Default Re: Is there a shortage of players for PBW?

For me, PBW would be easier to use if there were some filters that could be used in finding games.

Currently I have been looking off an on for a new game or to join as a replacement player for a SEIV Gold v 1.67 with turns being 48 hours+. Having Version and turn-rate filters would make my search much easier. As it is, I spend a minute or two a week looking at the open games. I bet that I have missed one or two games that I would have joined.

But now that I just noticed the small universe game meets my requirements, I think I'll try to join that one!

Gentlemen,

I have a desire to join a PBW game with reasonable turn delay (1/day or so). Also, I am looking for a game that would welcome an inexperienced player to PvP form of SEIV -- Gold.

Cheers!

I'll host a game soon. By reasonable do you mean "reasonably slow" or "reasonably fast"? any prefered mods?

Or you can join Home Coming , its a 36h turn game, where there are 5x 2teams.
And because you have to win as a team, your can probaly learn a lot from your team mate.

Still 6 places left.

Default Re: Is there a shortage of players for PBW?

I am only on 1.49 at present. This seems to be slowly dieing out. Oh well its my birthday soon and I have an understanding girly..

I am in one 48h game. This is my second game so I am only a beginner, my first was a 24h game and I am finding this one a bit slow.

I have a look around for games every now-and-then. My biggest turn off is little or no description. My biggest turn on is roleplaying.

I still have a lot to learn from the basic game. So I tend to go for them. If I find the premis complex or difficult to practice I tend to avoid.

While writing this I am convincing myself to go buy Gold tonight then I can give games mentioned here a go (if you will have me).
