Thank you for creating a game. I have a suggestion. Unsigned players join created llamaserver games from time to time, not of ill-will, but because they are newbies and unaware they need to sign the game before joining it. Placing a message like: "Please don't join this game unless you signed for it on shrapnel forum. If you want to play - visit http://forum.shrapnelgames.com , games are created regularly. Good luck. " on the game page could add an extra level of protection.

to @ll
Please make sure you created your pretender under CBM 1.6 and double check pretender file you are going to send. I haven't played a single game which wasn't restarted because someone messed up with his pretender, and I would really like to have an exception.

Wonder if llama knows that specific info about the renaming settings doesn't appear during the "waiting for Pretenders stage"?

Maybe I can send an email to llamabeast re. this. Perhaps later when I have some spare time.

Oh and thanks for the instructions and tip. I posted your message WingedDog.

It's a big game. 24 players. It will take a while for everyone to get their pretenders in. But, indeed, I would hope for an early week start of the game.

18/24.
last six players, please send your pretenders.
Take your time, there's just 18 players waiting for you

reminder (thanks WingedDog):
Please make sure you created your pretender under CBM 1.6 and double check pretender file you are going to send.
Also make sure you got a confirmation email from the server that it got your pretender.

Later today I'll send out reminder PMs to anyone who has not already sent in their pretender.
