[deity]

Culture war, the boundaries keep changing every other turn!

[deity]

I'm going out to get some breakfast... back in an hour or so but that maybe getting late for Nicoda.

OK, it seems that there is a growing agreement on no tech trade for HOTW6 as an experiment if nothing else.

Now over to the problem of arranging playtime/gamestart and who is to host...

Easter enters and may be an issue. I will be out cold drunk this saturday (the only way of getting a greater high than Diplogames )

But I guess Both me and Lzprst will be able to play when we meet for easter back home next Saturday night (CET).

Can everyone raise a virtual hand in favour of starting:

April 15th (Saturday) 23:00 CET



- OmnipotentTrout

I could make that, I'll be there.

Diplogamers ready to start HOTW6 on the 15th at 23:00 CET:

OmnipotentTrout
Lzprst
Schtix

Please post a reply if you are not on the list, but are available!

This will be a full Diplogame, only we will turn off tech trade.

A HOTW6 thread will be made next saturday when this thing gets off the ground. Same gentlemen/lady rules apply as for HOTW5. (Or it wouldn't be HOTW6, now would it )

Pax,

Yeah I can do that. That's 8am Sunday here.

We using 1.52 or 1.61?

So, that's a Terra Large map (subject to number); Marathon speed; No tech trading; posting stories...

[OmnipotentTrout]

Date: April 15th (next Saturday (Euro))
Time: 23:00 CET
Version: 1.52 (just a suggestion ... )

The List:

OmnipotentTrout
LzPrst
Schtix
deity

Rules:
Terra Map (of a good size), Maraton speed, No tech trade, Diplo code of Honor and Role Playing (posting history)

"Get on board 'cause the Train is moving"
(at least after we invent Steam engines ... )

[OzzyKP]

The final patch should be out by then.....

[KunojiLym]

Tell me what CET is in terms of GMT again?

[Schtix]

I *think* CET is equal to GMT+1, and if everything I worked out was right, that would make the time for the session this Saturday 1pm PST, anyone dare to prove me wrong? =D

[OmnipotentTrout]

Patch: I suggest we just go with 1.52 since everyone surely has this installed

-----------------------

OK! I've done some research (we are in summer time), and here are the results:

Start time:
Saturday 15th

UTC 21:00 (Coordinated Universal Time)

CEST 23:00 (Central European Summer Time = UTC +2)

BST 22:00 (British Summer Time = UTC +1)

PDT 14:00 (Pacific Daylight Time =UTC -7)

Zulu Time: twenty one hundered hours
(for you green barrets out there = UTC)


These are the times if it was still winter, but look out the window :

GMT 21:00 (GMT = UTC)
CET 22:00 (CET = UTC +1)
PST 13:00 (PST = UTC -8)

Ozzy and Kuno: Are you guys in or not?

[OzzyKP]

I'm not. 1 diplogame is more than enough for me. I can't keep up the intensity with another game.

I think Kuno is though.

Be sure to send a PM to all the people who expressed interest here in the thread so far.

[OmnipotentTrout]

I think I've PM'ed everyone now..

Diplogames demand heart and soul
Live long and prosper in HOTW5, Ozzy!

[Frank Johnson]

I'm going to try to make it. I never know with my job situation, but right now weekends look good.

[Robert]

For how many hours will you guys play?

[NicodaMax]

22:00 CET...
That's 4pm for me, on a saturday. As much as I would like to, and would be willing to, my wife would kill me. She has a strong opinion about the fact that that time should be spent with my kids and family.
Well, I guess she is right, until my kids play civ4 at least
Plus, I wouldn't be able to guarantee my presence on weekends since we usually go to my/her parents houses over the weekends, and I've yet to buy a laptop with a wireless cell phone/satellite phone connection. Someday
Thanks anyway. I'll stick to HotWV and the backup game for now. If any other MP game activity develops for weekdays after 23:00 UTC count me in please.
