hm... already a ctis pretender uploaded.... why is this ?

Re: Game: Outriders (open)
 

I'll try Marignon if you are still taking players. I'm working on a pretender, and should be uploaded within a couple of hours.

Re: Game: Outriders (open)
 

It is quite simple. I already have taken them.

As a suggestion to Zachariah there should really be a signup period for the game. Or at least a requirement to post which nation you're taking to prevent this sort of thing.

I had uploaded my god last night and had not announced it. I sometimes prefer some anonymity in my games or at least for the early part of the game. Sorry for the confusion coobe. It is generally a good idea to login to the server to see which nations remain before you make your god.

Well, I've finally uploaded my pretender.

On the subject of anonymity, it would probably be a good idea some other time and thread to hash out some system for that. I can see positives and negatives for that, but the main issue is that it's hard for mp n00bs like me to pick up on the clues when anonymity isn't mentioned explicitly, and anonymous players naturally don't advertise etiquette for it.

Perhaps a poll could be used to keep track of joined members? Or declaration of anonymous at the beginning of the game? I'm just brainstorming, but since the problems been hashed out, I really don't care to clutter this thread further. It'd be interesting to see what a dedicated thread could come up with, or a game where players didn't declare their race, simply posting that they've joined after sending in a pretender?

Well, doesn't matter now, but I could see anonymity adding some fun, so I'd love to see some n00b friendly system for this or an anon/public/mixed tag for games.

when is this game starting?

Re: Game: Outriders (open)
 

and now ? can i still join ? i mean its quite confusing if everybody would just join without saying what nation he wants. It jsut doesnt work that way....

Re: Game: Outriders (open)
 

omg, once again i was unable to play as my selected pretender! I just tried a test game w/ the same pretender, same settings, and it was fine, so I think someone must have bumped me.

I will start this game again, and I'm assuming that everyone's taking the same nation's that they originally selected. If not, just post to this thread. Please be respectful of other people's nation selections!

This time, before starting, I will make sure that everything is proper.

Sorry for the craziness!
