Since Gandalf Parker didnt give us any new sign up to now,I would say that we should start the game without him,as soon as all other pretenders are in and he is the only one missing.
No big difference,having 11 or 12 players...quite crowded nontheless

Although I do not want to start the game without Gandalf (it seems this is the ideal game for him ) I do agree, if he is holding up the show we should start without him. However neither Cainehill nor Mark the Merciful have uploaded their pretender files yet.

It would be good if this would happen soon though

And I'm in. Sent an email to Gandalf, in case he did want to get into the game and wasn't aware it was about to start.

OK, I started the game. Most likely half the players will now realize they selected the wrong nation, theme, or pretender, have forgotten their password, or all four. In the unlikely event everyone's got the right stuff, the first turn will host at 4 AM U.S. Eastern time on Wednesday, unless everyone turns within the next six hours in which case it'll be at 4 AM Tuesday.

Hey, you sound like you've done this before!

Uh oh. I think I forgot my password, and was it okay to take the Carrion Dragon for Soul Gate Man?

Hmmmmm...

YellowCactus and Boron forgot their passwords. In the sense that they failed to use any. So, we are going to have to restart.

I'll reset the server. I have already the pretenders from all the other players. Only those two need to re-upload their pretender files (you'll have to make a new pretender god, with a password). Once that's done, I'll re-generate a new turn 1.

Norfleet is an unknown quantity at this point

I hope you're not just copying the 2h files, because those of us who already took turn 1 would have overwritten them.

Why? Obviously, they wanted people to be able to browse their turns and correct their orders if they were sub-optimal.
