And the port...

Just read the thread - it's there.

Yes! Cainehill is very right. I probably should have renamed the game to prevent this. I will be more careful in the future.

The server is benatar.snurgle.org port 2000. Alternatively, you could go back and actually read the thread instead of waiting for me to do it for you.

Reverend Zombie, we are missing your turn. I don't want you to stale on turn 1, and I know you are generally around, and (technically) have had less than 24 hours, so I will give you a little while to get turned.

Despite the title of the thread, I turned on quickhost for this turn, that way we can get moving. Once we get things going I'll switch back to 24-hour mode.

People we really need to get our act together here. I will stop having mercy on laggards and bunglers soon!

Mea culpa.

I went from being one of the first to upload my Pretender, to the first turn laggard.

Sorry!

I won't be able to take my turn till I get off work in 6 hours or so.

Just some thoughts....
I'm still quite new to Dominions (Had the game three weeks). But I have to say I'm impressed by the strength of the community. You guys work really hard to network these games, and I'm anitcipating a fine role-playing experience! That said, while I don't expect anyone to pull any punches, everyone is welcome to message me (In character or Out of Character) with advice, critisizm (however it's spelled) and offers of game knowledge. I've already had the pleasure of learning about Passwords, so if there are any other events that can be avoided by experience, send me a line.
Thanks,
YellowCactus

Our game will be ,at least in theory,not an easy one for newbies.
We have a small map with quite a lot of people starting all from land positions(no water nations).This means,that everyone will encounter several neighbours quite fast.
Also we have some experienced players in here.
So you should most likely expect to learn a lot about early warfare and such

Maybe you will learn it the hard way,but hey,everyone had to learn it somewhere in the past.

I agree, this will be a quite cramped game with lots of combat, although not, I think, more cramped than the developers originally intended.

I'm not sure it will be necessarily harder than a big map. You will just find out if you are losing, sooner
