on GMR as if we were doing a Scenario game and it might have the proper turn order built in also?

    Okay. Invite links.



    I think we'll have to go with my save though.

    As it is. Can people post so that I know what turn order to arrange them in.

    For instance. I know after me is Gaad, and then I'm pretty sure it's Orcus.

    Could this be the turn order. Gadd posted this on the second page, but didn't actually state it was a turn order.

    GAAD: GAAD is playing "Portugal"
    OrcusMcP: Orcus is playing Egypt
