Hmmm. Were the rest of y'all not interested in the slow game Chazar sent the message about (with the server and port)? Only 3 of the 8 of us have uploaded pretenders.
Remember, this is the one that
should start with 4 provinces each for a faster start, but either 48 or 72 hour long turns, so it doesn't take too much of our time.
( Even if it's just 3 of us or so, I'd still like to do the slow game as well; maybe open the game to others, but 3 would give some elbow room before the burning of temples and the crucifying of Prophets begins.
)
