The first round will be four games right? As long as we all agree to abstain from any admin type stuff for games we are personally involved in it shouldn't be a problem.

I am sure that I at least will not make the final round so I can resolve anything that comes up then.

well sj and i are not playing. so you have your two admins... And we payed our 20 dollars even

Ed.... No contest rule like that here. Only suggestion I have is that if some one knows that they are going to beta test... well they toss their prize of the game or beta test slot back into the pile for someone else... and then claim one of the other prizes...

P.S. 'in-crowd' i am not... I get to register for a beta test slot like everyone else when it opens.... 0 for 2 so far on that... and i forfit my chance in the tournament to gain a beta slot. Small price to pay to thank Aaron , PBW and the community for the years of enjoyment and friendship.
So I helped out in other ways.... As one can always treat it as it is, an opportunity. Hey I like the game. This time I did not get to test it and help make the game evolve offically. But I can do it with suggestions, and when the game comes out.... Bug people over and over again with my ideas.... \HINT --- SORTABLE REPORTS with includes and excludes ... /Hint

Thats the way I do it.

oooooo. This sounds like fun! Too bad my schedule doesn't allow me into any 48 hour games. For those of us who can't get into a game but want to be spectattors, will there be some sort of venue for us? Perhaps Sticky Posts on this forum with turn updates and reports once things get going? Obviously no one would want sensitive info posted:

(Turn update: Primitive prepares to enter Geo's space with a fleet of 23 destroyers. Geo's 3 colonies in the system look to get glassed)

but some sort of progress, like scoring and player logs of some sort?

(Hey Ruatha, think you could put something in your companion that would allow for posting automaticly )

I wonder if the Talisman will be "must have" or "suicide"...

I'd love to play, but:

1. No credit card.
2. No money (hey,i'm only 17!!)
