Four days, four players, a map meant for 17 players, for what would be your sixth game currently started on mosehansen, Cohen.

How long are you going to hog that game slot, quitter?

well, whether he's a quitter isn't really germaine to his hogging slots. Cohen, there has been remarkably little interest in this game. please free up the slot so that someone else can put up a game.

perhaps we could get that "cradle of zen" game up?

True enough - that's why I only put in the one word, 'quitter', as a ... homonym(?), a word that means the same as his name.

But yes - I have more of a leaning towards difficult magic games than most (other than Cohen), and I still find they get tedious when there's too many of them. Add in the other bizarre restrictions, and it's no surprise there's not much interest, and that's the real issue - if Cohen were starting games that were of great general interest, instead of the same things over and over, it'd be different.

That'd be awesome, as an interesting map that allows a decent, reasonable, amount of players. (Faerun needs close to 15 at least, imo, which means the likelihood of quitters is high, even without bizarre rules.) I like the smaller map games myself in a lot of ways, but feel like the low number of players supported is better suited to email or private hosting, rather than taking up a slot on mosehansen.

If only there were some great small maps. ( Cirlani and Urgaiea(sp?) are both okay, but certainly not on a par with, mmm, Cradle, Parganos, Faerun, or Tyrande (those are ones I've looked at - I'm not insulting others), albeit far better than Aran, which won't be suitable for MP until someone issues a .map file that's fixed for MP play; that should probably be done by / via Illwinter, since it's an official map.)

Cohen - how long are you going to hog a slot that should be obvious isn't getting the players?
