Plan: Following the order we are randomly placed in (1 through 9), we all take cards and move all but 1 army out of our capitals and place as many armies as we can next to the number above you (this because: 2 will elim 1, 3 eliminates 2, 4 eliminates 3, etc - this commences as soon as 1 gets his/her 5th card - before then, no eliminations). After you have eliminated this ONE person above you, you do NOT do anything anymore - you let the turn RUN OUT OF TIME.

Hope it'll all go well and then we'll see whether we did something cool :roll:

So there's that glitch that happens where a player doesn't get a card if they do not take one more territory after making a kill and turning in cards. Obviously we're not turning in cards in this game so it might not be an issue, but I wonder if that glitch can still happen if the timer runs out after a kill (not something that normally happens in a game so we don't know). Do we know if this glitch was ever fixed? Hopefully it just won't be an issue but it crossed my mind.

If the glitch happens, I'll (or anyone else for that matter) contact crew to return the turn to that player, so it can be replayed (we've seen this before a few times).
So yeah - if this glitch happens, do not panic - just wait (and contact crew) till it is fixed so we can continue with the grand finale ^_^

I also do not know whether it can (still) happen... but yeah... there's nothing we can't solve, we the coolcats =d
Thanks for pointing it out! Anything else that comes to mind, sure share - we would like to see this as much streamlined as possible^^

If this glitch happends then:
1. I'll be happy because I've found a really easy game to experiment how on earth that stupid glitch is happening so that I can hopefully fix it
2. Message me - There is a way to get you your turn back so that you then still can take that extra territory anyways.
