Soliciting newbies for BtS PBEM / Tech Thread

[superjm]

I'm actually slightly more comfortable playing late evening (after 8 PM) then slightly earlier due to my schedule. So I'm good with a late evening slot no matter what.

Also, picking first is both a blessing and a curse in this format it seems. After careful consideration, I will pick the glorious empire of China.

And we're done Please review the settings in the OP, especially my clarifications of the diplo system. There is definitely a risk of it causing confusion down the line, and it'd be better to explain as much of it as possible before we're in the middle of using it. I have expanded on the declare war proposal to actually require the parties involved to commit something to the effort, else the deal will be considered broken.

Also, I have added all relevant civ and leader info to the OP so we won't all have to go look up. I know I still haven't memorized all of these by heart.

The OP states that K is ded-lurking me, but he's only said so in PM and in my thread.

Has my security been breached already?!

I'm going to have to put my super-secret thread on LOCKDOWN!

[Catwalk]

While reading your thread is strictly forbidden, checking to see who's posted in your thread is not (can do this by clicking on the post count for the thread)

And I think there were some comments earlier about dedlurking, I believe you said you had found one.

[waterbat]

I'm just preparing the paranoid conspiracy guy routine. Also "Most Recent Post" had K up there for some time.

Anyway - are we still planning a blitz start to this shindig? or will the timezone spread prevent it?

[Catwalk]

I don't think we'll be able to blitz with 6 players, especially with the time zone spread.

something that would be nice would be the emails of everyone so i could set up a email tracker and such ... i know Azza's and Catwalks from earlier games but everyone else i'm lost on ...

[Sian]

And it should be off ... make sure that everything looks correctly

Thanks Sian. You have mine from subbing for Azza in PBEM33. Mine is waterbat AT cassidyweb.com

I'll ask K if he wants the saves as well - you seem to be able to add multiples to the tracker without a problem, correct?

Do we set passwords the first time we get the save, or do you need in advance? I saw the note to post them in the thread.
