  • ... but of course there are some game bugs that can really spoil a game.
    my proposal is for a limited set of rules for the IP sessions:
    *Communications only allowed between factions that have obtained each others' commlink frequencies in-game
    *Psi units cannot be assigned multiple point patrol routes (avoid instant demon boil bug!)
    *Multiple drops or orbital insertions using the right-click menu is forbidden. So is airdropping from outside a base/airbase, or after having moved (except on a magtube) using the same method. Using the 'i' key when you want an airdrop means you will automatically comply with these restrictions
    *Cannot change an infiltrated faction's workers to specialists, for example by using the F4 screen (or the bases icon of the F2 screen)
    and one additional rule for the PBEM:
    *Multiple reloading of the game to try for different effects is forbidden. If a reload is necessary because of a game crash etc., an explanation should be posted to the turn tracking thread

    LEAGUE RULES

    Anyone can initiate an IP LEAGUE GAME, but:
    - the game will start as an IP game;
    - the game will be initiated in this thread;
    - the game will have at least 3 human players;
    - the game will have to be played on transcend level;
    - the winner will post the last save of the game and passwords (if any);
    - season 2008 ends December 31, 2008 24:00 GMT, results must be posted on Apolyton by that time to count.

    POINTS SYSTEM:
    Games with 6 - 7 players:
    place 1 ... 10 points
    place 2 ... 6 points
    place 3 ... 4 points
    place 4 ... 3 points
    place 5 ... 2 points
    place 6 ... 1 point.

    Games up to 5 players:
    n = no.of players in the game
    place 1 ... n points
    place 2 ... n-1 points
    .........................
    place n ... 1 point

    (Places 2->6 based on the power chart at the moment of victory. When in doubt decided by alpha centauri score. Eliminated players in the order they were killed/surrended).

    • There is one more issue: the scenario issue.
      The scenario to be played will be posted here on Apolyton for everyone to study it, otherwise the host won't score any points in that game.

                  • I'm reading too, just have few things around to do

                    I may have the scenario ready on Friday early evening my time, GMT -7. I'm at work now, but just after the meeting that I have afternoon I should be able to spend time on the scenario. What is exact time you meet? GMT?

                    I will generate all 7 passwords. It will be regular multiplayer scenario. I played several TCP/IP before, and as I remember regular saves work there ok. players just need their passwords. Am I right about it?

                        We are meeting at 10pm GMT (today), that's in about 2 hours from now, maybe 3 hours if someone is late... Do you think you can make it? That would be great

                        Yes, you're right.

                            • I've got scenario and a save for 7 player game.
                              I have meeting in 10 minutes, that maybe 30-45 minutes long.
                              If you can wait till then, I'll send passwords and post the save...
