Default mid_Unlucky game on Gandalfs server (started)

ERA 1 (early age) game on a 200 province map (15/player)
map image

Quick Turns: on
Turn Timeout: 24 hours
rename: on
mods: none
independents strength: 5
Hall of Fame: 15
Magic Sites: 65
Master Password: xxxxxxx
automated backups: on
full web dir: game.dom3minions.com/games/mid_Unlucky
will contain rolling stats file and rolling scores.html amoung other things
Max Players: 13
no client start (but it will auto-start at 13 signups)

server: game.dom3minions.com
server IP: 63.199.8.157
game port: 9876

The last mid-sized game on my server ran for 91 turns. The "Turn Timeout" setting can be changed during the game if the players agree to it.

When you join please mention here what variable you would accept other than 13 players. What is the number of players you would accept for starting the game if it goes to Friday without 13 signups? If only 5 people have joined then would you prefer starting (40 provinces per player?) or continue waiting for more players.

edited: new check page for mid-sized games

I'm for Agartha, and six or more players is fine by me.

Joined as T'ien Chi. I've only played PBEM so far so a couple of questions:

How do I know when the game starts? This thread?
What are quick turns? I'm assuming if everyone finishes their turn it advances?
How do I know when a new turn is ready? Just keep checking or notification on this thread?

edit: even 7+ players is fine.

Looking forward to it
