Hello.

You want in Eden?

Full press, 20-pt, non-anonymous, WTA. 4-day phases, finalize every hour on the hour from 1600-2300 GMT. Those are my preferences. Semi-anon password protected is fine as well.

Players so far:

Draugnar
Rancher
abgemacht
President Eden

Full Press
20 point buy-in
Semi-anon passworded
WTA (unless someone objects)

4 day phase but finalize at a minimum of once an hour - flexibility if work/school gets in the way is a given. Listed hours are 1600 GMT to 2300 GMT (11AM Eastern to 6PM Eastern).

I left it at just finalizing once an hour because we'd liek to get mnore than 6 turns in on a given day if possible. For retreats and builds, they should be quicker just like in the Face 2 Face boardgame. I also wanted to keep the flexibility for those who may have something come up at work or school that takes them more than an hour of focused time. The idea is to have fun, not be a formal variant that forces strict processing times.

Oh, and it starts Monday.

If this is locked in for the options, I can create the game and abgemacht can be the last person in on Monday morning.

The "on the hour" bit was my restating of my understanding of the rules. I camp on this site in class/at work/at home, so I can be flexible about time rules.

Cool. I'll create the game this evening with a 7 day start to be safe and distribute the passwords. Please don't distribute to friends without running by me first or at least posting to this list. We want to keep a spot open for abgemacht.

Invites are in the three of yours PMs. Remember if you do give it to someone else, post who it is here and check to make sure we aren't going to get too many. I'd like abgemacht to play.

I set it to start in seven days. That gives abgemacht plenty of time to finish the week and join on Monday.

Still looking for three more, preferably from the Western Hemisphere do to time zone considerations.

*due

gosh, programmers

yeah, yeah, yeah...

if I Facebook stalk you will you be mad/creeped out/etc?

It's funny how you can hear peoples accents in their misspellings. An Australian would never mistake do for due. We pronounce it dyou.

but apparently would do "your/you're" :D

Well they sound the same, I would think for all of us. I make typos all the time. I swear I must be dyslexic.

You can't be if you spelled dyslexic right. >_>

I've never played on here before but used to love the live games using the judges and the RTnow mailing list. My schedule is kinda odd having 2 jobs, but seeing as I'm based in New Zealand my hours are all screwed up with the rest of the world anyway.

i'd love to play, but GMT and not being able to play at work (well one of my jobs at least, i could take breaks from the other to check my games...)

I was just wondering the other day if we had any kiwis in this site. There's quite a few Aussies but DunedinDave you're the first New Zealander that I have seen here.

Well, my timezone diference for eastern is 3 hours, so it will be 14 to 21 to me, and I will have to decline from this game.

Yeah, I kind of figured it would be North, Central, and South American players.

Still seeking three more who can play half hour to one hour turns between 11am and 6pm Eastern during the week.

Still looking for three daytime players!

OK, I PM'd Baskineli the info.

Still need 2 players

Current List:
Draugnar
abgemacht
President Eden
Rancher
Baskineli

I am in South America, but after 6pm I can´t play, my daughter don´t allow me :-)
Maybe next year when you are in summer time and us down here not I can play a game like this.
Anyway, good game to you guys.

But RDR, this is perfect. We are knocking off at 6pm during the week and not playing on weekends. Join us!

RDR are you sure it isn't 0800 to 1500 for you? You are in South America so it should be Eastern or earlier. What is your time difference compared to New York?

COME ON GUYS!

2 MOAR!

Maybe three. I'm not sure about Bask joining after all. He didn't understand that it wasn't a four day phase game, but was a hourly game during typical America's (North, South, and Central) work/school hours.

RDR, What is your time zone (GMT -1 is what you are indicating but that puts you in the middle of the Atlantic somewhere).
