Creating a new MP game-Musical chairs

[The Panther]

I suppose I should not enter yet another MP game, lol. I suppose I also ought to play a race that I at least have some decent SP experience with.

But then again, I suppose I am hooked on this game. So what the heck!

I will try my hand at Mictlan. I did play it once in SP on the the first day as my first race after I installed the game. I remember getting whipped bad by two normal(!) AIs and thinking that Mictlan was a lousy race. I mean, those wimpy national troops you can recruit are weak as all get out. And my dominion seemed to crawl outwards at a ridiculously slow rate (I didn't even know about blood sacrifices, haha).

So, I might as well give ol' Mictlan another try and see how she goes. I will work on a pretender and upload tonight or tomorrow.

Cheers.

I would like to join as Ermor

And I'd like in as Abysia, if that's all right with everyone. Sorry, Thufir, but this means I'm out of the running for your other new game. How many MP games do you guys play anyway?

[The Panther]

Counting me, who still has yet to settle on a Mictlan pretender, there are nine players in the game. Since Orania is too large a map for this number, then I suppose this ought to mean one of two things:
1. We are waiting for more players, or
2. We should change to a smaller map.

Anyway, I do promise to upload a pretender before the end of today.

Well, my intention was to be in 3MP games by this weekend, and since I hadn't heard from Frosted, I decided to start my own smaller game. Which does mean I'll have to withdraw from this one Sorry!

I would love to play a game with a very large number of players in Orania, so if this game is still open next week, I might opt back in (OTOH, if I were you guys, I'd vote for starting sooner with your existing group on a possibly smaller map).

I'd vote to start now on Cradle of Dominions Map. Our number (9 or 10) should be ok for that map. It would be fun to play this weekend...maybe with QH we can get in a bunch of turns?

Of course, all it takes is one person to be gone and you don't get in a lot of turns. Plus the time zone issue. But still, the early turns in a game can easily go twice per day, whether weekend or not.

I suppose I ought to take a look at cradle before voting.

I am ready to play... My pretender is uploaded.

[The Panther]

Eleven races are now uploaded. It probably is enough to go forth if we want.
