Hi. Am I the only one getting sick of 1- and 2-day-per-phase matches where there is little messaging because of time constraints and timezone differences? They end up turning into quasi-gunboat games.
So I've started a classic match with 5-day phases called "Walk slowly with knives". It is gameID 250406 and can be found here.
Buy in is only 15, but the required reliability rating is 90%. We don't want NMRs!
So if anyone is looking for a match where there is more than one or two messages sent per phase, and a bit of time for real diplomacy, then please join up.
Enough quasi-gunboat games! A 5-day-a-phase game for considered play

I would love to, but my rating is 88% because of 1 missed move in a game I was substituting.shudda wrote: ↑Sat Oct 05, 2019 12:26 pmHi.

Sorry about that. I didn't know that one missed set of orders had that dramatic an effect. I wasn't sure what an appropriate RR was as I havn't used the site in a couple of years, so I just guessed at 90%.BunnyGo wrote: ↑Sat Oct 05, 2019 2:33 pmI would love to, but my rating is 88% because of 1 missed move in a game I was substituting.shudda wrote: ↑Sat Oct 05, 2019 12:26 pmHi.
