Default Re: PBW \"newbie game\"

I'll hang in there for now, it's not taking much time yet, but maybe in a week or so if playing 4 games at once gets too hectic, I'll drop ot of the one-planet start (newbie I) since that will take longest. I'll let you know if someone needs to take over.

Spoogy, you mentioned your work hours, but what time zone?


Myself, I am on Eastern time, have 24/7 Internet conn, and usually near PC between noon and midnight. So if an email comes in with the next turn I'll hear it and have my next turn uploaded within (usually) 30 minutes.

My major gripe with Sim games is that you can't save your turn. When you start playing your turn, you either finish it and send it in or cancel and start from beginning of turn. That's annoying if your waiting on email from other players about trades/treaties...I usually end up penalizing the tardy eMailers (and ultimately myself) by sending in my turn anyway so I can get back to my solo game vs AI.
