[Harovan]

A least I was trying. I quit them all in the industrial age, though, for reasons I repeated ad nauseam.

[Paddy]

[marcuspeddle]

what happens if you attack a player you're in a locked alliance with?

There are locked alliances in PBEM games?

indeed there are locked alliances in PBEM

most of the time you need to get into the Editor to set them up.

it is all good

I don't know if I'll have any time to do much before Friday night, but here's a quick note:

Trip, Thrill-err-aqua_lung, and Flandrian fill out the list of intial entrants (conveniently in the correct time zones :-). I wouldn't be surprised if somebody was no longer available (I noticed LzPrst was MIA from another game a few days ago...), so there's a good chance you can get in Dominae. If not right away, we might try to summon you from hiatus with the Dom signal in case someone needs to drop out, if you wouldn't mind taking over someone else's game.

For a tease like Sir Ralph, all we can do is put him on permenant probation... :-P

To verify everyone who is still seeking to become The Iron Civillian , please PM me with at least your email, and include any schedule information not yet mentioned in the thread, that you wish considered. Anybody not responding to this request within 24 hours will drop in priority for tournament entry!

bold and red warning

better PM asap! (i know i will)

[marcuspeddle]

I did. I hope he got it - there was a big delay when I sent . . . . .

[sabrewolf]

Done.

It's been a month since the thread started- I just want to make sure no one has fallen alseep already... :-)

[Jon Shafer]

You might want to give some of the other entrants a reminder. This thread started a long time ago so a lot of people who signed up probably aren't posting or looking at this thread any more.

thanks.

btw, concerning the rules... i wouldn't mind having a bit more space than 4civs on tiny, especially as many strategy geniuses are playing ... except if 40% water really works, then it's different

Tease me all you want, but even if I wished, I could not participate. For reasons I don't want to mention, my ability to play contiguously or even to post on Apolyton is at least in the next time seriously in question.

Brackets

Starting at the IDL and working west, here are the preliminary foursomes:

Game A
ricketyclick
Paddy the Scot
aqua_lung
Masuro

Game B
Iron Jackson
Conqueror
Flandrien
LzPrst

Game C
Andydog
sabrewolf
Mickeyj
Moonbars

Game D
alexman
Trip
smellymummy
Soltz


The Europeans have made a strong preliminary showing, but are slow on the confimation...

We are past the 24 hour mark and I have yet to hear from:
Soltz

Dominae, if you want in, there's a spot for you.

Working on the 24 hour premise, I've PMed the last 4 entrants. If a new player posts here and a spot is still open 24 hours later, that new player is in. So on and so forth, until we have the full 16.
