Round 1 games 1 through 7 are complete. Game 8 appears to me moving a little better then it was previously, so hopefully it won't take too long to complete.

I've gone ahead and setup the first three games of round two. I'm in no hurry to get them started until the first round is completely done, so don't feel like you are rushed or anything. If you talk to you opponent and decide on settings, let me know and I can get you started.

Default Hello

Tiberius here. Game 7 was my first PBW game in a couple of years, and I had a good time :-) Thanks Nicolai!

The game started out slow, and I wasn't sure how it would turn out at first--Nicolai's first fleet had me outnumbered and outclassed, two ship sizes ahead. In the end I think just managed to out resource him. Overall it was a good game, and I'm looking forward to my next one.

Ahem... does blueoriontiger know that if he kicks off turn execution by uploading, that he can wait usually one minute and download the next turn?

Sorry, just getting a little anxious...

I've tried explaining this to him several times. Either he doesn't understand, or he doesn't care.

That last comment sounded a little more harsh then I intended. I also neglected to mention a third possibility, it could be that he simply doesn't have a lot of time to play, so once he does his turn he has to go do other stuff.

Another possibility is the floppy disk relay to get from SE4 at home to the internet at work. (Or some variation on the theme)

Ah, could be the floppy relay, yes. I remember I used to have to do that way back in Classic beta, when I lost internet access at home for a few weeks, and had to use school connection. That definitely sucked...

The first of the round two games is underway. The last round 1 game is still moving, but still slowly. They are up to turn 46. Woo hoo.
