News: SGOTM 4 Sign-up Thread

[Methos]

@AlanH: You forgot zyxy's signup to Team Smurkz.

 

[AlanH]

Hmm. Somehow he got into VQ. Fixing it.

 

[socralynnek]

OK, put me into Team CDZ!

 

[zyxy]

Thanks AlanH!

 

[Jenarie]

Please add me to Geezers.

I got a nice PM invite which I'll do my very best to make sure they don't regret.

I'm really excited to be starting my first SG. I've been wanting to do this since I first heard of them but didn't think I was a good enough player. I've improved my game quite a bit through practice and reading the board and although I'm still not very good I'm hoping I can contribute to the team.

@AlanH: You forgot zyxy's signup to Team Smurkz.

Heh, that AlanH missed it is one thing, but how in all Holy Smurkziness could I miss it when checking the team list?!? Sorry about that zyxy, but I'm sure you know we love you anyway...

@eldar: Welcome aboard!

Seems like Team Smurkz once again has a full roster then (and a good number of lurkers too), despite some of us old players not having Warlords. Go Smurkz!

1. Which level (noble, monarch, etc.) are you comfortable playing in a solo game?
2. Have you played any Civ4/Warlords GOTM games before?
3. Have you played any succession games or SGOTM before?
4. Do you have a group of players you want to play with?
5. Please state if you wish to play in OS X on a Mac. If so you will have to join a Mac-only team.

1. Prince.
2. No.
3. No MP of any kind -- please be forgiving of any newbie folly!
4. No.
5. Yep, OS X, which may well mean I'm out of luck...

 

[Beorn-eL-Feared]

Yessssssssss we have a team CDZ

 

[Lexad]

Alan,

The correct spelling of our team CRC member's nick would be kaizer. Thanx in advance

Also I wonder that if we had intersecting SGOTMs and SWOTMs, the pending one would better be named SWOTM-1?

 

[AlanH]

Changing the name would require some script changes, and I'm far too busy currently to do it. So, sorry, you'll have to live with SGOTM 4.

 

[Lexad]

No problem

 

[AlanH]

PS. SGOTM 3 had a set of Warlords teams, so this couldn't be SWOTM 1, anyway

Team lists are updated to this point. If there are any errors or omissions, please speak now.

 

[LKendter]

[*]Realms Beyond (or The Real Ms. Beyond?): BeefontheBone, darkwatcher, Kodii, LKendter, ruff_hi, Sir Bugsy, TheArchduke

Real Ms. Beyond is the correct name, and what we played the last one under.

 

[remconius]

Hi Alan,

Please add me to Trash team. I was invited

Thanks!

 

[Harbourboy]

When do the teams get finalised then? What happens next?

This sounds fascinating. Credit to whoever came up with the idea for this inverse space race objective.

Please read post #127. You can also see the sequence previous game have taken by looking at old Sign-up threads. Most importantly, please do as I asked at the start of this thread, and read the Civ4 SGOTM Reference Thread where the whole process is mapped out and the overall Rules are defined.

Specifically for this game:

24 hours ago I gave 48 hours for smaller teams to get more of their previous players to sign up, or to form mergers. In another 24 hours I shall assign remaining unassigned players to the remaining smaller teams. At that point you will know which team you are assigned to, subject to any last-minute errors, appeals and complaints. I shall then open the Team Threads for private team discussions, and the Maintenance Thread for ongoing public administration of the game. You will check in to your appointed Team Thread, where you will hopefully get to know your team-mates, and the game details and internal team administration will be discussed.

The individual starting save for each team will become available on the SGOTM Progress and Results page as the clock strikes twelve in GOTM-server-land to herald in the 23rd February.

 

[Doom Train]

count me in

1- Monarch
2- yes
3- yes
4- Fifth Element

 

[AlanH]

:cough: This thread has been open for two weeks. The game is due to start in just over 48 hours. Anyone planning to play had better have their name in the frame TODAY, or they will have to take their chances at the back of a queue.

We have promises of sign-ups from other CDZ members - where are they? Others seem to think I can magic the teams together an hour before we start.

Give me a break ... please?

 

[Sam_Yeager]

Yep, OS X, which may well mean I'm out of luck...

Alan, I think you overlooked this part of Ankh-f-n-Khonsu's signup.

 

[Beorn-eL-Feared]

My view on this is the same as yours, a little on the hopeful side - if they don't come by, they're not in. We're 4 already, give or take whoever you would see fit to toss in - we probably will keep our spoiler over there though. But yeah, I certainly understand your view.
