In case you are free for a test game now, I would be available.

I am free now

I'm in the chat room.

Just played a super quick test with Dan and we closed three features (one road and two cities) with the fairy and received the bonus 3 points every time. So we're not sure how to recreate the problem that you guys had.

I think I've seen this bug but I have a feeling that it's restricted to playing in larger groups.

I'm not sure but I believe we start playin the dream team game on 3.4.1 since I had to download 3.4.2 for the final try.
Note that on the first two tries not only JCZ was not showing the 3 points when completing features but it was also not showing the 1point for not moving.

Hounk and I just played a 2P practice match with only P&D on 3.4.2 without any problems, so it looks like it's OK for the league. Maybe it's the issue of more than 2 players, or a certain combination of expansions, or the different version issue that Chooselife mentioned.

It could even be to do with the fact that a previously saved game had to be loaded? It's a long-shot, but... well... I don't know.

Anyway. One more player, come on! You'll all be excited to know that the initial groups aren't going to be named Groups A, B and C. Oh no! I'm ever so proud of myself for coming up with something even better (and more appropriate for this expansion), but I can't reveal the groups until we have our 27th player.

It's dragon names from 'How to train a dragon'.

Or royal princess names?

Hounk · « **Reply #67 on:** January 20, 2016, 05:21:04 AM »

I don't think, it has anything to do with a previous version. We finished the game yesterday on 3.4.2, and I think it would not have been possible to load a save game of an older version.

I think, the issue was in the game, even before first reloading, but I'm not totally certain.

The fantasyfreak in me approves this message.

Hoopla! You're in...

So then, without further ado, here are the groups:

Dragons:

aenima
danisthirty
Hounk
jma03
Merlin_89
ny1050220
quevy
Rosco
Valheru

Princesses:

Carcking
Chooselife
Chuck
Halfling
jungleboy
kettlefish
khalidqasrawi
MrNumbers
Rich_The_Fish

Fairies:

Andrew the Ambo
Curt194
Decar
Jéré
JT Atomico
Leven
monwil
rfielder
zone2

(and yes, I did deliberately allocate the names of the groups so that I didn't have to be a princess or a fairy

)

For the record, groups were arranged by taking the top 6 players based on Elo rating and splitting them between groups so that the top 3 were all placed in different groups to each other, and 4 - 6 were also placed in different groups to each other (irrespective of who from the top 3 was already in the group in which they were placed). All other names were drawn randomly into one of the three groups with no bias for Elo rating (where known) or location.

Next step is for me to create 3 new topics; 1 for each group, and then link to them here. I'll also post some final notes before I give the go ahead to start playing, so please don't play any games before you've read these!

Good luck everyone!
