Someone has to, why not you? Otherwise everyone in that list is going to be waiting for someone else to make it. Plus you're in the number 1 position in that game.

Chrispy, how 'bout you take the lead, I've managed to screw things up terribly!! ;-)

I very much like the idea of playing with you, djbent and Rait. The rest is up to you, just let me know what we're doing and I'll join in the fun... Thanks, and sorry again to all for the poor approach to creating a game, I meant well, but intentions can be worthless at times...

i can agree to that. chris, make the game and i'll join. i'd love to play with you, MM, Rait, fortknox, and whoever else.

I would love to join. Please add my name to the applicant's list.

I want A GAMEEEEEEEEE

Alright. How about WTA, 25 hour phases, 101 as the bet?

Currently we have:

Chrispminis
MadMarx
djbent
Rait (I'm assuming since you said you can't turn down an invitation)
wooooo
Babak (You expressed interest, you still in?)
Dunecat

I'll start the game when I get confirmation from Rait and Babak. If you have any requests let me know, but otherwise, it looks like we have our 7.

confirmation

i'm online and ready for when it starts.

If babak isn't interested, I've thrown my name in the hat a while ago...

My preference is 36 hour phases. I'd even be happy with a compromise, 30 hours? Ultimately I'm cool with 25 too, but a little more would be nice in my opinion...

Thanks Chrispy!

i'm cool with 25, 30, 26, 32 and a 1/2 length phases, whatever. 101 pts is good too.

7 hours?

let's do it! and play with fortknox since babak hasn't spoken up. i'm ready for a new game to start =)

i'll be there.

so i guess we'll just wait on Chrispminis to start it. =)

i'd prefer 36 hrs too if possible ... 25 is just a tad short for good diplomacy if someone has to be gone for a full day which happens from time to time.

also - didnt fortknox express interest before Dunecat? just saying...

lemme know when it starts.

did this start?

i think we're waiting on Chrispminis to start it. at least, i am.

I also prefer longer phases. 36- or 48-hour phases are great for people who like to take their time, or have to take care of real life in between moves.

Also, please make the buy-in at least 101. I don't care if it's PPSC or WTA.

"If babak isn't interested, I've thrown my name in the hat a while ago..."

Ooff. I somehow forgot fortknox! Ugh. Now this is a tough decision rife with opportunity for social faux pas. Dunecat, to be fair, fortknox did enter first. I'll flip a coin, heads is fortknox, tails is Dunecat.

...

And it was heads for fortknox. Sorry Dunecat, I had trouble counting. My bad. =(

Ok, I've created the game. It's called: "An Offer You Can't Refuse" and the password is: "corleone"

Alternatively, you can just use this easy join link (removing the www if that's your style):

Do not go to that link unless you are on this list:
Chrispminis
MadMarx
djbent
Rait
Babak
wooooo
fortknox

It's 30 hour phases, 101 points, WTA. Hope that's good with everyone.

If there's a drop-out, priority goes to Dunecat if he'll still join us.

joint that joint

joined.

waiting on Rait and fortknox.

Mr. Knox may not know he got it, I sent him a message in another game we are playing together, so he should join up... but I hope Dunecat is watching, if it comes down to the wire we don't want a CD Italy...

soooo... Rait - the reason this game was even put together - might not end up playing in the game?

Easy big fella, Rait said he isn't glued to the forum in the summer, I'm sure chrispy let him know it's time to join...
