Well 21 turns in and with many many turns unplayed I think the test game has about run its course. Incidentally it also saw it's first casualty (sorry regoarrarr + Danski!).

Unless I hear otherwise from Shadyforce, I plan to start the real game on same IP and port tomorrow evening. So look for the real game at around 7:00pm EST, Sunday July 5th.

Can we try to get everyone on at once to play the first dozen turns or so? I would love to have those turns go by in one day rather than a whole week. It might be a bit of a long shot, but it is a Sunday so I think there's a chance we can make it work. It would probably be best to do it earlier than 7:00 pm EST, I think we have a few players in Europe.

I'd rather have the chance to examine each turn like we have with the Apolyton BTSDG. A lot can happen in the first few turns.

Do you think you'd need more than 5 or 10 minutes per turn for the first 10 turns or so?

I don't, but I can't imagine we can coordinate all 11 teams. Remember, even one holdout makes this plan not work. If you want to try to organize it though, FYI I am available from 7:00pm EST tomorrow and 7:00pm EST on Monday.

OK everyone, let's all try to log in at 7:00pm EST, 4:00pm PST, and 0:00 GMT on Sunday (I guess in GMT it's really Monday). How many people do we have from Europe?

Actually Sunrise, is there any reason not to load the real game up now? You can set the timer to 36 hours, and then after the first turn switch it to 18. (Sorry for being so anxious to get this started smile )

No way I can manage midnight GMT (I am at GMT +1) and then play on for a couple of hours or so. There is work starting on Monday morning.
I also would like to examine and discuss each turn with my teammate to some extent.

I believe there are some guys from the UK and I think Imhotep is also on GMT +1.

I am on EDT. All I am doing tommorow is laundry and yard work so I will check in often. If it starts earlier I will play my turns to try and move things along.
