Nmid and I threw together a quick game to test gens on the new server.
We will be running a number of turns... maybe 10.
But when we are done we could let people actually play.
Everyone could see all the race designs, or only their own.
Small packed.
Races: SS, CA, IT, IS, JoaT. Some HG some -F.
Races were not tested, created in minutes, so no guarantees.
Thoughts?
Raindancer.

The Stars! player's channel has just completed moving from its longtime home of #Stars! on Starlink to ##Stars! on Freenode.
A toast! To Starlink.org, our home for over a decade.
To celebrate a new beginning and a new year, we will be having a blitz on New Year's Day 2010 at 18:00 GMT (10:00am Pacific for USsies).
Blitzes are fast-running games featuring small universes, 5-10 minute timers, and forced generations until 2440 or 2460, depending. Fights tend to start early, and be rather fierce.
We'll be running our usual tiny packed, acc-bbs, public scores universe, with 4 turn gens to 20, 2 to 40, and 1 thereafter, so make sure you're loaded for bear. If you're new to IRC, I suggest coming in early so you can get file transfer issues and whatnot sorted out before the start time.
To join, fire up an IRC client, such as mIRC, Chatzilla, or Trillian, connect to chat.freenode.net and join the channel ##Stars! (note the two hash marks and the exclamation point at the end). People tend to idle here, so responses may take some time, especially if you're between when the USsies arrive home and the Euros wake up.
I hope to see you there!
Jesus saves.
Allah forgives.

Duelling championship will start soon so if you are interrested here are some Informations for more Informations Visit the Thread in the Forum .
The rules are listed below, changes to 2007 are marked :
1. The tournament is single-elimination .
2. *Official Tournament Rules*
a. Duels will (hopefully) be hosted on Autohost if Ron agrees, and will be arranged by the Duelling Club Administrator as host.

c. All Tournament Duels will have the following Conditions: Small, Normal Universe, Acc-BBS, No Random Events, Public Player Scores (after 50 years).
d. Victory is achieved via surrender of opponent or highest score in year 2460.
e.i. Scoring is as follows :-
Seven "target" worlds will be determined by the Duelling Club Administrator (who will not host his own games ).
Each world will have a point value, as follows:
==Your Homeworld: 3 points
==Enemy Homeworld: 3 points
==Each corner & center world: 1 point each
A player must have population on a world to possess it and gain the point value.
e.ii Five of the seven target worlds will be identified to both participants. Those will be, respectively, the four worlds closest to each corner of the map and ths single world closest to the center. The Administrator's decision on which worlds is FINAL and BINDING.
e.iii. The sixth and seventh worlds will be the Duellist's Home Worlds, which will NOT be identified.
e.iv. In the event that both players have the same score (e.g. centre world not colonised), the player with the highest score generated by the Stars PPS will be used as the determinant.

(copied from Dueling Club Announcements)
*FANFARE*
Presenting...the 2005 Stars Duelling Club World Championship!
Think you have what it takes? Think you might be champion material? Can you see yourself on a Wheaties(c) box?
The Stars Dueling Club is pleased to announce the 2005 Championship. The tournament will commence in January. Regular updates will be provided. The rules are listed below:
1. The tournament is single-elimination and will consist of several rounds until a Sweet Sixteen, a Great Eight, and a Final Four are determined. The grand championship will consist of the two duellists that make it furthest in the tourney, and the champion will be declared as the winner of the final duel.
2. The tournament is open to all ranked members of the duelling club. The time between now and January 1 is the "at-large" qualifying period. Any non-ranked player wishing to participate in the championship needs to fight at least one duel between now and then. Qualifying Duels must be completed and reported no later than December 31, 2004.
3. All standard Duelling Club rules are in effect. At-large qualifying duels may be fought to any standards acceptable to both players. See below for official tournament rules.
4. *Official Tournament Rules*
a. Duels must be fought between two players. Opponents will be assigned randomly. There are no limitations to PRT or LRT.
b. All Tournament Duels must have the following Conditions: Small, Packed Universe, Acc-BBS, No Random Events, Public Player Scores.
c. All Tournament Duels must have the following Victory Condition: Highest Score after 50 years.
d. All Tournament Duels have a maximum of 2 months to complete. If a duel is unfinished after 2 months, the player ahead in score at the end of the time period is declared the winner. In the event all duels in a round are completed sooner than 2 months, the subsequent round will begin.
e. All victorious claimants *must* send a screenshot of the score page to me as verification of the victory.
f. Players that advance to subsequent rounds must use the same race name, although they may change race design between rounds. This is for the sake of validity and clarity on the elimination table.
g. Victory by surrender of an opponent must include the screenshot as well as an in-game "I surrender" message. In the event of dropout of an opponent, the victor will be declared at the end of the 2-month period.
5. The final duels will have details reported on this forum. The Grand Champion must agrees to post his or her race design to this forum as well, and hopefully will provide some commentary on his or her run at the championship.

Hi!
Looks goooood! 
And I'll usethe chance right away: I've posted announcements on the old Homeworld Forum and the NG about the new game I'm starting. By now, there are enough people interested to make it two games. But those would still have a few vacant slots. Anybody interested?
Regards
