PBEM is ok for me, but that would certainly disable quickhosting for getting it started...

Anyway, I'd like to play for Caelum if nobody else objects.

What map?

I would also like to join --- perhaps trying my hand at Arco again?

Using my server would be fine IMHO --- especially if everybody agrees to turn AI before quitting and the game is on quickhost.

Just say the word and I'll take the first slot that I see...

As for the map let me propose urgaia... let it be bloody!

Or we could ask Norfleet for hosting and a nice snarky name like "We're Not Dead, Just Veryyy Slow". I suggest this because it can take quite some time for one of your slots to come open, Esben - a sign of its popularity.

Well, I didn't want to hog your server for a year. But if you're in yourself, well, that'd be a great solution.

I already play two pbem games at the moment, and even as a player, pbem games tend to add micromanagement. And I rather like quickhosting, given that the time interval is big enough.

I am comfortable with Urgaia, and would choose the squishies if anyone else plays Atlantis (else I'd propose to stick to land-based nations to keep it bloody). My land-based choice would be Marignon.

There are quite often free slots, actually, they just doesn't Last very long.

Look for Glacier on the server. Since noone managed to propose another map it is current urgaia. We can probably change it :-D

11 on urgaia? Huh, that might be a bit too tight, no?

Anyway I will upload my pretender tomorrow...

Hi guys.

My parents were in a very serious car accident Last week, so I've been neglecting the game. I apologize, but sometimes you just gotta prioritize.

They are both alive and recovering. Yay!

In other news I can't connect.

Given the number of wars I was fighting, it may be that I was eliminated in the two turns I missed. ;(

Or the game could be down. port # still the same?

I still don't have time for anything, so please put me on AI, or not, if that's more fair.

marignon accidentally was not password protected so it should be easy.

Again I apologize for any alliances this snafus, but I assume I got eaten for lunch over the Last 2 turns, so the effect may be minimal.

It was quite a fun game, even if my starting position made it a tiny bit fruitless.

In other news, in less than two weeks the USA will lose even the pretense of being a democratic republic, if Monkey-Boy is "re-elected".

It's telling on the state of our political culture that the GOP/Bushies have done ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING wrong, have done nothing but create an unending series of disasters, have nothing positive to run on, and on the basis of disgustingly-business-as-usual spin+lies are still neck and neck.

Makes one wonder what it would take to get people to notice Rome is burning. And this time Nero set the fire.

Some conservatives. God help us.

Has anyone else noticed how "diebold" reminds one of "diablo"??

Off to the swing states,

Rabe
