02:09:55 Apr 24th 22 - Bigfield (Mr. Bigfield):

Seems like they want more targets. I'll go ahead and spam more cities if that will make them cast Arma. 


I could have gotten level 9 by today but you guys said on the 20th it was about to be cast so figure I'd finally do other science.

If they are board may as well entertain them.

I guess they prioritize whatever score keeping this is versus maintaining the player base. 


02:16:42 Apr 24th 22 - Schepp (Doctor Schepp The Grizzly):

20:07:36 Apr 23rd 22 Mr. Ducky:

Rather than everyone having a cry about arma not being casted yet, how about you have a person in your KD farm for lvl 9 magic? 


It's currently being prepped and will happen soon. Stop whinging y'all

We did have someone level 9. We were prevented from settling a second core by a farming kingdom. Then sciences were stolen. Can’t really expect the losing kingdoms to cast arma XD

Shall we all just stop playing while the guy preps arma? 


02:25:27 Apr 24th 22 - Konspyre (Captain Morgan):

can we all just stop caring? alba+ely are allied, so alba postponing arma is backstabbing ely. Ely saying they'll vote no beforehand if we don't have top ruler is also uncool.
Just arma asap? the era has been decided. Whoever wins, wins. Just end it asap.
Whoever postpones it for no reason will get pissed on next era anyway


02:29:07 Apr 24th 22 - Venus (Mr. Wizard):

It takes a few hours max to prep and cast arma.


Elysium once again, is not responsible for the delay.  I PMed Zeta 2 hours ago asking for the cast, since alba's caster from my LoS isn't prepping for it.

And yes Bigfield, we are bored as we hoped for Arma sooner than this.


02:46:07 Apr 24th 22 - Konspyre (Captain Morgan):

@Venus, Alba+Ely are allied, and Alba has said they're working on it. I didn't mean for my post to be particularly negative, eve if i mentioned the possible assumption on someone postponing it for reasons, i'm just explaining how I'd interpret it. The era will end itself, and whoever wins, wins.

Ely+Alba combo has won the era, and whoever takes the top spot deserves it.


02:48:56 Apr 24th 22 - Princess Shelob:

I would vote Wizard for era win.


03:10:31 Apr 24th 22 - Venus (Mr. Wizard):


Princess Shelob:

I would vote Wizard for era win.


I've won an era in the past and purposely gave up the top spot.  I wanted someone who's never won, to have the honor. 

I stopped any real training like 5 days ago.

At this point I just want a new era like everyone else.  :)


03:15:26 Apr 24th 22 - Konstant (The Ancient Hector Son of Troy):

Can we here from Caedus, why is arma not being cast? I thought endless said it would be soon.


05:16:33 Apr 24th 22 - Bigfield (Mr. Bigfield):


Konstant:

Can we here from Caedus, why is arma not being cast? I thought endless said it would be soon.


Probably because he is dead set on grabbing Malthaels 90k first.

Troopers
Army Info
Commander: Lord Caedus Kingdom Banner
Kingdom: Albatross
Size: Group of Armies (Around 500,000)
Race: Human

We have not attacked them and they have made 3 hostile attacks on us.

This ruler owns a bit more land than we do.

Attacking this army will not count as a hostile attack because it is currently attacking one of your cities.

No, because we are still playing while we wait for arma. Elysium know what’s holding it up and it’s nothing malicious. 

Cry harder pls 


10:13:18 Apr 24th 22 - Endless (Ms. Endless Pawsibilities):

big whatever to the whiners

He appears to have underestimated when he can cast it but considering he’s never done it before… cut him some slack



22:44:27 Apr 21st 22 - Joker (Mr. Snow):

ok i should be like 48 hours till im ready cause  let myself get attacked


11:14:18 Apr 24th 22 - Venomz (High Warlord Venomz):

So, what's Valhalla like these days?


13:59:17 Apr 24th 22 - Konspyre (Captain Morgan):

It's pretty competitive!

And big <3 to Snow for the work on Arma, apologies for the confusion!

Arma should only take a few hours to prep for.  You don't cast it with a large amount of MUs.


20:19:16 Apr 24th 22 - Lord Caedus:

Sorry guys, been some inactivity on our part and not intending to farm the win away from Elysium. <3


20:53:44 Apr 24th 22 - Konstant (The Ancient Hector Son of Troy):

While arma itself may take a few ticks to "prep for", it does take a lot of time to get enough MUs if you weren't ready for it.

Snow is a returned player from a while ago, so I don't hold this hold up against him or Alba at all.

We have msg'd Zeta as well to end the era, so whether Snow or Zeta, the era will be ended whenever they can at their quickest convenience.

I trust Caedus and Alba that there are no shenanigans going on.

