i'll take jotunheim... I've played about 5 mp games, nothing but swift thrashings so far though.

Having only experienced swift thrashings definitely qualifies you for this game!!!

We're already up to six, so we should be able to get this started tomorrow. Here's our current positions:

bleach168 - Abysia
FM_Surrigon - Machaka
J Henry Waugh - Arcosephale
Thufir - Pythium
Cheezeninja - Jotunheim
Yvelina - Vanheim

Is there any room for another? I'd like to get in, perhaps as C'tis. I've played one MP game, all newbies, and I was the second one eliminated. Urgh. I'll be out of town next weekend, though. Is there any chance of changing to 48 hour quickhost?

Sure - no problem!

FWIW, you did better in your first game than I seem to be doing in mine

Well, not as a general rule, at least for the first 30+ turns it'd be good to stick to 25h QH. For next weekend, we can make an exception if we need to, but the best thing would be if you could find someone to play for you. As I understand it, turns take quite a long time later in the game, but it's unlikely we'll be that far along by next weekend.

Nonetheless, we should be able to run a bunch of the "easy" turns this weekend so hopefully we'll be well along into the game by next weekend.

Alright, I'm in as C'tis. Should be fun - I'm going to try not to make the same mistakes I made Last time

Whoops! I forgot to put a password on my Pretender. Can you please kick me, and I'll re-upload. Sorry.

You need to make yourself anonymous before I can kick you off.

Also, YellowCactus and Yvelina, could you sign in at:

You need to sign in before I can bounce Schmoe.

Schmoe, I did bounce you (and managed to do it w/o bouncing YellowCactus and Yvelina at the same time), so you can re-upload your pretender now.

What has happened to Arco (J Henry)? It looks like he had a stale turn Wednesday, then took a turn Thursday, and now it looks like he might go stale again. J, are you having connection problems again?

J Henry Waugh · #10 September 13th, 2004, 10:38 PM

Having difficulty getting into game again ... stuck at "Waiting for game info" message... ...tried 3 times in a row to no avail...
