Default Orania Quick Restart Poll

Should we restart Orania_Quick?

There's been quite a few stale turns, and a couple of people have suggested a restart. I'll run this poll for 48 hours, and restart only if at least 6 people vote for it. Please don't vote unless you are playing the game.

I kinda happy with my start... so I would like to keep playing.

What about another option? The Tapyr land game just ended. Why don't we create another game with the same settings. Everyone can play the new game and those that don't want to stay in the old one can just go to AI.

Same house rules, same turnaround, same everything? Sure, I'd play. To spread the responsibility, why don't you start it.

I'll try to keep any eye out for the Tapyr game to end. I just think Emnor needs to check in to see that it is over.

When I see the game ended I'll start it. If someone else notices the free slot before I do they are welcome to create it.

Rather than restarting this game we created another one with the same setings. So if you are unhappy with your start you can switch to AI and join this game... or play both if you feel daring.

All the rules and settings are the same except for the hall of fate settings. I reduced the hall of fame from 15 down to 14, I thought this would give the game a vastly different feel and perhaps a luckier beggining.

The port is 2238. Please join and register on Mosehansen.

I will still restart Orania_Quick if I get six people voting for it.

Do the same house rules (see the first post in the Orania Semiblitz thread) apply in the new game?

Also, I note the comment "Join if part of the old game". I presume the game is open to all comers (?) If not, there's no chance of filling to 17 nations (one of the objectives of Orania Semiblitz)

Sorry I didn't mean to imply that you definetly would not be restarting the game.

Yes, all the house rules apply. Everything should be the same as the orginal except for the Hall of Fame difference.

Well someone started the new game I created... we had built all the way to three players.

Maybe this game is cursed...

Another one is up. Aptly named "Orania - Do not start game"

Same rules, same settings as the orginal.
Port 2260

Actually I increaded the host time to 24 hours. Hopefully that will make it easier for people.
