nooo, I like to add an H at the end because it's not Hee Hee, it's Heh Heh.

Hee Hee, Heh Heh, get the difference? One is a long E sound, the other is a short E.

We currently have:

T'ien Ch'i: Saber Cherry
Man: Zapmeister
C'tis: Argitoth
R'lyeh: Graeme Dice
Pangaea: st.patrik
Ulm: Delphinium
Pythium: izaqyos
Machaka: Captain Scarlett

so we'll be playing in the Desert Eye.

I'll leave registration open for another 6-8 hours in case there's any stragglers, then ask Argitoth to put up the server at:

ip: 68.98.86.49 port: 1111

[Argitoth]

Server Up

If everyone was to have ICQ, MSN, Yahoo, or AIM, I could easily tell everyone when the next turn is.

For Captain Scarlett (and anyone else unfamiliar with network games) Argitoth wrote an excellent set of instructions on creating a desktop shortcut to the game here

To get started, design your pretender and connect using the shortcut. Choose your nation, and your pretender details will be automatically uploaded.

Disconnect, then reconnect periodically to see if everyone has submitted their pretender yet. When they have, your turnfile will be automatically downloaded, and you'll be able to choose the game and play your turn offline.

Then reconnect to upload you turn, etc.

I'm in ! An easy way to do the shortcut is to cut & paste the command from the topic - make sure the quotes are put on. Good luck to you all.

[Argitoth]

Heheh, it looks like no one has any messengers.

I'll just post when the next turn is here. I might move this topic to Dominions X. It's a lot easier for me AND you for when I announce the next turns.

I just tested from work and I am able to connect. I am about to leave for home and will have my prender set up in a couple of hours.

Hey is there still room for a Joutunheim..? I could go once/day to start with, but I'll be away from the computer Dec 24th-29th so would need a pause during those days -- let me know if this is OK.
