SE4 by Committee Forum!
There is now a Recruitment Office on that Board specifically for signing up and finding a place in the game.
The players who have been in the game longest (or survived the longest since their Last death) would have seniority.
This would only affect who has first dibs on a job when someone gets killed or promoted away.
Unless someone bumps him off, Geoschmo has seniority, followed by Arkcon.
Geo dosen't appear to want a big job, but he will surely get a good planet to command when he wants to settle down and retire from the colony ship piloting business. Assuming he dosen't run into a damaging warppoint or an enemy cruiser on his travels.
Quikngruvn:
It is not too late at all, though the major minister slots are all taken.
I believe all the homeworlds are accounted for, but you could be a system lord, and/or move to one of the colonies that are sure to spring up in the first few turns.
Signups:
#1: Geo. (General/Colony Ship Captain)
#2: Arkcon. (Science Minister)
#3: Matryx (General)
#4: Dead meat (Defense Minister)
#5: LazarusLong (Colonization Minister)
#6: TerranC (R&D Minister)
