Shinuyama!

full contact is fine with me.

There's no reason why we HAVE to put the server on 15m quickhost. Leaving it on 24hrs is fine because it will process as soon as we all send in turns.

EDIT: and just to confirm. the blitz portion of the game is this sunday only? I can do that, but may not be able to the following sunday.

We may still need a couple more people to make a proper game of it, so it may not be until next week that we try one of these.

I did want the fast turn timer on though, to encourage a sense of urgency.

No staring at your neighbors for 10 mins on turn 2, debating between attacking the 30 Heavy Inf, or the 50 Deer Tribe.

well if we don't get it going tomorrow, there's no guarantees I can make it next sunday; but I can try.

Ok, got the project done. I'm available if needed.

Bwaha (Rylah) rush OK

If i may suggest a map, (its really cool) world of warhammer.

it doesn't feel like we'll start sunday. the forums being down means we havn't been able to pick up any new players or even make plans for the ones that are here.

given the up-in-the-airness of this game right now, I'd prefer not to start tomorrow. The lack of planning makes starting difficult, and I don't want to sit around on my day off waiting for a game that might not materialize.

not to hate on the forums, but god damn they chose a bad time.

I can look at getting next sunday off, and we can plan for then. I could perhaps be available tomorrow, but only if the game materializes early. like I said, not gonna wait around to see if a game we havn't had the weekend to plan for takes off at all.

Well, they chose the time when they thought the most players would be offline to update the forums (US Independance Day). I actually commend them for that. They worked through their holiday to do work on the forums.

If you guys want to do this next weekend, I can probably be available either Saturday or Sunday nights. No need for afternoon time. I am totally unavailable during the work week though.

great news, folks. i'm off again this sunday. i'm still in for Shinuyama then. lets try and get this thing going for next week.

maybe let's take inventory of who we have right now, what settings we are going to use, and start an "official" game thread.

if we are using llamaserver, I'd suggest game name "Rhea", after the fastest (I believe) S. American land animal; since this game is supposed to be a fast start style.
