Some of you may remember the games The Wheel of Life I, II and III some years ago (the last of them ended in August 2003). I had really only intended to start one game at that time, but I received rather more than the necessary number of players, so I decided to set up two more games with the same setup and rules.

In short, it is a game for 4 teams of two in a remapped universe, and one of the few games that allows TT CA races without any race restrictions - Except that there can only be one CA on each team.

The full rules can be found here: http://craebild.dk/wol.html.

I will be playing host, and I already have a teammate, so there are 6 slots left for The Wheel of Life IV. If things go like they did last time, the might well be a game V and VI, too, but I will be non-playing host in those games, then.

Players can either apply as single players or as teams. If you apply as a single player you will be teamed up with the next single player who applies, but teams are preferred, so once there are 8 teams (my team included), then any single players are out, even if they applied before the last team - But if two single players have applied then they count as a team, of course.

The game will probably start in January or February, as the teams will have to agree on races and strategy, and the third party will have to set up the game. There will of course be breaks for holidays, this is not game that will be over in a few months.

The current list of players is:

craebild (team 1)
rolfverberg (team 1)
Dashiva (single player, needs a teammate, is at GMT+2 or GMT+3)
bretter (single player, needs a teammate, is at GMT-6)
jagophile (team 3)
Scorpius (team 3)
owteufel (single player, needs a teammate, is at GMT+1)

As I am playing host, I will need a third part to do the race checking, remapping, homeworld moving, 50 year forced gen and check for wayward comets. I can supply the necessary utilities, batch files, game.def file and instructions to do the job, though at least one of the batch files will have to be edited by the third party, as I obviously should not know the passwords for the races of the other teams.

The third party might also be called to judge any disputes between players, but there was no need for that in The Wheel of Life I, and I did not have to make any judgement calls in The Wheel of Life II or III.

Any comers for that third party position ?
