Turn based game, #players > 3

[Matrix]

Who'd like to play a turn based multiplayer game with a minimum of 4 players. We'll play (at least) one evening a week. Living in Europe is a preference, but if you're American you could play too, but only if you can play in the afternoon.

Compare it with PBEM: those games will take more than a year is successful; this game won't, if we make it to one evening per week.

A suggestion would be: sunday evening. Usually everyone is at home then. Monday evening is possible too... Perhaps both.

I would be interested, but I do not like the 'one evening a week'-concept to be too fixed. If I have to go to family or friends (not that often, but sometimes), then sunday evening should be available for me, I think. Count me in if you're willing to do a weekly scheduling, with the sunday evening as default option. If not, that's fine too .

Prolly also a good idea to begin with a test session to make sure online play with the people selected is good to do.

BTW: Is this game supposed to be PBEM power sessions or real turn-based online play? IIRC, Matrix, you could not get MP get to work

 

[Matrix]

Real turn-based, Plux. I tried it out with WildFire and it simply worked. I probably just had some bad luck with the opponent... I might be I have to host, but I doubt that.

I think that would be best. I only would like that we play at least once a week, otherwise it's going too slow.

I might be interestred in this. Depends abit on which difficulty you will play on. Have never played mp before so it would be a new experience for me.

If difficulty are up for debate i would like Monarch/Emperor.

I prefer Monarch.

I've never seen you before Puwen, but that shouldn't matter. As long as you'll be there when we play.

I'm interested too, but I think Plux makes a good point about first testing things out, because I'm afraid my internet connection might prove to be inadequate for online play.

 

[Plux]

Well, let's just see who signs up, and we'll have a test session with those this sunday? Maybe even a first real session? Let's say 20.00 CET, ok?

 

[Matrix]

Fine by me.

 

[puwen]

Looking forward to it

 

[Plux]

Anybody who signs up for this one, please provide us with your msn or icq numbers. Mine is bramkouwenberg@hotmail.com (NOT my e-mail) and 25887193. Matrix, can you put them in the first post?

Ok, now we are with 4! WF, didn't you say anarres and Killer might join? I mean, if they wanna play they need to respond...

Otherwise it'll be the four of us. (Kemal is uncertain...)

 

[Matrix]

Puwen and I tried MP out, but were unsuccessful. I am able to play with WildFire though, me as host. Tomorrow WF should be online and we can try with him being host.

Now I'm gonna play Unreal Tournament and listen to Dimmu Borgir (death metal).

 

[Stapel]

I'm in1

Sunday 20:00 right?

 

[Matrix]

Well, we'll try.

 

[WildFire]

I was on the whole day today...

I will be gone Saturday and probably all of sunday. Either start it without me or do it monday.

 

[Matrix]

Monday I have a DDPP powersession.

Never mind, the trip was canceled as my Dad caught a very bad case of poison ivy
