Allegiances 2 (Large,Team-Based Game, PLAYING)

[Janlm]

this sounds interesting, i'd like to play

[parcelt]

I have only ever played on the llamaserver, which I think is great. Does direct connect require any specific settings on my computer? I am talking firewalls, internet settings etc, because on occasion I have to get my turns in from a work or public computer where I might not control all settings. Other than that, I have no preferences as to what server we use (although as said before, happy experiences with the llamaserver).

[Thrawn]

Let's try out Velusion's server, as people seem to be leaning towards that. Thanks for the offer, Velusion! Let me know what you need.

Let's go ahead and close up shop recruiting wise, and get things going. We have 14 players, so that gives us 7 teams. Dr. P you mentioned 16 players. Are there two that I'm missing?

If everyone is cool with it, I will random assign teams like last time, and then we can decide if we want to bid or random assign the themes.

Dr. P feel free to start on the map now that we know the amount of players at your convenience.

[Evilhomer]

Go ahead and make the teams with some random approach of your choice....

[DrPraetorious]

I need to know whether to put water on the map.

[archaeolept]

you forgot tromper... we need one more for the eighth team

[Velusion]

Once the assignments are made I'll give a location for players to upload their pretenders.

[Thrawn]

No, Tromper PMed me and said he won't be able to join us. So, we are 7 teams. I will random assign teams in a few minutes, stay tuned...

[Thrawn]

And the teams are...........

Team 1 - Dr. P, Micah
Team 2 - Carlosib, Parcelt
Team 3 - Baalz, Shovah32
Team 4 - Thrawn, Velusion
Team 5 - Archaeolept, EvilHomer
Team 6 - Folket, Snacktime
Team 7 - Janlm, DryaUnda

Just drew numbers from a coffee mug.

Now, I will random the themes, basically the same way. Draw a number 1-7 from one mug (for the team), then a number 1-9 from another mug (representing the theme).
