I can play.
I've been gone for a while and need a game 
However one thing concerns me -- those victory conditions will not makre for a "fast 4 month PBEM game". It will take quite a while to achieve that.
I think simply the first player to control 3 homeworlds would be a good enough victory condition, or failing that, the player with the highest score in year X.

I dn't know how out-of-game communication could be prevented.
Secondly, what do you consider as an alliance? Would an NAp be against the rules? Would it matter whether it's a written agreement or just an understanding? Would you oppose several smaller races agreeing among themselves to attack the leading race all at once, but not necessarily owing any favors to each other?

Well since "Reality Sucks" is starting soon I think I'll call myself officially out of the running on this one. I don't wanna overburden myself with MM a month from now.
Best of luck, people.

Since I notice that the host is playing in this game, who is verifying that there are no CA or JOAT races?
If the game needs a 3rd party to verify the races and check after game start that everything is OK I can do so. I can also check turns periodically to make sure that everyone stays set to enemy.

Re: New Game - Hail and Kill
that won't work since seed numbers give different results on different computers ...