Also, come on is D28 of the era; I know it sucks to wait a bit, but we're all waiting as there really isn't anything going on anymore.

-

Snow, do you need some resources/gold to get your arma going quicker? I would be happy to try and get something going for you =)


21:46:41 Apr 24th 22 - Endless (Ms. Endless Pawsibilities):

by shenanigans do you mean like this?


Mr. Wizard (4/19/2022 2:03:35 PM)GOODBAD
Is anyone in your kd able to knock him down a little? Like not out of top 6 but just down a couple rungs.

I'm not 100% sure yet but thinking we're going to make Ragnar the era winner since he's never won one (I have before). Haven't gotten to run it by Konstant yet.


21:54:14 Apr 24th 22 - Konspyre (Captain Morgan):

Wizard is wizard, let him be his funny little self :D
He means well deep down, dw


22:10:43 Apr 24th 22 - Venus (Mr. Wizard):

That was KoH, I was referring to.


And Newb ended up doing it. :)

I also already admitted I voluntarily gave up the era win.


22:32:21 Apr 24th 22 - Ragnarson (Mr. Ragnarson):

We were just trying to save some time. If ya’ll want me to wipe the map instead, I can do that too. 


22:42:55 Apr 24th 22 - Endless (Ms. Endless Pawsibilities):


next era announce ahead of time who the winner shall be so the rest of us can decide if we want to participate 


22:50:27 Apr 24th 22 - Venus (Mr. Thirty Seven):


Endless:


next era announce ahead of time who the winner shall be so the rest of us can decide if we want to participate 


No guarantee we'll win. :)  And, most kingdoms pump score and/or raze/release to manipulate the era winner when they've won an era.

I should've simply kept the #1 spot for myself instead of giving it up to a kingdom mate who 1) has never won, and 2) helped smash 2 kingdoms and their largest armies to get the win.  Next time I'm in that position I'll be selfish.


23:13:36 Apr 24th 22 - Ragnarson (Mr. Ragnarson):

Even tho I’ve never won an age, I’ve had the chance multiple times and decided to give it up to another whom I thought deserved it more on many occasions. What’s wrong with that?


23:13:36 Apr 24th 22 - Ragnarson (Mr. Ragnarson):

23:28:17 Apr 24th 22 - Konspyre (Captain Morgan):

Let's just be happy allies? I'm Elysium, and I think the Ely+Alba partnership this era worked exactly how we intended.
Newer players needing some time for arma is only natural, so I don't see why anyone would be particularly bothered by it ^^


23:29:41 Apr 24th 22 - Konstant (The Ancient Siegfried Fafnir Slayer):

Yes, Wiz is a tad excitable due to returning to VU from a different time; I know I needed time to adjust.


He's like you in many ways, Endless. He means well.


23:54:12 Apr 24th 22 - Ragnarson (Mr. Ragnarson):

All age long Wizz was telling me how cool Endless was too


00:10:00 Apr 25th 22 - Konspyre (Captain Morgan):

he did talk about that in our disc lol, true


01:52:45 Apr 25th 22 - Endless (Ms. Endless Pawsibilities):

Never have I been in a kingdom (knowingly) that talked about manipulating for an era winner, I have been in kingdoms where the farming core defender won. Everyone razzed tf out of him but he was doing his job. Have been in kingdoms where the strongest attacker won. Have been in kingdoms where we got our azzes handed to us lol. Probably have been in kingdoms that cheated, did play with Kath before lol.


  I’m just surprised it’s so open the talk , always suspected that some of this was going on but really surprised it’s coming from a kingdom that likes to think it’s honorable because it doesn’t seem like an honorable thing. Just my take and not my problem. I’ve won on Valhalla without anything outside of normal kingdom play. Nothing to prove except to myself.  

Anyhow, had a cranky moment. It is what it is.


04:38:54 Apr 25th 22 - Ragnarson (Mr. Ragnarson):

He did say you were blunt and straight forward lol. However, I think you might have gotten the wrong idea. No one ever manipulated their KD’s or anyone else’s, I climbed to the top myself. We just thought arma was going to be cast sooner. We are on the same page now tho :D


04:48:53 Apr 25th 22 - Ragnarson (Mr. Ragnarson):

Actually, I can’t take full credit. We had the best teamwork and organization this age  I’ve ever seen in VU. We planned out the cities taken, we planned out each other roles, ya, I can’t take full credit at all. 


09:05:23 Apr 25th 22 - Lord Caedus:

Yeah you guys are a well oiled machine.


13:59:02 Apr 25th 22 - Marquess Whopper:

so anyone gonna cast arma today?


I've send zeta already a message to end this era. it's taking way too long. 

Elysium, alba, please cast arma or send zeta a message. 


