Alpaca: 10 player game to test new server(started)

[Tyrant]

The obvious answer for next time is to start with a 3 hour blitz. Cultilvate serenity Dr. P.

I check the site, it's the key feature of the set up IMO.

I can host the game for a blitz. let me know. cable connection, decent machine, and i have forwarded port and am actually hosting a blitz 1 on one game right now.

Maybe some time this weekend I can host(you need to transfer me the files and help me set it up) and we can do a 3-4 hour blitz with 5 min time limit per turn.

I would not actually time it, but if one person is taking 10 minutes longer than the rest, we may have to ask him to speed up a bit.

I check the site. That way I can see that I'm one of the last people to take their turn. And that is precisely the issue for me. While I can see the appeal of a blitz session I don't have time for them. Once every 24 hours I can get a turn in. But, to schedule a specific time to play for a few hours? No. And, whether it were IP or PBEM that wouldn't change. Thanks for hosting, llamabeast.

Yes, I think a blitz will have to be a suggestion for a future game rather than something we can do for this one. The chances of finding a time we could all do would be pretty minimal. Myself I visit my girlfriend at the weekends / she comes here, and while she actually quite likes Dominions (to my great surprise) I think a blitz might be pushing it.

I see you staled, RZ. Hope it wasn't due to any kind of technical issue.

I definitely submitted turn 2--did you get that one?

If we're talking about turn 3, my stale would be because I forgot to check my email before I went to bed last night.

Yep, turn 2 was received fine - hopefully you'd have got a receipt e-mail when you sent your turn in? But turn 3 I think you staled.
