PBEM Game: Yarnspinners 2 (Running)

Zen · #1 May 3rd, 2005, 04:45 PM

I just resent my pretender. Apparently it wasn't sent when I originally thought.

Also about the game being about winning and/or fun. My particular choice of nation with the game settings should seal the deal with I'm in it for the fun and not the winning. Ermor on very difficult research is about as much of a handicap as I can get.

My pretender chassis was chosen because of story and I kept the pretender with the best titles

.

My story will be a little slow in the beginning. As much of my backstory and coming about of the nation of Ermor has quite a bit of entwining with other nations. But don't worry I will be writing out my yarns as quick as humanly possible.

It seems like we have a pretty committed bunch here. I can certainly understand how some people might want to see their position in the world before writing too much story. I, for instance, need the names of my neighboring provinces. I would suggest we get this started as soon as everyone submits pretenders, instead of waiting for all turn zeros. We can always be a little lenient with extensions for people who need them.

I'd vote for indys at 7 rather than 9. I want my story to be event-driven, and that's harder to do if events just happen slowly.

Ok, Ive got all the pretender files, so we can start as soon as the settings have been decided.

Yay. I think the only dispute is about independent strength. Anyone else have an opinion?

Indy 7 sounds good to me, just to be different from the usual 6 or 9.

Ok with me.

As I said previously, 7 independents is fine with me.

I also vote for graphs on, which was mentioned (I think only once) upthread.

And it was well worth it, those are some awesome titles.

2.0 and 2.01 are the same to the best of my knowledge, except that 2.01 has a tidier layout; that would be logical too, as a major change would have resulted in a 2.1 version.

The topic of the thread has been changed; only the creator of the thread can do so (and mods, of course), so you could not have done so yourself Djo.

Alneyan the delayed (away today, and exams on the next two days).

Well, the latest version of the pretenders on Zens site is 2.0, so I just grabbed that one. Since nobody had an invalid pretender, we should be able to play anyway...

For the hosting schedule: Monday, Wednesday, and Friday would be easy for me. But then, if you want to write the yarns over the weekend, I wont host this first turn intil next Wednesday, so that the 3rd turn hosts on Monday.
