basically a smarter AI game... with AI's not set to ally with each other.
No communication, no tech trading, no alliances, no crying wolf.
edit - Not talking about Milky way, but the other game being hosted by Neil. ( Fast and Silent )

heh..
Single winner, winner by consensus.
Host will be looking at the turns and will probably call for a vote between 2480-2500.
After that, the voting will decide if the game goes on or not.

That is unnecessary and unwanted. We can figure it out on our own. Just set the PPs to activate at 2500.

I always like active players..
Let me clarify:
I'll look at the turns and
A> if I want, I'll suggest a vote.
B> if the players want, they'll say yes or no (in more colorful language).
Consensus refers to a 5/5... that is everyone has the veto power to refuse to end the game and continue to play on.
The last man playing is the guy who wins.
Not too tough, is it?
Don't want to put in too many terms and clauses... so it's very player dependent.
Anyways, could add one condition .. no vote till 10 years have passed from the earlier vote.
I was just keeping the option open for me to call a vote.. but I don't HAVE to call for a vote.
To be frank, the longer the game goes on, the happier I am.
Any player can anyway call for a vote when the PPS turns on in 2500..

neilhoward wrote on Fri, 28 June 2013 10:40I am fine with the current race file deadline if everyone else is. If any of the first 5 players needs time to tweak their race based on a 6th player joining, I think they should get at least a 3 day extension. It is a small change so it should not be a big issue, but we want to be fair considering we were planning on a week to test their races based on the expected number of players. I will email Adam, James, and Victor to let them know there is a 6th. nmid, if you have Tomasoid's email, please send him a direct update (otherwise I will send him a pm).
Will do.
I would prefer if we stick to the deadline, if no one requires extra testing time, as that will allow me a sunday to gen all the universes and finalize the selections.
Doing it on a weekday is tough for me.
However, if any player does require extra time, we can extend the race deadline.
(edited out player list, see last post for update)

Ok.. Deadline extended to 3rd July.
However, the sooner I get the races, the more time I get to gen the universe
