That would be very kind, although we didnt come up with a "snarky" name so far... How about something like "PulseOfGods" picking up the theme of a fixed schedule? No? Well, I guess "UTC12" would do for me pretty well...

Are all our settings clear? (see first post on this thread)

- I wouldnt mind if renaming is enabled to help management, but I respect people who want it disabled, as it can surely be abused.

- It would be probably sensible if there is a masterpassword set, but I would prefer if you, Norfleet, would keep that a secret to yourself only. Just in case of emergency.

You might want to do a head count, it's been a bit of a confusing start

We went from 2-5 days to 24 hr.

Sure, but I dont know how. I mean, there is the second post in this thread, which I edit to maintain it updated, and I hope that everyone took a look at. Currently it list:

Abysia:JJ_Colorado
Ulm:Mark the Merciful
C'tis:Kel
Caelum:Chazar
R'lyeh:Pickles
Pangaea:Cainehill


Or should we ask that everybody sends me/us a life-sign? Or should I simply use the email message mechanism of this forum to send everybody a message once the server is up and running?

That's not snarky. Besides, the conditions dictate that I will come up with the snarky name.

It shall be...."Fat Obstreperous Jerks".

By "standard", I assume you refer to the commonly accepted MP standard of Indy-6, Sites-50, blah, blah, blah.

No need for insulting!
(BTW: I've lost 7kg Last month so I'm not fat anymore!!!)
EDIT: I looked up "obstreperous". Seems ok with me now that I know the meaning...

No, I meant standard as the game offers it! What does everybody taking part else say?

If I am in, I vote for the settings as specified by Norfleet, which are "standard" in much of the MP community, though not the "defualt" ones the game gives.

As for Fat Obstreperous Jerks, it is a small price to pay for free hosting, no?
