PBEM39 Setup and Tech Thread

[SevenSpirits]

Here's the pbem32 map.

I'm interested, but I'd prefer to maybe share the team with somebody else, since it would be my first PBEM game. I'll see if I can drum up a teammate.

[SevenSpirits]

Treskies, hope I'm not off-putting but I there are a lot of games specifically for greens or even intermediate players starting up these days, and I'd recommend trying to get in on one of those rather than this one which I anticipate being pretty easy to crash and burn before the first turn in.

Yeah, everyone else in this game has played quite a few games, so this may not be the best one to start out in. We've had quite a few games where someone new to PBEM play gets thrown in with more experienced players, and it's tough for them to compete which makes it for a not-so-fun first PBEM experience. I'd recommend ded-lurking a thread and trying to contribute and/or starting a thread for another greens/intermediate game and see what kind of interest you get.

Still one more spot open here by the way. It may even come with a free teammate if you'd like to draft Treskies into service.

I'm willing to give it a go if I qualify for Seven's standards. PBEM34v seems to have stalled and my PB5 load is only half as much now that Scooter can play turns as well.

[treskies]

Yeah I was actually thinking much the same. I've been keeping an eye out for any threads about green games though, and haven't seen any in the Civ general forum. Are they posted somewhere else?

EDIT: Ah, I see I entirely missed the PBEM 37 thread somehow, stupid final exams. Hopefully I can attach myself to one of those teams. And of course I'll be a loyal dedlurker here if anybody so desires.

Okay, so we're looking at five players; Scooter, Seven, Pindicator, Dazed, and Yuri? I can start up the map as soon as I'm done with the EitB pitboss, which if someone could run through a copy/rotator might be helpful, 64x64 is hard to hand-draw.

[Sian]

Commodore ... send it to me and i'll do it

[scooter]

Great, we have 5.

Treskies, you are more than welcome to follow my thread and contribute . I tend to update fairly frequently so you wouldn't be in the dark.

[treskies]

Sir, you have yourself a dedlurker.
