threetwoone has asked for a replacement

Anyone not currently playing is eligible to take over. If you want to take over but have looked at the moves for this turn, please say as much and you may replace them after the current turn, with someone else taking this turn for them.

Given that multiple people haven't submitted yet, and Christmas/New Year are busy for a lot of people, I'm extending the deadline by 48 hours . (I normally set it for seven days, and didn't extend it for the holidays.) If you think this is unfair/me taking advantage of me being the mod, please say so.

Turn 21 http://fora.xkcd.com/download/file.php?id=57571 Commentary: Soupspoon managed to kill one of Heury's remaining pieces, meaning they are now tied with emlightened.

Turn 20 http://fora.xkcd.com/download/file.php?id=57529 Commentary: No deaths. There must be something in the air, as the pieces at the bottom of the board are trying to attack it. Successfully too! Three entire air have died. threetwoone and emlightened are successfully forming a snake. Attachment...

threetwoone has submitted their move by DM

heuristically_alone did not submit their move before the deadline, so now anyone not currently playing (including faubi) may play their move for them.

Thanks patzer! And yep, the outcome of the board where faubi was is correct. I think a similar situation has happened before which involved a grab instead of a death in the upper-left of the board - maybe somewhere near turn 11? Soft Deadline is 23:59 UTC on the 7th December. Hard Deadline is 23:59 ...

heuristically_alone's move has been accepted.

In future, once the hard deadline has passed, the player or any other user not playing may submit that player's move. Moves by known alt accounts and obviously suicidal moves will be ignored.

emlightened

threetwoone submitted their moves before the deadline. heuristically alone has not submitted their moves, and the hard deadline has passed. This means that a third party will submit their moves for them. I'm in kind-of a rush, so can't sort this out until this evening. If you are interested in subm...

Turn 18 http://fora.xkcd.com/download/file.php?id=57439 Commentary: Woo! Death! Barbarianism! Assassination! But first, the weather. There appears to be a heavy wind due west near the middle of the board, as many of threetwoone's and emlightened's pieces near the middle moved leftwards. Soupspoon's...

threetwoone has submitted their moves via DM I tried to post that last night, but my computer complained a bunch. heuristically_alone's moves have been accepted, but they should post before the hard deadline. The only reason the move has been accepted is because I was asleep and offline between the...

Turn 17 http://fora.xkcd.com/download/file.php?id=57397 Commentary: emlightened seems to have broken her joystick - all of her pieces did actions facing upwards this turn. Fortunately, she was still able to choose what action to take - all of threetwoone's pieces moved straight down. Into the Abyss...

Hehe. I ended up coming up with an alternate solution - if I start making the board and commentary once the moves come in*, then I can come up with some beforehand, so it shouldn't pose a delay. (I've already come up with two. ^^) Also, Soupspoon, pieces can't multitask - I think you made a typo in ...

Turn 16 http://fora.xkcd.com/download/file.php?id=57382 Commentary: emlightened manages to kill faubi's 3 with two pieces at once. She tries to get two points for it, but fails, because that's against the rules. patzer's 2 sneakily escapes capture and death from threetwoone and Soupspoon with a gra...

I made a mistake on threetwoone's move - Soupspoon and patzer are free to resubmit as late as they want (before the hard deadline).

Question for everyone (playing): Do you want a notification when I push a new move out?

Turn 15 http://fora.xkcd.com/download/file.php?id=57371 Commentary: No deaths. This turn seems to mark the Great Migration - over two thirds of the pieces move. heuristically_alone's 4 has been banished to the outer reaches of the board (specifically, where faubi's wizard started) by Soupspoon. fau...

There was one game (can't remember which), which was actually run by faubi's faubibot. It didn't gain popularity, so I can't remember if it actually exited testing stage.

The two players who posted after the deadline were prodded only 9 hours before the deadline, and moved within 24 hours of the prod.

Making the board for the next turn - all players' moves will be included. Should be quicker than the last one.
