Extend your awareness outwards, beyond the self of body, to embrace the self of group and the self of humanity. The goals of the group and the greater race are transcendent, and to embrace them is to achieve enlightenment."

                  Hello, folks. Please check the preferences and player list above.

                  I'm sure you all are anxious to start so once I get Zerokal's email and Ouro's password I pretty much plan to get started on the scenairo.

                  That means I might will have to make some assumpations re: game settings so if you feel strongly about something, please make sure I know how you feel.

                  One concern - two players stated their difficult levels. One person wanted Transcend and other one wanted 'something low.' I've noticed most of players tend to want Transcend for PBEMs, shall I assume the same for you guys?

                  As for your GMT, it's entirely up to you. I was planning to set the turn order in order of GMT because in my experience that is the best way to make sure turns get passed around faster.

                    Hello RalPA! It's always great to see new people joining our forum community especially if they're interested in playing.

                    I don't have any problem with you joining this PBEM but it's not really up to me. Some players prefer to keep the number of participants low to help speed up the game.

                    So this is up to those guys who will be playing. Should they decide they prefer not to accept new players, please don't despair. New PBEMs pop up all the time and you can even open a thread yourself expressing your interest in having a PBEM and I'm sure you will find other interested players pretty quickly.

                    Again, welcome!

                        For my settings

                        I was just quoting Zerokal...But that's ok with me obviously. For difficulty, harder is indeed better. What's the difficulty right below Transcend? That's probably what we want for this game. That way it's a happy medium. We don't want to make it too easy with so many actual players in the game. If you set it too low, it automatically disables certain game functions too, like with the cities, giving some factions (like the Hive for instance) a huge advantage.

                        PS - My GMT is -5 I think (EST).

                          Sorry if I misunderstood you, Arcainite but seems it's ok anyway

                          The level right below Transcend is Thinker.

                          As for GMT - you can find out by going to control panel, then to edit options... look under 'time offset' - there's your GMT which will be correct as long you did set it to your time zone

                          -5 GMT sounds right although, I'm in PST and I know I'm at -8.

                              Arcainite - would Librarian be acceptable to you? It's two steps below Transcend.

                              Also I haven't heard from any of you regarding RalPA. If I don't hear an objection he's in. He has already gave me all information I need so he's good to go. So please speak up or hold your peace
