Sounds good!

I suppose we can arrange the starting Map before hand as soon as every one has BtS?

[condor223]

If we can start sooner, or have a prelim test of some maps, I would be eager to play.

(bored) lol Am so used to 8 years of constant playtesting.

[The_Aussie_Lurker]

Just to be interesting-I will play Ethiopia.

Aussie_Lurker.

What happened to Kuno? Will he play?
Did Dacole confirm that he'll play?

[Toni]

Kuno said he won't be able to play, and Cole said he wants to join us, but is waiting to see how his job interview goes 1st.

[Robert]

Hmmm, I'll be on vacation on the 1st
Well, let's just consider him in, if he doesn't want to be in, then we'll find someone else instead of him, plenty of time for that.

Ask him to post his civ/leader choise plz.

[Robert]

Just to speed things up, I'll be Charles de Gaulle (France)

If someone else (who's in the picking list before me) picks him, I'll post a 2nd leader.

Here.

Thinking about my civ.

As to start dates, I am away from 8 August to 27 August visiting Mt. Everest (really), so the 31st is the first day I could start.

If folks really, really want to start earlier, I will see if I can find a stand in.

And - I am with Toni on the slightly faster speed and no tech trading. He and I discussed it earlier, and I think it will deal with some of the existing issues.

About the 'slightly faster speed'
I'm sure this game will be quicker because we won't have to deal with the connection problems, like we had in the beginning.

The game will most probably be twice as fast.