13:59:57 Apr 25th 22 - Jarl Eivor:

Should I burn my cities Will that get Arma here faster???


14:05:25 Apr 25th 22 - Lord Caedus:

MUs are in transit - it's happening. Also, a further reading of the forum would see that Zeta has been sent a message and we're planning on casting. 


Simmer. 


14:28:01 Apr 25th 22 - Marquess Radagast:

yeah, i wasn't really interested in reading everything xD


15:25:23 Apr 25th 22 - Mr. Rogrog:

Why's everyone assuming we want world domination here? Is it cause we're actually playing the game while we wait? 


For those of you that threaten to burn your own cities down, and then proceed to train units and recapture cities. Please just continue what you're doing and maybe turn the whining down a couple notches? Pretty sure I've burned more cities.

My first few days I was told this game is more about a tight knit community of players that have been around for many years than it is the game itself. I'm seeing more and more this is more like a dysfunctional family that any new player probably doesn't want to be a part of. 

So for the love of god can we all just get along and be patient? I hate this part of the era too, but hey, here we are. So just play the game or take a break. 


15:33:10 Apr 25th 22 - Konspyre (Captain Morgan):

I can confirm the dysfunctional family part! Some are just here to have a good time others can't help but find drama everywhere /shrug


15:42:59 Apr 25th 22 - Mr. Neewb:

Yeah man, I'm just trying to have a good time too but people be ruining it! The dice in this game are good enough at hampering fun, dont need help from the players lol 


16:22:48 Apr 25th 22 - Dark Spawn (Sir Dominion):

I am surprised by amount of complaining almost every era about Arma. But its always about the same thing, Arma schedule and Imperium vs Berserkers arguments. One could argue its good to have active community even if its slightly toxic, because year ago there would be no posts in forums for weeks. It made the game look even more dead than it is (low amount of players is a fact). 


One appeal of the game is ability to enjoy the game and be valuable without being at computer screen all day. I believe being online 5-6 times a day for 20 minutes or so is as valuable to the kingdom as people who are on Discord all day(Imperium would disagree). Sure, if you want to have full community experience you should join Discord. You could say we tag you in Discord, but I have GTs and I know if there is nobody 5 hours away from me I am safe till next time I log. If its war I am online 24/7. 

Last few eras when we won as kingdom bunch of people complained, and it was annoying. I am glad to see its not really my group that is complaining now. They won, if they need time for Arma let them, chill. I find it nice to relax on 2 characters that died to prepare a storm on my third character.   



16:33:33 Apr 25th 22 - Konstant (The Ancient Noble Gilgalad):

A little interjection.

Imperium uses discord as a combo forum/engagement tool. Plenty of people in Imperium do not actively post in discord, but it is important for them to have it, as it is our "forum" as well.

That is all. Please continue your Valhalla stuffs =)


16:37:04 Apr 25th 22 - Konspyre (Captain Morgan):

real OGs still using skype


16:51:45 Apr 25th 22 - Jarl The Vengeful:

There should be a tweak to how era ends in my opinion. There does seem to be alot of complaints every era about how or when the era ends. It would be nice if the PM Zeta method was effective but we all know his time on here varies so sometimes it can be days before a response is issued.


17:13:34 Apr 25th 22 - Mr. Rogrog:

Yes I can definitely see how a tweak would be good. I feel armageddon needs to be a little bit more accessible but not so much that anyone can cast it. 


Armageddon was actually one of the appeals for me when I started and learned of it. Its unique to have players choose when to end it. I was warned of how it's not actually all that ideal and I can see that now. 

I'm kind of surprised there isn't s thread calling for changes to it like there is for AOTD. 


17:28:10 Apr 25th 22 - Dark Spawn (Sir Dominion):

Aotd is different, its just the aotd chain people complain about and you will not find anyone defend aotd chain method. I like the Arma now, would not like it to chance. Winning gives you almost nothing, only name written in winners list. At least your group decides when you want Arma to end. You fought for the win, you deserve to decide when to end it. Few eras ago I had a three day trip that I would be gone do we postponed Arma slightly, maybe few members are on a trip/vacation now. They won, give them their victory and be patient.

10:12:00 Apr 26th 22 - Prime Minister Gimli Back:

Been reading along (though I’m not on Val) - doesn’t all of this raise the question of how we can make winning an era more appealing? Shouldn’t there be a kingdom ranking at the end of the era, based on battles won, kills, overall power, etc.? And make arma something to fight about, a king of the hill type of war, rather than something everyone sits and waits for.


12:57:12 Apr 26th 22 - Venus (Mr. Wizard):

There does need to a better way to end the era, as not every kd can get magic 9.


18:08:16 Apr 26th 22 - Bigfield (Mr. Bigfield):

So are we thinking May or June for a new Era?
