*Empress stumbles in*
huh? what? I'm in a game?
guess I should check ALL the threads a bit more!
Glad I'm not in that carnide, deity, smartfart game!

[finbar]

Got the email thanks, cb. Mmmm. Empress, CapTVK and moi. That's an interesting collection of time zones. I'm 8 hours ahead of Cap, and he's 7 hours ahead of Empress. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. I say again. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm mmmmm.

Oh, and good luck, Horse.

Thanks finbar, I LOVE seafood

[cavebear]

Finbar - I'm really hoping that one of you keeps unusual hours. You 3 have the same score, and I couldn't tell where Empress is located (not in her profile).

Do you think it will be impossible to arrange a mutual playing time?

Nothing is impossible...

[Alexander's Horse]

Arranging times for our group could be a MAJOR hassle. Due to work and family responsibilities, I can only play after 9pm in the evening, Australian time (GMT + 10 I think) It might have been better if players in similar time zones were grouped together. I may have to drop out so as not to hold up the others

[cavebear]

Oh great... I thought you were in the US! Serves you right for not putting your location in your profile.

Well, what if I switched you to Game C (with Carnide, SmartFart and Deity)? Would that work?

Or could you trade with SmartFart? Where is *he* at?

Having lured you *into* this tourney, I have no intention of letting you *out* of it.

[Alexander's Horse]

I'm in Australia, I'd be happy to swap with someone or just join the Deity group. Deity and I play evenings from about 9pm Australian time. I don't want to hold up the group I'm currently in, who sound keen to play.

Can we try and sort this out ASAP? I'm going away for the weekend and I don't want to delay the eager beavers. On the other hand, I don't want to miss out on a place either.

[SmartFart]

I am CET (GMT+1).
I have no problems with switching places.
You guys arrange what's best for you.

[Alexander's Horse]

Thanks smarty

*fancy Cb thinking I was American, I'm go to have to change my style *

[cavebear]

Alexander's Horse and SmartFart -

Thanks, guys, for the timely and accomodating responses!

I think the easiest thing is to just move Alexander's Horse to Game C. That leaves 3 US players together in one game, and a pair each of Europeans and Aussies in the other game.

The adjusted groups are:

Game A - Aritea (host), Jedi, Markus, Nappy
Game B - Curumbor (host), Crustacian, Mark Everson
Game C - Carnide (host), Deity, SmartFart, Alexander's Horse
Game D - CapTVK, Empress, Finbar (host)

[cavebear]

(P.S. to Alexander's Horse)

I find that when I confuse someone for an American, it is usually an Aussie!

(ducking flying tomatoes and, in this case, horse by-products)

[cavebear]

CapTVK - Does that mean that you think you can accomodate a schedule agreeable to Empress and Finbar? If so, I think everything is workable for all the games.

[finbar]

Empress is in the US, one hour behind the East Coast whichever zone that is. We've already been in contact - me with Emp, and me with Cap - and will sort something out. Probably have to be weekends.

So seafood's off, Horse?

Oh, and cavebear - don't worry about mistaking Horse's origins. We view him and treat him as a complete foreigner anyway.
