Hehe Papabear,
Actually, this isn't really a good game to start with when you never played before against live opponents.
First encounters will happen from year 1 on. It will be very fast paced. HW will be seperated less than 100 ly from eachother.
You won't have much time to learn, coz the other players will interfere that much that you won't have that much room for mistakes.
I am not trying to disappoint you, I really encourage new players to enjoy this magnificent game as much as possible. I just warn you, that this might not be a good choice as a game for a new player.
Wish ya lots a strength and we'll sure meet in QAR.

Oh, btw when you have a slot free on the Autohost, it just takes a few hours for the host to get a good univ genned and he hands them over to Ron. A day, 2 days, ... something like that. Expect this game to start half next week.

Cya
Gunter

Heheh - I'm not hoping for an easy time. I like being dropped in the deep end makes for more fun trying to learn to swim when the sharks are shooting at you with low tech weapons hehehe

I'm looking forward to the challenge. Hopefully I won't be too easy pickings

Okay we're going ahead with 14 players!

Here's the names. I tried to do these in no particular order after recent discussion of player number advantages. Now that I look, Raindancer's up the top - hmm... but I've sent the files off already so the game will be starting shortly!


Player 1: Raindancer The Oops
Player 2: PapaBear The Kossava
Player 3: EDog The Zig
Player 4: OOMatter The BOB
Player 5: Gunter The Rangers
Player 6: djhakase The Kurtzers
Player 7: Ken The Monks
Player 8: JamesWD The Thargoids
Player 9: Bill The Plural Gumby
Player 10: Micha The Farm
Player 11: Paul The Pizzans
Player 12: Iztok The Tresk
Player 13: Gible The Orribles
Player 14: The Taubat The Borg


Ken asked for his turns to be emailed to him. If anyone else would like their turns emailed send an email to me (with your race name) and I'll send it right along. Tom's got all the email addresses with all the races so...

Because the numbers have been reduced from 16 to 14, the victory condition is going to be to squish 7 other races into the ground But least with Non-BBS start races should survive for at least 10 turns?! I hope?!?!

There should be a forum opening up pretty soon; I've put a request through to Ron. Let's hope that everyone gets through this Quite All Right!!!

Now you did that on purpose!! This will only flatter his ego even more! It's bad enough that he usually out ranks me in our team games and now he even gets to start as #1!

Let's get the private forum open and the propaganda mill started!

Hi all -
I know you're itching to go and take out some other races, but Ron's told me he's pretty busy at the moment and that he'll get on to setting up QAR once he has some time.

In the meantime keep practising those OWW testbeds!

Game started (finally). Topic locked.

Btw, no special privileges for flattery
