That said, if he's up for me playing, let's make it anonymous.

At first I thought you are just kidding and making a bit fun of orathaic pretending you didn't understand what he meant. But then I understood that you weren't kidding at all. Stupidity is infinite...

I don't carry grudges, Tru. And FirstApple is a good guy and an easy mark too. :-)

reinking, emperormaximus, orathaic, Draugnar?, FirstApple, Tru Ninja.

i'm not too convinced that anon is worth it. I mean, Tru you could always tell everyone that Draug 'has it in for you' and use that to build an alliance against him, and 1stApple you could equally play upon your 'n00b' status and us it to gain confidence of others...

Draug, are you in or out?

I'm in if non-anon and no less than 24 hour phases (although I'd prefer 48 right now). Oh, and keep the cost uder my present 88 .

I prefer 48 hours as well. really busy schedule outside the world of diplomacy (if there is such a thing)

Good to hear you don't hold grudges Draug. I didn't put you as the type anyhow. I consider us friendly rivals in terms of GR.

i'd like to be in too, considering myself not a noob but i never did actually...
only made small msitakes and i always play on, even when it's lost for me, i hate it when people CD...

@Tru - YEah, ruivals for GR is a good way of putting it. Although I just took a defeat that could cost me even more spots and am on the ropes in another game...

Orathaic - I generally do like to have people underestimate me in my games..., I find it works to my advantage.

reinking, emperormaximus, orathaic, Draugnar, FirstApple, Tru Ninja, steephie22

Excellent, that is 7.
i don't like to play less than 25hour/phase, but i also prefer faster games if possible. However Tru ninja, if you can manage a 36 hour/phase game then i'll be happy with the middle ground. (though i'd like to see some finalizing to save us on time, especially when only one or two players have a retreat, i hate hanging around for 36 hours for a single retreat...)

Assuming is happy, i will pm the password and link. 25 , just to keep those with few points available happy.

Sounds good to me. 36 hours and 25 and I'll finalize on retreats and builds as long as the timing is good. Weekends can be bad for me with the new house of course, but I still find time to do some diploming and not NMR. Ever.

i hope there is no more confusion :p

ok, cool, i've now got two games to entertain me, ideally starting this week, i love you guys!

I love that password, orathaic

i know, originally i had something else... but when i realised i could use that i couldn't resist changing it.

yeah, awesome password...
to be fair i didn't expect i'd be allowed but i'm in people!!

I thought it was an encrypted password personally

i thought that the very first second but then i copied and pasted it and i was in!! :)
btw, we shouldn't tell much more baout it, to easy to guess then...

it was an encrypted password... but then i changed it to the mask...

i'm not too worried about someone guessing the password, we agreed to play with reinking, if someone else uninvited joins then they may find themselves thrown into CD and the game paused... for their rudeness... right?

still boring and it might destroy the game if the one joined wants to stay...

That's the beauty of playing with a mod, right? LOL

but how about the points-investment?
not that i'm out when there is no but do we all get 25 now or do i see that wrong?

@steephie

I think you're still confused.

The pot is 25 . You aren't getting 25 ...


orathaic, why are you so cryptic? : )

cryptic? what was cryptic? apart from passwords...

i suppose i'd like to play with someone who is smart enough to figure out the password (hacking into a private game :) )

though i suppose a mod might use other means, eh abge?

abg, ok, wasn't that confused, thought he meant something else "willing to invest points" then "if you have only 20 we play with a pot of 20", wouldn't call that an investment, more the other way around...

@orath

I kid. I've understood perfectly everything you've said, but everyone else seems to be horribly confused.

thought he *might* have meant something else...

yeah, when i said 'points' i might have meant something like this: http://www.ksartifacts.info/2A%20 /ph01%20Native%20made%20metal%20 .jpg

but i didn't...

get a working link...

lol at the d symbol
