MP Internet Opponents

[notyoueither]

OK. This is not gonna be easy. But it is necessary.

The bottom line is that as of now you will have better luck with people who are close to you for Internet MP. You do not have to be in the same city, but that can't hurt.

So, where are you? What type of connection do you have? What OS (this could be important)? And when are you available?

BTW, if you register here, you should really at least activate PMs here on Poly, and let users email you. Those are options in the Control Panel under Options

I will update this post with a list sorted by region.

Come on, don't be shy. New countries, states and provinces can be added. I've added a few that I think will get people registering from.

For those outside of Canada and the States, please indicate how to list you by Province/County/City (or whatever system is used where you are from).

More space. We can hope.

NYE you may want to include firewall info since many players will be behind uni firewalls that they cant disable.

Good point Spencer.

There must be other people who want to find opponents near them. I can't list you if you don't step up.

Montreal is "quite close" to NYC in that between us we have the best looking women in North America.

Dominae, let me get my feet wet with PBEM, and maybe next weekend we can try some live MP (starting a new position on Monday).

I see you're not ignorant of the wonders of my beautiful city. Nor am I to yours...

I do think they're quite close geographically though; the couple of opponents I played were in NY and Boston, and the lag wasn't so bad.
