Looking to start a new game...

[binTravkin]

I guess, It'd be nice if Mart7x5 made such a coded table for all the players, plus the breakdown at the last column!

I dunno how to do it - but will see vb help soon to learn it!

Things that should be included:

Fac order for each of us
AI factions for each of us
Map settings
Game settings

[Mart]

I write it in notepad using "Tab" key for allign of words in columns, and "|" symbol for separating columns. Enclosing this text copied from notepad in "code" allows those tabs to remain unchanged, otherwise they are replaced to spaces, what destroys allignment. You could do it too, just copy the text from the post to notepad or wordpad.

Please give attention to the "?" signs in the "Result" column and make at least some vote to decide it!
Also - Ouro_827, please, choose 1 AI faction (to be the 3rd AI faction)

[Groron]

As I mentioned I accept any options the majority wants.

[Mart]

It might be important. You Groron wish to play Drones? In english version Cult is referred to Cult of Planet, as far as I know. Maybe to avoid misunderstandings Cult might be changed to Drones in the table?
-----------------
EDIT
Please disregard then, my mistake....

[Groron]

I wanted to play either Cult or Drones. Whatever is left over. I choose Cult over Drones.

[Ouro_827]

Let's say..... Sparta! I don't really care... Sparta or the Drones... Is Darsnan still oaround or do I need to PM him? We'll need e-mails, and he will need our prefered passwords... Might get to check in on Saturday, but I'll be gone for the weekend...

I am still here, but will also be OOT for the weekend. And Ouro_827 is right: if you have a password preference, either PM me or send me an E-Mail at ababdnandal@twcny.rr.comabab minus the a's and b's. Also, anyone got an idea what to name this game?

[Mart]

A name? Ouro might suggest something.
From roleplaying point, I would need more background. some idea:

Virtual Dream

[xman1975]

Just getting started

Would anyone care to recommend how I can get plugged in somewhere. I'm new. I have the game and love it. Never done mulitplayer yet.

[GeoModder]

xman1975: you could try to start an MP game yourself, and ask for players of your experience level and a game master.

Or if a replacement is asked somewhere (happens now and then), volunteer then.

Thanx for doing that for me, binTravkin!

I am starting the map now and should be done tonight. btw is anyone interested in the AI's building Probe Cruisers upon discovery of Doc: Init? Also, does anyone want the AI's to build non-standard units? Also, did anyone think up a name for the turn tracknig thread?
