If we play within 24 hours rule, a turn every 2 weeks, 27 turns a year ( I forgot holidays ) ... 187 turns in 7 years... wow Kralj is right

But, if you can make a good sincronization maybe 3 years will be enough

i really dont assume it will take full 24 hours for a turn.
in our all-german-speaking game we do 2-3 turns at some days. and then still we had the mentioned black sheep.

as far as i know you guys, we'll be much faster, especially with time zone synchronization

if i could just find a way to get to more than 8 players....
is there a special forum for such things ?
i would be happy if one of you could post there and ask

[Kralj Matjaz]

I'm not talking about first couple turns, but consider every turn within 7 days as fast one.
Zone synchronisation will not help later when people will drop out and in.

I think Kralj is right Mathemagician -- especially with 8 or more players. You say that you were averaging 2 to 3 turns per DAY with an 8 player game in Germany??? WOW! That's great... But, I don't think you will get that here . Look at the Eagles at War game. That started over 2 years ago and they haven't made it to turn 100 yet. Maybe if everyone is very diligent you will get 2 or 3 turns a week at best. So anyone signing up should know beforehand that this game will take about 3 years to complete.

nono im not saying we AVERAGE 2-3 turns per day.
but on the good days we had this number.
and the bad days were usually with those players not motivated to play, so i estmated we would have more good days with you guys around here.
but if all of you keep telling me otherwise..

well, anyway, as long as it takes 3 years and not 7, its fine for me

[checkMate]

I'm in. Did it start yet?

[checkMate]

I should have mentioned that I play
most days at 6AM CST (short) and 10PM CST (longer)


I think GMT is about 8 hours ahead of me.

[Mathemagician]

welcome in, checkmate
no we didnt start yet.

im waiting for someone to tell me if you can go over 8 players in email games...
any idea ?

i guess in 2 days we should be ready to go.

oh and everyone post your desired civs.

[geoffrey arnold]

ok Ill be the australians

[Mathemagician]

C'mon people.
2 more for the english 8 person game...
(see updated post on page 1)

[lunger75]

Awlrighty then!
I'll play ( until I'm dead or you find somebody better ).
These games are slow though, I'm in chicken run and I
get a turn every 2-3 weeks! But that doesn't mean we can't
do better!
Can I be " Chop feng-shui " of the Chinese.

[lunger75]

Oh yeah, my email is: lunger75@hotmail.com

[Mathemagician]

one more then...

[Mathemagician]

okay
i would say lets go with 7, have one AI and maybe someone can replace the AI later on (i think i read in the word FAQ that this should be possible)

could i have the emails of everyone that didnt gave it yet and with whom i dont have email games running ?
