Gentlemen,
I have exchanged a few PMs with LittleEddie and Iztok, and it looks like we have a solution.
LittleEddie has agreed to host the game (instead of playing it). This would now mean we have one more slot free, and the new entrant may take Eddie's pick of SD, or choose from all remaining PRTs (which, at the moment, are SD, HE and CA).
The first interested candidate to post here (together with his PRT choice) can take the spot and start preparing his race. I'd say he should get one-two weeks for playtesting, then he should send the racefile to Iztok for verification. Once that's done, Iztok or LittleEddie will do the setup (they can arrange that between them) and the game, hosted by LittleEddie, can start - I expect February to see us rolling already.
Comments / additions / objections, anyone?

Too bad Little Eddie had to give up place but glad the problem solved. If replacement does not like SD, HE, or CA they could choose JOAT as well. In that case I would take SD. I have a race ready just in case.
Who is going to be the quick draw

Hi!
I did agree to make the game set-up. I'll try to make a fair one (evenly spread-out players and no HW with only 10 stars within 2 W-9 jumps). No promises with minerals tho.
So, gentlebeings, you have 6 days to send me your final races. I expect them until the end of the next week, so I'll have time over the weekend to find a proper uni "seed" for the game, and send files to Ron around 18th of this month.
Is this OK with you?
BTW I can host the game until the end of February, but then my RL workload will significantly increase, and I'd rather turn over my hosting to someone else.
BR, Iztok

Hi1
> So does this mean we no longer need a replacement or are you giving replacement shorter play testing time?
This means you please keep looking for replacement host, because I can not guarantee I'll be a carefull host starting February.
Consequently LittleEddie can play, if he wishes so.
OR, just ask for longer game start delay, to find LittleEddie's replacement.
BR, Iztok

Hi!
Player Kicks claims to have problems accessing AH. Will try to resolve the issue while waiting for Ron to put game on AH.
EDIT: game def file and race files just sent to Ron.

nitrah wrote on Tue, 19 January 2016 18:05I have never played a game through autohost.
Could someone kindly provide me a link with directions how to do so?
Once I wrote a small introduction for beginner games, perhaps it is of help:
up-/downloading orders - Stars files - Stars shortcut
At that time the gamename was "admiral", so if I refer to this in the description just exchange it with whatever approbiate
