I think we should restart. No point in inviting the AI this early.

Also, shouldn't we make sure that the number of clusters equals the new number of players? Otherwise, whoever finds the empty cluster first has a big advantage.

PBW seems to be down for the moment so I will get the game set up as soon as that is up again and also when the Last (2?) empires are uploaded. If every one agrees that both maps are acceptable then I will just randomly pick on and let everyone know which one it is.

i will delete a cluster and have it set to 9 players... I also added the player to my list of Banned players who are not invited to join games i host. Any other game admins want the name send me an email.

Just curious, but why'd you ban him from other games you host?

Players should not sign up for a game and then as soon as it starts just drop it.

The other players do not need that. It can ruin a game even before it gets going.

So I like to avoid those situations. This is one way of making that happen.

I assume that we don't have to join in any new game because you make a new map? Or do we have to make something...?

i think the easy way would be to mark the empire dead and then the game admin sends out the new turn with just 9 empires in a new game... that way we do not have to quit or join a new game.

The bottom left cluster was cleaned out and made empty... just so you know

and start positions were added for the remaining clusters...

Ok, thanks for doing that Tesco...I removed some of the empty systems, just far too many I think. I will send it to everyone so that we are all on even terms as far as the map goes. I will set up the game real quick and we can get started again. Hopefully this time without any problems.
