[Ramiro]

I would like to play too !

Pangaea pretender sent by email. I made a mistake with the first one (besides not setting the password) so I resent it.

Sorry about my mistakes. I warned you all I was a newbie.

Best,

[mehrunes_dagon]

sent $subj via email. And asked johnarryn a short timeout to playtest

PS I dislike this musculous low-magic nation and never played it before yesterday

Ok, so I''ve decided, due to the enthusiastic sign ups, to add 3 more people to the 12 i already had signed up. Fal, Ramiro, Cafard, welcome to the game.

At this point, please send your pretender gods to my email address, johnarryn@hotmail.com. Once I have received all pretender gods I will generate our random map and begin. You will receive your .trn file and map files, which you should place in a folder in the "savedgames" Dom3 subfolder. Please call the new folder "newhorizons."

When sending your turns to me, please use the following format for the subject "Nation - Turn X." For example "Ermor - Turn 13." This will help me to stay organized with the large number of players who are participating. Also, I don't plan to be a hardass about it, but please endeavor to have your turns in no later than 48 hours after I send them out. This will be a long, fun game, but we need to keep it moving to maintain interest.

Please feel free to engage in diplomacy in this post and privately, in character or out of character, whatever you're most comfortable with. Please keep things civil.

I would like to stress the importance of taking this game (and any game, for that matter) in good spirit. We may not always get the nation or the start we want, but that's part of the fun. I've never played Ermor before in SP, much less MP, but i'm looking forward to learning their ins and outs, and I hope everyone else in the game will approach the game with an equally positive outlook.

Now that i've bored myself to death: good luck to everyone, and have fun!

I will upload a pretender when i get home tonight around 7pm PST. (that is GMT -8)

[Cafard]

Cafardine, the T'ien Ch'i pretender has been sent.

Let it be known that i never played T'ien Ch'i, and wasn't even contemplating the idea. As such, this game will be quite a nice way to force my hand into discovering a whole new world, hopefully for many and many turns.

Good attitude Cafard! TC is a pretty solid nation from what I understand, so you should have a decent shot at it. I've already started praying for a good starting spot, since Ulm is cripplingly dependant on having one.

[Ramiro]

Pretender sent ! could you post a list with all emails and players and nations when the game starts, please?

[johnarryn]

Currently waiting on the following people for their gods:

Mictlan - Manuk

I don't see any reason to post everyone's email addresses unless they are needed for some reason. Forum messaging seems to work fine for communication. If people don't check their forum PMs very often and want me to distribute their email address when I send out turns let me know. But I will not be distributing them without the owner's permission. And if I do, it will be done via email, not a public post

Also, i've added two more people at the last minute as Caelum and Jotunheim... i'm far too kindhearted about deadlines. Anyway, these are the last people to be added, for real, seriously, etc. My inbox is getting way too crowded as it is =)

So, as soon as all pretenders are in, we will start.
