David and I have more or less finished our races already, but slow tech won't change too much I think. I haven't discussed it with him, but I think I can live with slow tech.

My preference is against slow tech, the W expensive is fine with me if that is what the majority wants.

I can see this dragging on for a while, so let's set a deadline for tomorrow for any new suggestions for rule changes and then we vote tomorrow.

So far we are voting on:

Slow tech
Forced W expensive

On second thought, I prefer weapons expensive instead of slow tech. Slow tech just slows all development down. Weapons expensive add an extra twist to the game. I think I like that better.

I also agree that no change should be an option for the vote.

The only modifications in the rules are none, weapons tech expensive, or all tech expensive. Right now it looks like it's going to be either none or only weapons expensive for all. So, you can probably already start on the race. However, I'm sure we'll be getting time to tweak it after the decision is made, which will be soon.

Cheers, Rolf.

Here are the votes as I see them:

ManicLurch / Rolf - W expensive
akaduda / baide - NO VOTE YET
maxfra / moronz - NO VOTE YET
LittleEddie / projectstupid - No change
Braindead / Scott - W expensive
Centaurian / Dashiva - No change

The two missing teams, please put your vote in today so we can finalize the rules and set a deadline for racefiles. Hopefully we don't end in a tie Confused

If we end in a tie for votes, I will have a third party flip a coin.

I only chose W expensive to make it quicker to sort out race designs with my partner who seems to be MIA. Previously, you indicated we'd have a week to prepare races after the teams were finalised.

Since we will have the time to sort out races, Dashiva's reappearance permitting, I'm quite happy to have W expensive.

Ok, it looks like the votes are going to be to change the rule that every player must have Weapons expensive. So final rules are:

Race restrictions, CA and IT are banned, Joat cannot take NAS. You cannot take HE factoryless. This means you cannot have factories worse than the default of 10/10/10 and no GR above 10(20). All players must have Weapons expensive

All races other than your teammate must be set to enemy. No communication with anyone other than your teammate.

No tech trading with anyone other than your teammate. Only one race per player, you can however submit your allies turn if necessary, like when your ally is on vacation, too busy at work, etc.

Other game settings are as follows:

- Distant players position
- AccBBS
- random events on
- PPS off.

Standard cheat disclaimer, which means that the following cheats are allowed:

- chaff
- split fleet dodge
- merge fleets after gating
- Mine damage dodge

Turns would be MTWTF until 2430 or someone requests a slow down. From there they would be MWF.

Condition of victory, PPS being turned on at 2500 and then a vote. If there is no clear victor, we keep playing until there is a clear victor by vote.

Universe will be medium dense.

Race deadline will be next Friday. Please email races files to Donjon. donjon1#at#gmail#dot#com

I would suggest you password protect your racefile, if you do, send Donjon the racefile and the password.
