Here is the plan:

I'd like to create 2 games, 1000 bet each, WTA gunboat 25-36 hours phase.

The second one would be Ancient Med, the first 1000 challange for Ancient ever.

Classic:
1. rokakoma (54)
2. Vaftrudner (32)

Ancient:
1. rokakoma (50)

1 restriction, beause of recent bad experience on my side with, please try to keep this top 50 (maybe 100) GR, anyone over GR 100 can be replaced with someone in the top 100.

Correction:
The two EOGs for the last 2 games are mixed up, if anyone uses the list, change it
My GR is 54.

Please subscribe your name by just adding it to the list.

Classic:
1. rokakoma (54)
2. Vaftrudner (32)
3. DipperDon (don't know don't care)

but feel free to look mine up if you think it is important.

DipperDon (76), no it's not important, it's more likely a guidance than a rule.
I'm glad you joined, especially since you are the winner of the last one, it's a very small club.

Put me down for both please, GR 19.

I would have been suprised by any different answer from you :)

Classic:
1. rokakoma (54)
2. Vaftrudner (32)
3. DipperDon (76)
4. Sargmacher (19)

Ancient:
1. rokakoma (54)
2. Sargmacher (19)

Sign me up for classic

It enough if you copy paste the list with your names, but of course I'll add you gladly.

Classic:
1. rokakoma (54)
2. Vaftrudner (32)
3. DipperDon (76)
4. Sargmacher (19)
5. DILK (considered as 100 ;))

Ancient:
1. rokakoma (54)
2. Sargmacher (19)

Roka, is this GR based or first-come-first-served? I joined on the basis that it was going to be based on GR.

While i would love to lose 1,000 i'd prefer to play fill press.

How about a pair of 3500 point games? Shall i make my own thread?

Sarg, 1st DILK is 103, 2nd if anyone signs up with better GR I'm willing to replace, but once the 7 players are listed, I wouldn't wait too much to find better rated players.

Of course I'm open to discuss the issue, our common interest is to make the game high rated, but surely not at the cost of harming anyone. I don't want to be a judge here, but the "please try to keep it top 100 GR" had the word please in it :)

Ora, I'll join you on the 3500 point games...I got myself a 75 GR

Assuming we're talking gunboats, sign me up for classic please.

Classic:
1. rokakoma (54)
2. Vaftrudner (32)

Great! Sarg, or anyone, do you have any objections against the current list?

I'd prefer 25 hours pahes, any objections to that one?

Sarg: FYI, I think NONE of the previous 7k challanges were any near top 100

gameID=88274 password PMed

Classic (full press)
1. Sandgoose
2. ORathaiC

Still looking for players for Ancient Map

Could people commit to pressing ready please.

Sarg: pls respect the 25 hours phase. There's no need to pressure anyone, if the rules allow not to finalize. Also I wouldn't like to see any further comment about the game.

Next time, we may ask for a commitment, before the game starts, but after, it makes no sense. We will not change rules (even unwritten ones) during a game.

I consider the case and topic closed about the ongoing game in any ways. Please respect that!

I've corrected the list:

@Roka: I wasn't calling for a "rule change". It's just generally considered classy play to finalise orders in this series of gunboat games - especially in 1901 and for build and retreat phases.

I'm not pressuring anyone - of course there are going to be situations when you might not feel able to press ready.
