Newbie PBEM game starting

[Graeme Dice]

Well, now that there should be a bunch of new people to Dominions, I think we should probably start some quick games away from the gurus who would horribly crush us and dance up and down on the corpses of our pretenders.

As such, I'm looking to set up a PBEM game. The settings are as follows:
Site Frequency: 50%
Independent Strength: 6
Hall of Fame Size: 15
All other settings are at their defaults.
No restrictions on nation picks.
The map will be Aran unless there's a consensus that some other map is superior.
Turns will be run MWF at the minimum, as quickly as possible otherwise.
Respond to this thread or send me a private message if you are interested.

I'll play!

I'd like to play! Despite the fact that I act knowledgeable, I've only played 1 MP game and I lost. In fact, I was the first player eliminated=)

But I only have the demo right now, so if the game starts before Monday or so I'd have to join as a demo nation and switch over to my full Version once it arrived. Is Abysia OK?

Edit: Misspelled "knowledgeable"

Okay, so far we have 9 people and their race preferences:

Me: Pythium
Zen: Unknown
Teraswaerto: Unknown
Rabelais: Unknown
Saber Cherry: Abyssia
PhilD:Ulm, Man, or Jotunheim
Truper: Vanheim
Raen: Arcosephale or Machaka
Sammual: Ermor or Jotunheim

That looks like enough to start, and I'm planning to use the Aran map so email me your pretenders at grdice@ece.ualberta.ca If there's a conflict between pretenders, those who get the file in first get the spot.

I'll start on Wednesday night at midnight Mountain time, as long as nothing unforseen happens before then.

If I missed anyone, let me know.

I'd be glad to play.

Given the choice, I'd play Ulm, or Man. Or Jotunheim.

Graeme: I'll send you a PM with my email address.

I am willing to take whatever is open after everyone else does. I don't mind not playing my 'favorite' race.
