Backup Multiplayer game

[Robert]

This thread is started for discussing all stuff regarding the backup-game we started last friday.

Involved:
Nicodamax
Dragon
Deity
LzPrst
CyberShy
We can play every week before the start of the official diplogame HOTWV, I guess.
I can play from 20:00 UTC
then we can play up till 22.30 UTC when the HOTWV game starts. If we don't play for HOTWV (like coming friday) we can continue to play)

I guess this game won't really flow into a in dept diplo game. I suggest we just make this a multiplayer game with much diplomacy, not nessecarily with characters.

[NPDragon]

I cant play every week from that time, but 2 out of every 3 weeks I can.

Your last sentence is rather confusing...

I prefer less out-game diplomacy and I dont mind to leave out role playing either.

[deity]

I just know I won't be able to get up at 5am!

I'll aim for 6 or 7am which will give us a bit of time.

It would be too exhausting to have two games with role playing so I agree for an in game diplo style but I prefer everyone posts a status report or maps or something for each session to spice it up a bit. I posted that culture war map for example.

But you are playing in HOTW6, that's gonna be full diplo.

Where?

[deity]

Here then!

[Robert]

I'll post the serious troubles island I started on.
Which will make my win more impressive in the end!

I can play friday. Deity: if you can tell us what time you can play UTC (or compared to the normal HOTW session) then I think we can start at that time.

[LzPrst]

I suggest that we keep this game going for those sessions when HOTWV is skipped due to attendance. at the rate we were going we'll probably be done in 3-5 more sessions. since we're not playing HOTWV this week due to ozzy's absence then I say we run this game another round instead. same time, this friday, the 14th of april, at UTC 23:00, same start time as HOTWV.

for some reason I must say, it doesnt feel too much like a diplogame, not yet anyway. of course, I've been somewhat isolated and have had plenty of land to settle on all by my lonesome. though I'm gonna send deity a PM suggesting a transfer of goods and services after this post fear my power

I feel Cyber has very accurately named this thread; the backup game. I say we play it as a backup for HOTWV. RP is optional, since it is a little difficult to make posts for 4400 years of gametime. guess we were a little too effective

but I agree that we should aim for as much diplomacy as possible to keep the game from degrading into an arms race\conquest style game and add some flavour to it. game on people

:Jorge talking to NicodaMax:

- I agree....

- With what?

- Everything, I guess?

- But I can only play weekdays after 23:00 UTC.

- That's fine. They did say it'd be as a backup to HotWV Diplogame, so this Friday it will be this game at the usual time and place.

- You're weird, you know that, Don't you? "Place..." Funny. But seriously, I haven't had much time lately to post at all, with the new job and all.

- Nah, that's ok, you'll get to it eventually. I'll see you on Friday then.

- Ok, cya.

:Jorge stops conversation with NicodaMax:

ps. Anybody know a good psychiatrist?

[LzPrst]

goodness. who is Jorge? is that you in RL? and dont worry, talking to oneself\ones civ leader is perfectly normal for most of the people hanging at these forums.

Also. Just to say it. I feel that we should use SOME RP for the diplomatic language. I'm Gonna create a thread called Backup Game HoTB for Diplo purposes.

I thought we started the other HOTWV game on 22:30 UTC

Half hour later for the europeans
half hour earlier for the non-europeans

[LzPrst]

doesnt matter to me. how can people play on the coming friday? I'm fine with anything.

[Robert]

Perhaps everyone can state right here at what time they can start playing

20.00 UTC
