We need few more candidates for this games.

Can you please add preferences by your name (do you want to play in the game here or or the one on playdip, phase length, date of the start). Thanks :)

I just received a message you were interrested in an interstate game(between solid to liquid to gas?). I'm Southern California, which is a state of its own. Back in the 70's, we played an internatioinal game, 7 players from 7 countries. That was good as well. So I would play if 36 or 24 hours phases. I'm also out of town in mid september, so needit to end before then because, as some of you may know, I don't pause.

i will be interested...i would prefer 36h phases, and i will not have any problem in starting in August...and i prefer to play here if possible

The Wizard (game 2 - playdip)
BESM (game 1 - webdip, anon)
gantz (36h phases, game 1 - webdip)

Few more needed :)

@Dejan, don't we only need 7 players?

I'd play in the game on this site, anon, 24hr-36hr phase, WTA

7 players plus reserves, right? I thought that was the agreement. So we are now at 7. I will be first reserve.

After compering both sites preferences I found this to be most balanced set:
We can start one of the game in the next few day and second game after players who are absent return (early August).

GAME PREFERENCES: both games are password protected

GAME ONE:
NAME: Inter-site game 1 - webdip
PHASE LENGTH: 48 hours per phase (on playdip there is option to choose from 24h and 48h, not 36h as we have here)
POT: Bet size: 5
TYPE: Classic game
WTA
non anon players (on playdip only premium members can play anon games unfortunately)

GAME TWO:
Inter-site game 2 - playdip
PHASE LENGTH: 48 hours per phase
COUNTRIES: random
STATS: ranked
DRAW INCLUDES ALL SURVIVORS: yes
GAME MAP: standard
FINALIZE: yes
TYPE: regular, classic

As soon as we agree on game preferences we can proceed to organizing the games.
Procedure will be like this: we need to elect the captain who will create password protected game here on webdip, and give that password to other two players from webdip who will play here, and to the captain of the playdip team who will forward it to 3 of his team members. Captain of the playdip team will create game on their site and share password with his teammates and captain of webdip team who will then distribute that password to his team mates who are going to play on their site.

Captain of the webdip team will have to play on webdip site so we should pick him from the players who signed to play here. As soon as Captain is elected we can create our game, that is if all players agree with game preferences.

Any comments?

This sounds good Dejan, but I now believe it would be best to make the playdip game unranked.

We can start the game from playdip at any time then. The second can start here when rdrivera returns (late July-early August).

@raphtown
Problem is that game at webdip cant be unranked so that game would influence the players statistics, and if we want for both games to have the same conditions the game at playdip should be ranked. Otherwise one game will influence statistics and other one will not. Maybe others have different opinion?

It might be, I am trying to resolve the situation with the player in question. I'll run the rest of the details by my players.

Ok, everything is cleared up, we can go through with the ranked games.

What is the issue if the game is ranked or not?

What is the player separation for both games?

I am interested and just saw this post now. So I can be in the reserves.

what is the status of this now?

Waiting for the games to start, some players could not start before a certain time.

I am back, so I can play, here or on playdip (don´t know the site, but I suppose it won´t be difficult to play there).

Created the game here, will send the link and the password for the players.

Hey, was out for the weekend.

We had said we would start in August, so I will check and see if my players are ready for an earlier start. Will get back to you shortly.

Sorry, I got a message from Dejan asking me to create the game now.
Anyway, if you want to start in August it´s completelly fine and I can just cancel the game now and create it again next week.

...and I got massage from raphtawn (I believe it was on the July 16th) in witch he mentioned that we could start one game earlier and other in the early August (because some of his team player are eager to start). What a confusion :)))

Ah well, I have two players ready to start over here. I'll give them password + game name and work on getting two more lined up (currently awaiting replies).

sinnybee and cs should be joining the game soon. I may end up being the fourth player.

And now we have WarSmith and SplitDiplomat who are going to sign up as well.

Game 1 on WebDip is underway! Here is the link: http://www.webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=64356

All 4 players from our end are in the top 10 in our rankings. Looks like you guys have quite the crew as well.

Hmmmm...

Well it looks like one of our players decided to disappear off the face of the earth right after joining. Neither I nor the rest of the team can establish contact with him. Hopefully he is alright (I doubt a player with 2 years of experience, 8th on the rankings, and in 7 active games would purposely disappear), but in the mean time we are probably going to be restarting the game and pulling another player in from PlayDip.

Can we start new game raphtown?

yes please!! but i will not able to start this weekend...sorry!
