That is very cunning Baalz, can't believe I never thought of it!

And of course Thrawn, feel free to go with whichever you prefer of mine or Velusion's servers. Both have definite advantages (I can't do direct connect hosting because of my university's firewall you see).

To be more explicit about the pros and cons - the LlamaServer gives you easier control via the web interface, while a direct connect server is obviously easier for the players to use.

direct connect is much more user friendly

I have only ever played on the llamaserver, which I think is great. Does direct connect require any specific settings on my computer? I am talking firewalls, internet settings etc, because on occasion I have to get my turns in from a work or public computer where I might not control all settings. Other than that, I have no preferences as to what server we use (although as said before, happy experiences with the llamaserver).

Let's try out Velusion's server, as people seem to be leaning towards that. Thanks for the offer, Velusion! Let me know what you need.

Let's go ahead and close up shop recruiting wise, and get things going. We have 14 players, so that gives us 7 teams. Dr. P you mentioned 16 players. Are there two that I'm missing?

If everyone is cool with it, I will random assign teams like last time, and then we can decide if we want to bid or random assign the themes.

Dr. P feel free to start on the map now that we know the amount of players at your convenience.
