Has anyone thought about this question? And who was the CMN again?

i noticed that before archaic, but i thought i had fixed it. maybe i uploaded the wrong file to my webspace (which would explain why tacticus' .txt file is still wrong)

[Method]

here is the updated set

[GeneralTacticus]

Can anyone get in touch with MWIA? And did we actually resolve the issue of whether we're going to play with or without random events?

[Maniac]

Besides a whole bunch of other questions...

I PMed MWIA a couple of days ago. I guess he has lost interest. So we need a new volunteer.

Sorry guys, setting things up at home is taking longer than expected. I don't think I will be ready for the next few days (my only Net access is sporadic, dependent solely on other people). Just another missed opportunity for me. This seems to be becoming a trademark.

I wish all participants the best of luck. One day (hopefully SOON) I might be able to join you all in a future game.

Let Mortal Combat begin!

[GeneralTacticus]

Okay, so we now need toe ither find a new player or play with one AI faction.

[Archaic]

An AI Peacekeepers faction perhaps?

[Hercules]

As there are no /other/ better ideas lets go with an AI faction

[MrWhereItsAt]

If it's not already started, then I am all sorted for Net access - both at work (PhD research) and at home.

Don't hate me.

Stuff happens, RL interferes... I think we all understand. Welcome back to the game, btw

[MrWhereItsAt]

Thanks! I have taken the opportunity to further my abilities in Civ3 and SMAX, to at least discover and experiment with the massive use of Crawlers that has for so long puzzled me in the Demo game. I have improved my difficulty level somewhat as well, so I hope I can pitch in constructively.

[GeneralTacticus]

So, all we need is MWIA's faction choice, and we get going

[Maniac]

Err... not exactly. Apparently there are a few players not familiar with Transcend, so we have to ask them if they want a slightlyt lower difficulty level. Then there's still my question: should each faction starts with a colony pod and scout patrol (or for me sea colony pod and unity foil) more than in the normal game to speed things up a bit?
