I think you may have at least 5 players  as I sent my request to join this game after I had seen it on The List.
One little thing, I haven't sent any race-file yet (figured I'd wait until I knew more about what size and density would be used). If I'm holding up the game or something just throw a kick in my direction.

No problem. You're already part of the game list. I'll let you know when to send the file. I've been pretty lazy about reposting so far.

Also, changed to high intermediate or better since advanced+ will likely never get any players. Basically, 25k by 50 in a test shouldn't be an issue. Best if you've managed to get above 50k by 50 at least once.
|
Better yet, 50k by 50 with Slow Tech and NO AccBBS. Better yet, 50k by 50, slow tech, no accBBS, in a REAL game (medium universe or smaller, more than 2 players). Anybody can brag about such an achievement?
Just curious.

Most over 50k by 2450 races are usually flawed for real play. The explanation was probably meant to avoid cluelesses who cant handle even basic economy management. Its uninteresting to fight with these since their military management is even worse. 
|
This should be doable for CA, JoaT, IT, and HE.
I've only ever bothered to do it w/ CA and Joat though. My max w/ CA is 172k (iirc) by 50 w/ acc BBS (50k by 43 wasn't an issue ). W/ a design I would consider using in a real game, w/ W-cheap, I've hit 115k by 50 in a small packed test. Best w/ joat was around 90k by 50. All test beds have been done w/ acc BBs. Most games I play are slow tech though.

An Update:
>I would like to participate. It will take me a day or two to get a race file to you - is that OK?
A day or two is fine.
>Are you still looking for players and what is the approximate start date? (also when do you need races by ?)
yup still looking, and we start as soon as everyone's race file are in.
Current player list/order is:
Player order will be: (race file in)
1 Gakl
2 ammoncircuits (in)
3 Sven (in)
4 Bret
5 Mario (in)
6 Bretter
7 Serge(in)
Currently the game specs will are:

For those yet to send me race files or who wish to resubmit their race file, please include the following line in your email:(with the appropriate substitutions of course)

It was posted to The List twice dunno about rgcs.
The game is due to start as soon as I get all the race files, which I suppose means when the current players have had enough of waiting for new players. But I doubt they'll mind waiting a couple of weeks.
Reminds me tho...I should make sure the players I do have race files for are still in and haven't given up waiting and gone elsewhere.

Another one for the grinder!
Welcome Pierre
Great response from the roll call, everyone is still playing...Just need a few race files. See Below.
Robert may also wish to play, if his current games finish in time/we take long enough to start.

Two thoughts, one: we can wait for him before we start. or two: since its the beginning of the game, and he probably knows already everything he'll want to be doing, I'm happy to enter his orders for a few(<6) turns, given precise instructions. Something like:
2400:set research to 0%,Elec.Queue 100 factories,autobuild 50 mines, design "Rover" (frigate,IS10,3 heavy mines,dolphin scanner).
2401:Queue 3 Rovers,Genesis Device
2402:...
Current player list/order is:
Player order will be: (race file in)
1 Gakl
2 ammoncircuits (in)
3 Sven (in)
4 Bret
5 Mario (in)
6 Bretter

Oh goodie. Now I'll have more opportunity to change my mind another 10 times on my race file and PRT. Don't be alarmed if you receive a random flurry of files from me.

(edit insert) Just saw your post to War of the Worlds. I can't let you play in No Impact. Sorry but this game is for Intermediate+ players only and however skilled you are against the AI, I can assure you that human opponents are a whole different ball game. Good luck with WotW tho (/edit insert)
In reply... Below is what I just sent this out the the players. Perhaps I was slightly premature, because if you're not the new player "Alpha Stars" then the game parameters will shift to:
Small, *Dense*, Distant, Slow Tech, NO Accbbs, Galaxy Clumping, PRIVATE scores, NO RANDOM Events
If you're not Alpha Stars I suggest you email me a race file ASAP and be sure to include a line like this in your email:
Player # - Preferred Name - Race Name - Email address - password
Its a race between your race file and the two passwords I need to start the game!  Nah...I'm sure they won't mind waiting a few extra hours.

I HAVE ALL THE RACE FILES!!!!!!!
*prod* *prod* Just waiting for Alpha Stars and Bret Choitz to send me a line like this:
Player # - Preferred Name - Race Name - Email address - password
The email address you supply will be the one that I submit to autohost (the one autohost will use to send you turn files or notifications.) It can be different from the one you send me the race file from.
Welcome to our last and final play Alpha Stars, in position 9 Sic 'im boys!
