I don't think there's enough interest lately for another game, regardless of the scenario. Just look at how many open slots there are in the players needed threads.
Why don't you try something new?Originally posted by conmcb25
Yep, I agree with Darius, PBEM's dying right and left. Maybe this is the death throws of the community?
Recently I have tried one MP game and the game speed was quite high for me - I got confused easily. Then I joined one 7-player PBEM and it is quite slow... For me a disavantage of a standard PBEM game is that time periods where I concentrace to the game are short.
So ... my thinking heads towards something between MP and standard PBEM:
why don't you play PBEM duels? you could play in agreed time periods (like MP, but there is no time press): 1 or 10 hours, you can manage 5-10, maybe 20 turns per day), a game may finish in 2 weeks or 2 months...
