Home life VERY up in the air right now but I will sign up.
And I like the settings.

@Calahan, your suggestion has merits. I am not yet decided about it. I'll go with the majority here. So far it's 2:1 against it.

@chrispedersen, you want in or just offer to help with the mod if needed?

@Zeldor, You gave good input. Let me relate plz (inline).
"
- LA Ermor and R'lyeh in no diplo game is a bad idea, will make the game less fun
[WL] Possibly so. In dom-II RAND hosted by Pasha I played Ermor (basically LA Ermor of dom-III). I was in the top most of the game but Jurri killed me with Mari blood theme (similar to LA Mari).
I personally hate to ban nations. If they are overpowered and there are enough vets in the game it is possible that they would be ganged on. or not. But that is part of the fun in the game.
I see it as an experiment. Could work or could prove disastrous. If so, there's can always be another RAND.

- CBM should be a must nowadays
[WL] Yes. You are probably right. If only b/c of the exploits it fixes.
- no game should go over 72h timer, ever, 96h in extreme cases
[WL] Matter of personal preference. I want this game to be relaxed.
- 30-50% VPs max for the win, not 11 out of 12
[WL] Sorry my bad with the 12. It's 22, or 20 if we ban Ermor and R'lyeh
- indie str 9 will make some nations really cry, may be interesting though [but combining that with RAND may be too much
[WL] let them cry . The fittest survives. Let's try something different every time.

I'd like to join. Yup - another noob.

How long will we have to submit pretenders once nations are rolled? I'm not intimately familiar with many LA nations.

After all players sign-up we shall wait a week for pretender creation. Then we start the game.

Thank you rdonj!- As of now you are officially YARG's co-admin

Cool. I'm very easy to reach with pm's, as long as I'm not sleeping or busy away from a computer I tend to respond very quickly. So if someone needs my attention that is the fastest way to get it.

Question: How exactly do you want me to handle extension requests? Just say "some unnamed person has requested an extension for x reason", or do I need to provide slightly more specific info?

Hmmm, with this settings and low-pace game schedule I think I can handle it. I'm in!

Yeah, I could do it how wingeddog handled it. I just want to be sure I'm doing it in a way that agrees with wraithlord and that things go smoothly.
