    I can play at 7 pm central but MUST stop at 9 pm central also. My schedule has changed a bit, although I failed to mention thursdays are bad for me. I can play any day of the week except thursdays so hopefully Dip VIII can be moved to another day after the opening day. Btw, I cant be sure of this, but I thought Curumbor was going to play this one.

      Nah, I'm not in this one. With 2x1x and no rules intended to discourage aggressive warfare, I predict this one will tank around the 5th session. But don't let that stop you! It would be nice to see another stable dip game get going.

        Okay, I can play Dip VIII, but tonight - the opening night - I can only play to 8:30 central. If thats a problem then I can wait for the next dip game to start up. And once we do start dip 8 I will need a new day to play - thursdays are out for me for a little while... Oh, I'll take the dark blue - Vikes!
        What is the rule on disconnects? I dont enjoy games where we keep playing and dont wait for people disconnected to rejoin - especially when their wonder gets dismantled (I think you'll find no better way to lose players). And unfortunately this often happens right before their turn - so can we reload whenever a player loses connection and the ai does serious damage?

          Meaning no disrespect to ROC, I think the disconnects should be handled simply:

          1) The timer is set to unlimited.

          2) We send the IP the the disconnected person if he/she needs it, which they shouldn't since they should write it down or have as copy and paste.

          3) We wait for them to say they are comming back, if they don't say that they are, play resumes.

          There, I hope that is a good plan.

            Berz, I thought you were playing this till 9:30. Dip V begins at 9, not 8. Of course, if you will be able to play Dip V at 9, that would be great. Let me know.

              So, bezerk, you can only play for an hour and a half?? humm... well I don't have a problem with it. I guess.

              Anyway, so you aren't available wednesday or thursday huh? well, that leaves either mondays or weekends... what about the rest of you? which would you have? Monday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday?

                I might be able to fill a spot if this is starting soon.
                I e-mailed Roc.

                  I can play Dip VIII from 8pm EST to 9:30pm EST - at which time I have to rejoin Dip V (at 9:30 EST). I can play Dip VIII any day/night of the week in the future except Thursdays (due to Dip V), although I prefer leaving Wednesdays open if possible.

                    i got icq#65841734.

                    i can play in diplo 8.

                    i wonder tho how thrilling it will be if people can only play for 2 hours every other week cuz of diplo 5, 7, and 4.

                    can we focus on having focused players?

                      Look, I have no clue what is going on with Diplo VII or Diplo VIII, all I know is I am showing up for Diplo VIII. I guess we will iron out VII's problems later, I have no clue what's going on with that game.

                      I am definantly going to be online tonight at 7:30, which is in one hour.

                        So how do we keep in contact in case of disconnects or crashes? Thru this thread?

                              ok, I am on my laptop, my PC seems fried, Windows went into safety mode... We will have to postpone till I can fix this somehow.

                                Well, this would have to be the weirdest game I've ever started!
                                I'm still not sure who I'm playing against. Is Roc in it? Folks were coming and going.. friggin hell!

                                Chat from start was disabled! And some weren't on icq. Common Terry helped me out and Berzerker was in it for a while. Vlad is there too, finally got him on icq....

                                In the mean time my civ rocks The supreme DEITIANS with 13 cities, twice the pg of anyone else and 1st in most demogs are on a continent similar to North America... Did I say similar?? After the session I asked Vlad was it a world map..
                                he he It IS North America!!

                                *silly Aussie with stupid look on face*

                                Haven't met anyone.. I felt so lonely that I hassled finbar who was getting ready to play Diplo V. Until he told me to shutup
                                I may as well have been playing with myself!
                                Also, I haven't played 2x1x for ages. It is weird too. I started building mines before I remembered you get better value building forests! And irrigation of course is a waste.

                                Anyway, I'm having fun

                                Same time next week is good for me.
