I like to stall just because i assume quickhost for turn1 is on... meaning that even if you set a goal date... if i submit early.. then everyone is early... but i've worked on a revised pretender.. i can't replace it because of the quickhost quickstarting...

but then if EVERYONE does this the game never starts....


is it possible to just set a date for game start but turn the quickhosting feature for it off?

Got a family visit going on for the weekend, things should get back to normal on Monday, and I should be able to get a pretender in soon their after (certainly in time for a Wednesday start).

QM is still unavailable and hasn't been able to send in a pretender and I've had one person drop deciding they have too much on their plate. And coobe still hasn't uploaded his. Should I start looking for players to take these spots, or should I wait until QM gets back?

I am back, but I have been drafted into a new RAND game in the meantime so I'm a bit worried this might be one game to many. I can probably start off with it if you need to get it rolling right away though.

Well, sooner would be better. And I would rather not have to remake the map. But if you don't think you can handle the game load I can try to see if there is some other way I can fill the spot.

OK, Lingchih convinced me of my need to play in this game. I will take Pythium as a normal if that is still available followed by any other available nation.

ALL SHALL BURN! Also, numerous yet unnamed threats are pending!

You're right, I'd missed them for the other thread. Yeah, sure, you can join as pythium.
