Yes gandalph, you put the finger on the right spot: Quitters

.
So far we had one quitter and that probaly due to the war in iraq, Drizzt321 told me that he has some things to do in the army, but that he would be bak on the 22 of march. But that was offcourse before the war started.
So for now I'm, slightly positive
And the point about the placement of player and offcourse partner placement.
I have made the map and put all the starting points on them. Then Angelique (my wife) made the team and placed them on the map and tried to have a equal distance between the partners.
So that should be done fairly good....
But like stonemill said: if you have to what more experienced player, they should made contact far sooner then maybe newbie. Who are more interessted in first colonizing their surroundings and then make scout for mapping of the galaxy.
Just an idea
