There has been a question about universe gen parameters. I will resolve that question first, then PM the eight players above. If all are still in, I'll then set a due date for races.

I'll check files and gen (prefer it if you can produce the top of a .def file for me)


Could you tell all about your plans for the universe gen? Are you looking at player positions to make sure no huge advantage or disadvantage?


I'm guessing you are worried about relative crowding and spacing of the start locations.

I did not have any special gen rules in mind. Do you want to define some reasonable and simple rules that won't be overly difficult for XAPBob to adjudicate?

How about HW mineral concentration of 30 or more? Yes concerned about decent starting position for all players. I don't know of any simple rules. The person doing the gen need to make a judgement call. Look at starting planets and make sure no large gaps or totally boxed in player positions.

I'll make the distribution OK.

I'd probably run with the first set of planets where the distribution was OK, unless there is a real desire for either high middle or low hw minerals...

That seems the most sensible. If you will make sure the starting locations are reasonably equitable, we'll take whatever the HW minerals happen to be.

It slipped my mind, too, believe it or not, probably because in the other game I'm playing (Homeless), we don't start with a HW.

... And I went thought every planet scanned report to figure out which planet had the minimum HW concentrations and identified all 7 of them Razz

Btw, just another small point..all hws have the same mineral concentrations.

I know my minefields.. but I'm a chaff sweeper.

Excellent. I've listed you as the first alternate. If you don't get in this one, I'll gladly run an advert for a second game and host that one as well.

XAPBob will verify races and submit files to Ron.

We have all eight confirmed, with an additional can-play-now alternate and two more can-play-later enthusiasts. Very Happy

Please finalize your races and submit to XAPBob no later than Saturday April 13th.
Remember to password your race and include your password when you submit to XAPBob.

One final matter: random events Twisted Evil , or no random events Sleeping ? Please register your preference here. Majority will determine the setting. I am abstaining.

 That is four votes in favor of random events being on. With myself abstaining, four votes carry the day.
