Is it reasonable to expect significant relationships (i.e. familial ties/relationships outside of SAH) to be declared in the "new game" thread?
Or at least to the host and other players?
If they don't want you to know, you won't.
In many respects it is no different from playing in the same game with a good friend. But you're less likely to back stab a good friend!
Has anyone out there allied with someone in a game because they've done so before and have good relations? What about because you've become friendly with them.
Two issues seem to be causing a problem.
Pre-planning - it doesn't take two parties:
If I know CCMaster is going to be in a game where he is permitted to play his infamous HE race and I am so minded, I should build an IT race with left shifted rad to be the perfect partner.
Instant communication:
Unless you're living in the same house, then its much the same for everyone if you're prepared to make the effort.
Just stirring the pot a little.
