I suspect it's going to be the look on many a player's faces when they see the map and read the turns...Pantheon: The Third Age - Rules and Comments Thread

Speaking of which, if anyone ever finds Raev, the sword Adomorn left behind, let me know. I'd love to read about it.Menolly wrote:*mumbles to self*

Why am I not surprised.Calais wrote:I would have it known to the Pantheon that I have decided to remove myself from the Eclipse Alliance. The Alliance has been of no benefit to me nor has my presence been of benefit to it. This is no reflection on the members of the Alliance it is just that Mother Earth must follow her own path.
The House of Bhakti has beckoned to me and my return to it is immediate. My father's LOVE cannot be purged and I now embrace it wholeheartedly. Calais is a Bhakti-Jovian, pure and simple.
Brother Zephyr,I can now openly proclaim our alliance as I weary of this sham mantle of darkness. May the grace of our parents bring me swiftly back into the wealth of love of my family.
To be honest, I have been expecting this for a long time; hence why Nor Yekith followed through with his resurrection plan, and why I kept 90% of my plans in pms. Nice try, Calais

I would like to state something, although this may sound harsh... I think I already mentioned it once, though, so I'll just clarify this in no uncertain terms.
If a player is no longer interested or motivated in playing (misses deadlines, or the player's turns look cobbled up together at the last minute, containing perhaps only one or two sentences and not even addressing the turn results, or the player is annoyed with KW and wants to leave the board, or whatever), I would greatly appreciate it if that player were upfront about it and either asked to be put on hiatus, or to be removed from the game (such as Montresor and Damelon have done). To remain in the game even if a player isn't interested anymore is not fair to the other players (I spend time on processing that player's turn, thus extending total processing time; other players might waste DRPs in fruitless alliances or fights against that player's followers, and so on).
So from now on, unless a player notifies me beforehand that problems in real life restrict their ability to play and might cause them to miss a deadline or two (or ask me to put them on hiatus), I'm going to give players who miss deadlines by more than a couple of days a three-strike rule. If you miss turn deadlines twice in a row by more than a couple of days, or if it looks to me like your turn submittals was just written as an afterthought or because you are not interested in it, you'll get a warning in your PM box. If, after you got a warning, you miss yet another deadline or your turn still looks shallow, and you haven't given me a good explanation as to why that is the case, I'll remove you from the game. This may seem harsh to some, but as far as I'm concerned, players who are committed to the game and who do put thought into their actions have precedence over those who are uninterested.

And I knew that you knew.Why am I not surprised. To be honest, I have been expecting this for a long time; hence why Nor Yekith followed through with his resurrection plan, and why I kept 90% of my plans in pms.
I knew I wasn't trusted in that alliance from the beginning so even though I would have been supportive and helped in all the plans (other than destroying Zeph, heh), no one trusted me. While I was honestly trying to play an evil deity, I just wasn't good at it and I hated my character. After several weeks of thinking about it and some discussion with Xar about where my character was going, I decided to change.
Nope, just faulty game playing on my part.Nice try, Calais
I'm not a devious person. Its just not my nature.The King has one more move.

I'll get my revenge in Vampire, caamora. But can I say one thing, you will be missed from the Eclipse Alliance. I did enjoy your company there, if Nor Yekith didn't.
But can I ask one favour? Allow Silister Oord to return to Nyitha. I know the nature of the attack on Nor Yekith's lands, and I hope that if the lord of mutation survives, I can wrap up his story and Silister's in a turn or two.

Thanks. Just know that I was good to my word, though. What few secrets were there were kept as secrets.I'll get my revenge in Vampire, caamora. But can I say one thing, you will be missed from the Eclipse Alliance. I did enjoy your company there, if Nor Yekith didn't.
Sure.But can I ask one favour? Allow Silister Oord to return to Nyitha. I know the nature of the attack on Nor Yekith's lands, and I hope that if the lord of mutation survives, I can wrap up his story and Silister's in a turn or two.
Many waters cannot quench love, neither can floods drown it. There is no fear in love; for perfect love cast out fear.

Four-mouthed. Don't accuse Nor Yekith of having arms - that's the worst insult you can give him.Fist and Faith wrote:Hey! It just occurred to me... Forewarned is forearmed, eh? And in the case of the God of Mutation, Four-armed.Loremaster wrote:I know the nature of the attack on Nor Yekith's lands
Edit: His Yekiths have four mandibles, but that doesn't count.
