        I could agree to that, as long as it isn't any later than what you've suggested.
        I can do that too Lz (see if the rest of the US players would though)

              theoretically. or. yes. but I'm already trying to organize hotw10... pfft. this one will kick way more ass

              so that is 7 players so far, possibly 8. We need to decide on a map.

              People need to vote for whether they want a premade map or a normal randomly generated one.

              1. Premade (Earth, Europe, Asia, etc)
              2. Random (Continents, Terra, Big_Small, etc)



              Secondly, can all the players who Toni listed declare whether they are able to play in a new timeslot. Which we need to figure out when is going to be. my original suggestion may or may not have been very workable. 11 PM USA, is 5 AM Europe. A bit hard to work. An hour later is still harsh for a saturday/sunday morning, but somewhere it has to give.

              Let me know everyone who CAN or CAN NOT play on the following hours. If we have any other time zones let me know.
              EAST USA Midnight - 3 AM Saturday night
              Central Europe 6 - 9 AM (east euro +1, Britain -1) sunday morning
              Sydney 4 PM - 7 PM, sunday morning

              If not, we may have to just stick with the current time slot, but move it to saturday. There is a third option though, and that is to move the game from the current time slot to a few hours later, that would be late evening in the US, dusk-dawn in europe, and afternoon in sydney. but only if the other euros would agree.

                Five IS harsh for Saturday morning; six would be better but still cruel and unusual. But I guess the answer is: CAN

                I would have a slight preference for a premade European or Mediterranean map. If neither of these is chosen a random Terra map would be great. Big_Small is a close second a 2-3 continents map would be pretty fun too.


                Off course this is only true, If Cyber decides not to join and if the others don’t mind an enthusiastic newbie.



                Edit: Ehhh, akwardly phrased. I meant other players not minding, not Cyber not joining.

                  Players to confirm if they are playing and if they agree with Lz's time slot (or stick to the current one)

                    no worries. a newb is always great to have around for testing one's ballistic angles

                    since ozzy seems a bit reluctant, and cyber as well, a 'hard core player only' game seems unlikely. besides, we want new blood all the time. ehem. by that I mean more players for our pool. not a real pool of course, or a pool of blood or anything like that, I... eh. never mind. you're welcome to join us if you want to. and don't worry about the time, it is not yet decided. it is merely a suggestion. and it might be a bad one...

                      That would be 5pm Sundays on current Daylight Savings time in East Coast Australia (GMT + 11).

                          BTW Capo and a few others might not realise we are going to play anonymously in HOTW12.

                          This means you need to keep your identity secret in game chat and in the threads.

                          I hope Cyber can play and set um our diplo handles for the story thread. Wha this means is that you need to log in to Apolyton with this special handle/id to post ONLY in the HOTW12 story thread.

                          Are all the confirmed players cool with this innovation?

                          It will increase the game excitement and war potentials I believe plus it gets rid of OOC (Out Of Character) player personalties and focusses on the civ leader fantasy personality.

                            also, the timing is a bit off. we need to come to an agreement. unfortunately, it's either dead late in the US, or dead late in Europe...

                              I won't participate.
                              I'll help you guys setting up the handles and creating a fair map, if you guys want that. (don't start making poly-names yourself!!)

                                How are we going to play anonymously?

                                There's no way we can keep the anonymity alive for the duration of the game, so I say why chance it to begin with?

                                I mean, seriously, are you guys going to tell me that you can't figure out which player is which?

                                Am I going to have any more statements end with a question mark?

                                Yes?
