Good luck getting a game.

In addition to the few I mentioned earlier, VillageIdiot comes by from time to time, but hasn't played press for a while. Worth a shot, maybe.

In the meantime, if anyone can find there courage, drop your name below and we will see if you are qualified enough to join.
I suspect I'm not qualified enough to join (not enough press games here) but for some weird reason am feeling extra sassy today and as such would be willing to give it a go. Plus, I own actual, real life goats so that's gotta be worth something, right?

To be fair, looking at your stats. Your just as qualified as this JECE fellow.

Perhaps while we are waiting on the Ultimate Showdown. The GOAT could do some work for charity. As a star, I really should do more for the community I suppose.

How about a game for the, shall we be polite and say, less qualified people?
Give the Peons a shot at greatness?
If we have a few more brave souls, we could make it happen.

Doug - I respect your bravery
Can we get a few more?

Ginge86: Sounds like you want your loss to be even more humiliating! But don't worry, you're already losing at the only game that matters.

Jamiet99uk: The Victoria gambit? That's risky when Australia is impassable. But I admire your dedication to eliminating Ginge86 before 1901!

I'll sacrifice three supply centers (Sol, Luna and Terra) to to build a secret lab under the Caspian Sea.

If you're doing one for us less good players, I'll throw my hat into the ring. See if you're all you claim to be.

Getting the GR you have on public, low-bet games is actually pretty impressive. After about 200, when you have a bunch of low-ranked players in the game, even 3-way draws won't increase it much if at all, and 4-way or more draws will harm it. And there tends to be a lot of randomness in games with really bad players since someone or some people will inevitably do something incomprehensible, delivering an insurmountable bonus to someone across the map. GR has a lot of flaws, but getting a score that high is still commendable.

The current basketball coach at my college alma mater has a public philosophy on opponents - "We'll play anybody, anyplace, anytime. It doesn't matter, morning, noon or night, and it doesn't matter who it is."

I kinda like that philosophy.

If we can get it started soon I'd be down for a lowly peasant game. Still before school year started for me so I have time, and I'd like a game with a bit less drop-outs and mis-orders.

This seems intriguing enough. I'd be willing to join if the phase length is right and I meet whatever standards apply here.

What sort of length of phase you looking at? Only new here (having just picked up one (as always) hopeless) replacement spot to help a game along, but played a little over the years. Always love a good press game.

It appears JECE is too scared to play?
Does the GOAT intimidate that much

Had that name a long time before it was used as an acronym. A real long time!

I'm far too low ranked to be a contender, but I'll play as GPT-4 if allowed. I'll feed it the orders list each turn and let it make all the strategic decisions, I'll feed it the press and have it respond. When it's all over I'll post my full conversation with GPT for anyone interested. Let's see if the best of WebDip are ready for the robots.

No cowardice is involved. If a flea challenges an elephant, the elephant will ignore it. It is not that the elephant is afraid. It just ignores the little thing; same here.
