Right Saturday is supposed to be the deadline. The noob team though is also currently trying to find a replacement for unoptimized and soon otherwise the start will be delayed.

Thanks for the input. Ahh, I always get excited when I see a potential fresh green noob for our game. Have no fear though,I'd like to have you as a noob alternate, this may give you a chance to sample a team game, without commiting yourself the whole game.

Uh, sure, I suppose I could be an alternate (sorry, had jury duty yesterday so i was a little slow seeing this).

I'll have to go check out how fast you expect us to take turns, but I'll warn you that weekday evenings are actually better for me than weekends at the moment, so hopefully if/when i have to step in we're at 1 turn/day or something.

Glad to have ya on board, I think you'll find our turn times quite leisurely. Though we may need ya sooner than I had anticipated as we need a starter for Shinuyama at present. If I don't hear back from our alternates soon, you might need to step in.

Hmm.. i guess i should try a SP game as Shinuyama to see what that entails...

The time per turns - 32 hours / first 10 turns. That's 32 hours per turn? I think I can handle that.

Hey, squirreloid, welcome to the game. Since it seems likely that you will be playing for unoptimized rather than subbing this game, you should probably head on over to the noob forum and sign up. You will initially not be able to see anything interesting. After I see that you have signed up I will enable you to see the planning forum for this game. There's quite a lot of discussion in there now, so if you want to read it all it may take a while. I don't think anyone expects you to read all of that, but you will need to post there at least when nations start filling out so there is no inter-team bumping. Of course, they would prefer more.

rdonj · #**396** June 26th, 2009, 04:35 AM

You're in.

Squirrelloid · #**397** June 26th, 2009, 09:36 AM

Ok, I'm sort of assuming I'm in for Unoptimized. Could you confirm Septimius?

Also, I've never played a MP game before - how do i get you my pretender file?

atul · #**398** June 26th, 2009, 09:45 AM

Look into your dominions directory. There should be a directory named savedgames and in it, directory newlords. If you create a pretender in the game with Game Tools -> Create pretender, that file is saved into directory newlords as a .2h file with name of the nation you've created a pretender for.

If you've got only one pretender created for that nation, all is fine. If you have several pretenders, you need to remember pretenders are saved in chronological order (mid_shinyuama_0.2h, mid_shinyuama_1.2h, the last being the latest), UNLESS you've deleted old pretenders before.

Your in for Unoptimized. A link to the Llamaserver FAQ is now included on the opening post of this thread, though Atul has covered what you need to know in previous posts I believe as well.

We're still waiting for 3 people.

What do we do if there are other n00bs who signed up and have since simply vanished? Could everyone who has not sent in a God check into the thread to verify that you're still alive?
