Hmm. 15 signups for so far for the 62 nations. Methinks the megagame concept may have run it's course. Too bad, the first megagame has been a blast. I am surprised at the low turnout though. Surely, even if you are playing in other games, a new megagame is sexy enough to tempt you in.

I do not see why we want to start another megagame when the 1st one is just getting interesting. I am in turn 100 plus in alpaca, turn 60 something in epic heroes, and perpetuality.

It is a bit too much for me to undertake a 4th game atm.

Some people are mulling over their lists, plus it's the weekend...

In any case I'm cool with however many we get. We filled up the original game much to many people's surprise - so this game is just icing .

How much time is spent in these games?

I think I would like to be in, but I also think I want to be crushed say in mid game

Its just like a normal game, time wise. Only the end game takes longer.

I believe by turn 70 there are only 20 out of 62 players left in Perpetuality. So the odds are you will be well dead before the end game. I died on turn 25'ish, cause I am rubbish.

The banter at game start is fun, however, 62 voices...

Also there is no shame in letting somebody sub in for you if it gets to be too much. FWIW, I'm sure the 3-4 top players have quite a bit to manage, but being middle of the pack out of the survivors so far it's really no more effort than any other end game, and less effort than the games where I'm in the running for winning by end game.

Well KO you should play one of the races getting a boost and see how it does. Of course you will have to talk velusion in delaying the start until the patch. He has ants in his pants!
