Is repair after gating allowed?

What about mixed fleet minefield sweeping?

naz

Hi!

Repair after gating will be allowed.

Mixed fleets for sweeping are not banned.

Alter Ego, I emailed you a race file on the 4th but haven't received a verification back from you.

I haven't got any verification either.

Hi Blue Turbit, hi Coyote!

I have put both of you down as players, but I have not received a race from either of you yet. Check that you're not using an old email-address? The right one is:

Hi!

Quote:

Large normal universe, distant player positions.
Number of players: up to (but not more than ) 16

Any chance the universe will shrink if not full 16 players apply? Currently there are 512 stars... for what, 8 players?

BR, Iztok

Hi Iztok!

I think it's very likely that the game will fill up to 16 players. At the moment, I have 15 names on the list. Not all of them confirmed, but some have even sent a race already.

In case the number should decrease again, the size of the universe would still stay the same.

Regards,

AE

Time to move!

OK!

I'm calling for races now. As stated above, I have quite a few confirmed players and some more who are more or less interested. Tomorrow, I will send out one of my feared spam messages to players in my past games. Things usually fill up quickly then. If you want a slot, you should send me an email now.

Race file emailed twice today.
However you might get more. LOL Wireless IP service went buggy today, intermittent, had trouble getting anything completed since early this evening.

Also PM'd it to you, as insurance.

Quoting the relevant portions of the announcement:

Alter Ego wrote on Tue, 01 December 2009 13:36

If you want to join, send me a mail with a passworded racefile.

First come, first served!

Also worth considering:

Quote:

Five turns a week (Mo – Fr; 20:00 GMT) until 2440, three turns a week (Mo/Wed/Fr) after that. Right up to the end!

No breaks for holidays.

I am sightly disappointed by the lack of feedback. M. Host must be mightily burdened by RL issues for failing to reply in a week time frame...

And all I wish to do is to be able to play STARS! in my vacation time... Puppy dog eyes

Don't worry, you'll be able to do that.

Sorry for the delay, folks. Things got a little crazy during the last few days. Hopefully, they'll be more relaxed from now on.

I'm going to update my players list now and then post the results. As far as I can see, the players who have mailed me races shoould have a spot. Don't nail me on this though, it's preliminary.

Back to you soon.

Hehehe...

Actually, as it befits a doddering old fart like me, I go into absent-minded trances and often find myself in a completely different universe when coming to.

Not worrying. Smile

Hi all!

Things don't look that bad.

Hiho.

Hihumm...

Actually, they look quite good. The following players have sent files and are thus definitely in:

Abbadon

Alter Ego

Blue Turbit

Brett Etter

Coyote

David Pouliot

Eagle of Fire

Jan Wedekind

Muppeteer

NeoGrendal

Silicoids

Soobie

Steve

Threnod

Wayne Todd

I have sent mails to a further three players who were interested. The first one to send me a race file will have the 16th slot. If none of them answer within the next 24 hrs, I will send the game to Ron with 15 players.

Regards,

AE

Just make sure you use the second race file I sent you. The first one seems to have been corrupted somehow.

I emailed you my race file on the 12th, and again on the 13th. I also emailed you on the 4th indicating my interest in the game.

How am I not included?

Sorry Dude,

this happened because you used an email address that didn't identify you as "Dude" from SAH.

However, as I already told you, I will try to rustle up a second game. See the announcement here:

http://starsautohost.org/sahforum/index.php?t=msg&th=441 1&rid=17&S=fa541f35ccad026273df1ff9ba936fcd&pl_v iew=&start=0#msg_44672

I have not yet spammed my list of veteran Stars-players and will do so now. Additionally, the players of Rules & Regulations are free to join this game as well.

So hopefully, we will see this game fill as quickly as the first one.

Regards,

AE
