Would it be full press or a gunboat?

get that gunboat garbage outta here :P

I'm not a fan of gunboat. This will be full press, classic map. Anon/non-anon is up for debate (I prefer anon, myself).

So far I have:
fortknox
rdrivera2005
mapleleaf
bartdogg42

I don't want to make a GR specific game... just prefer those with GR < 100

As I am running a little low on points please don´t make it too high (anything under 500 should be fine).
I prefer anon, but it´s not a big deal and I think 36-48 hours should be fine.

If it's anon I'm interested, if you'll have me.

Damn... good looking group there so far FK. I'd love to join, but am stretched thin in high stress games as it is:)

silly question : WTA or PPSC? (gr=48)

I'm not sure what my GR is, but if you have room for one more I'd be in. Let me know if I qualify. If you'll have me my vote is for Anon as well.

WTA or PPSC?

WTA, at least if I am supposed to play, as I don´t play PPSC.

I would like to play - GR is not quite there yet, but hopefully no resigns in 60 games can compensate a bit for that :)

If you're not adamant about having an exact list of who has joined the game, feel free to send me the info to join, and I might sneak in... I do have those other three games of people I haven't played with that much, so maybe I can take on one that is a little more familiar (though I'm sure I won't be able to figure out who anyone is, since I suck at that).

Sorry I wasn't around much over the weekend. I don't do PPSC, since the game usually ends in someone helping someone else solo for the points, which leaves a terrible taste in my mouth...

How does this sound: 400 pot, anon, 48 hour turns?

Indy/Kalel/PerOlander.... I know Kalel has the points, but Indy/Per, you guys willing to drop a good chunk of your points on this game?
Kalel, you have 2 resigns. I know you probably are asked about them often, but can you give me info? NMR's and CD's aren't acceptable in a high pot/high stress game.

I am willing to drop all my points if required, I dont play that many games at once :) 400 is fine by me, that leaves a bit for the live games!

WTA, 400 , anon, 48 hour turns:
fortknox
rdrivera
mapleleaf
bartdogg42
ivo
Per Olander
Indy/Kalel... one of you jump on it, or is there someone else from the peanut gallery that wants in?

Pass on me, but thanks, fort. My experience in PPSC is different than yours, and I'm not good enough to play with the big boys of WTA :)

I would like in on this if the last spot is still free.

Indy, WTA isn't that much different, just ends in draws instead of solo's. But I won't force you :)
Lando, I know you are a good guy and good player, but can you explain the 17 resignations??

I can try. I'll start by pointing out I have never resigned a non-live game. Also, probably more than half of them were in my first month or so playing games on the site. Otherwise, there have been live games I have had to duck out of for unforseen reasons as well as a couple connectivity issues during live games and such. It is only 3% of my games.

I would never intentionally resign a game. And I wouldn't do it here unless something pretty severe and unforeseen came up.

Also, I probably don't have any resigns in the last 4 months or so, if that helps.

I'm not sure if we can really trust him. He betrayed Solo, remember?

And he did knock off the antennae off the millenium falcon after promising "Not a scratch!" to Solo, too... ;)

I've worked with Lando before, so I'll vouch for him. And since Indy/Kalel hasn't responded, I'll put in the game the PM the pass.

You do have a response from Indy, above :

Pass on me, but thanks, fort. My experience in PPSC is different than yours, and I'm not good enough to play with the big boys of WTA :)

Rock and roll, big boys!

Password has been PM'ed to everyone.

Thanks knox, I'm looking forward to this. Good luck all.

Indy, you are probably the best person on this site that refuses to play WTA : )

If anybody drops before Spring I'll pick it up.

kalel, it's a 400 game. You need to win or draw a game or two you are playing ;)

sorry, indy.... I am not always current... I tried convincing you otherwise... just had too many games where PPSC ruined it (in the manner I already described). Hadn't played PPSC for months except in the GFDT, then it happened again in GFDT, which made my blood boil

Alright, looks like maple doesn't have the points. Kalel, do you? I need someone with at least 400 to jump in here...

bump *2
Seriously... no one wants in on a 400 game? I'm looking for anyone at this point? Marx?

We only have 5 now... who else isn't in?

bartdogg hasn't popped in, yet... but he hasn't been on since monday. I can push out the wait period, but hate to do that without having at least one more person who wants to play....

I'm surprised there is no interest for the last spot.

id do it, but 400 is too steep for me at the moment, id be left with 39

Wow, knox, you are so desperate you'd even accept me into the game, I am truly honored!

Why wouldn't he accept you?

LOL... this thread started cause Marx had a bunch of games he was starting but didn't want to play with people he's played with a bunch. So maple, rdrivera, and myself just got together to make a game. But I guess I didn't think much of marx starting the games he wanted to AND this one as well.
I got one in. bartdogg is the last if he returns, but would like to have a sub if he doesn't show in the next day...

I was trying to make a joke how knox said he'd accept "anyone at this point", and then he specifically asked if I'd join, as if I was the worst of the worst, someone in the "anyone" category that he normally wouldn't invite be he just happens to be that desperate right now. I know he didn't mean it that way, or at least I hope not, but I had to make a comment of some sort.

If you are still looking for someone in a few days and you'd have me I'd be keen to join what looks like a fun game. I'd hate to NMR the first move though so couldn't join until after the weekend. Um my GR is around 30 or so.

Stripy, join and I'll pause the game... as long as you agree to a pause the following weekend when I'll be out ;)

You can pause it before it starts? I've been a member here about 2 years and still feel like a n00b:)

pm me the pw and I'll join up. Thanks.

Are you still looking for a person to join?

yup... you in sarg?

I've just joined! Thanks knoxy.

It looks like I should be ok without the pause now, thanks for the offer though fortknox
