Announcement ! tcp/ip players needed

[Hercules]

Hello guys?

[Hercules]

I think you're on line ( Hamaci) but I can't connect with you.

[Hercules]

Well I can connect but nobody answering.

They did answer in the end and we had a four person IP game via Hamachi.

And it worked well. My first game via IP and we had Smaxveteran, Eldramatico, bdanv and myself. So it works over long distances.

There was a little time lag but it seemed reasonable to me.

We played Smacx. We played standard planet but I reckon now that was too small as it meant players were spaced relatively close to each other which meant researching offensive techs became more important.

We also agreed no tech trading between players and no tech trading with AI.

For those who haven't played smacx IP before and who have broadband, give it a go via Hamachi.

IMO it gives a whole new lease of life to SMACX.

I didn't say that. Of course I'm interested.

[bdanv]

So, if everybody agrees, it will be friday, November 2nd, 10pm GMT for that second game.

[Hercules]

Unfortunately I can't make it this Friday coming.

[bdanv]

Then I think we should continue the third game this friday (10pm GMT). What do you think: Eldramatico, florin79c?

[florin79c]

why not?

Re: Announcement ! tcp/ip players STILL needed

For me this game is not that precious. I was just pleased to participate in an IP game.

Next time more concentration.

However if 3 or more interested, I'll continue of course.
