So we're waiting on Morgoth while he canoes around Indonesia because he didn't leave a provisional even in the first round...? (Can we safely assume his next action would be to move infantry to Mellon/Zohbat?)

I think we can assume that if not the detail, not much else he can do.

I didnt know what secondaries I could play, but I also thought id have access to 3G at least. Stupid I guess

You have 6tg as far as I can see.

I have done my provisional it's sat in my PM's.

@tapper everyone had posted after I asked for a counter proposal so assumed no one wanter it. D'rek got first dibs but didn't want it. Gnaw's PN may be one use but that could really come in handy when I need it. If you want my racial why don't you negotiate with Gnaw?

I just noticed the original conversation surrounding the PN started in the sign-up thread, so that initial 1h15 mark I gave between offer and acceptance is not entirely true, it just spread over multiple threads.
Blend remarked earlier he was caught a bit by surprise by all the haggling over hexes and I feel the last few players to pick stuff should not have the added disadvantage of deals already being made before it is their turn to make their selection.
Not blaming the mod here, just offering the suggestion that in future games I would really like negotiation to be opened and closed by the mod, like D'rek (and I assume Blend) do with the status phase.
An added suggestion would be to have some sort of organisation of how we can track offers and deals in the Chatty thread - maybe a post per race on the opening page?

That's a good idea on both accounts, this game was different with the map placement. It was a bit disjointed as the map creation felt like the game start, and is why I suggested adding the dialog to the chatty thread and just continuing from there. May Blend can open up a Trade Post at the beginning of Chatty Thread that states current offers being made?

I assumed he meant mobile network but who knows.

Leadership has been played and Warfare since your last turn.

Ah that makes much more sense. So Tapper is up now?

[Tattersail_]

Tapper's turn yes

[Morgoth]

Yeah, we have wifi at the Villa, but I can’t get much mobile data. I’m spoiled by my consrant access to 4G back home.

[Morgoth]

Bali is amazing by the way! I can’t wait to see more of the country 😁

[Tapper]

ItWaesBliss now.

[Morgoth]

Wait, what happened to mine and Gnaws trade?

Gnaw still has a 3:3 trade with you in his order?

[Morgoth]

Ah, I was browsing this thread and got confused

[Khellendros]

Tapper, when we connect do you still want to do a trade? 2:2?

[Itwæs Nom]

Someone please check if my turn is correct

@Morgoth tech secondary up for grabs

Khell's turn now

Looks good. I'd add STRATEGIC: play TECHNOLOGY for clarification, but it is correct as far as I can see .

You should add Cruiser II to your technology list, as well.

Personally, I'm not a fan of the "complete trade with ____" notations, as it adds a bunch of confusion to the timing of trades (did the C/TGs transfer on gnaw's turn or yours? Were they 'in transit' between your turns? If someone stole forced you to reduce your TGs by half in-between your and Gnaw's/Khell's turns, how much would you decrease it by if the transfer is non-instant?) but that's just my opinion and others disagree.

Well I thought the commodities only become tgs by the start of my turn like I think you yourself said sometime earlier but I can put it away if you guys don't do it this way, don't really have that much time to look up how exactly should everything be listed in my game posts as I'm using all of it to figure out the technicalities(yeah yeah not a word) of the game mechanics so please point out any inconsistencies as it allows me to learn them much faster this way than looking it all up
