Turnplayers

[Tinkerbell]

I think we need a list of people who can act as turnplayers. Please post here when you are available and your level of experience.

I can be a turnplayer. This is my first internet Civ game, so I prefer not to be (one of) the default turnplayer(s).

Right now my schedule permits for 3pm - 9pm on weekdays (except for wed 3pm - 6:30pm)
Weekends I'm basically free.
SP Mod player, so my knowledge of the base game's skill and multiplayer are a lil shaddy.

Note: my parents like to "randomize" my schedule, so I may not be able to make it sometimes.

 

[HUSch]

I can play, but not in wars!

My expirience is more Intelligence and Town-Government and pbem not pitboss.

Not every day possible Time: 10 am til 1 am GWT, (that is 5 am to 8 pm New York time, I think)

 

[DaveShack]

I can play. My usual weekday times are 8-10 AM and 8-11PM MST. (GMT-7)
That's 1500-1700 and 0300-0600 GMT respectively.
Weekends are random hours all over the place.

 

[peter grimes]

I can play. My availability is 8am - 5pm EST = 1300 - 2200 GMT

Weekends are not good, but I can come to work to play in an emergency.

 

[topas]

I can play if needed.

Usually I am available from 10am till 12pm GMT.

 

[Unionfield]

Once I get a computer, I can be the turnplayer, if needed.

 

[Rantamplanzzz]

I can be a turn player, but sincerelly im not interested in donig it so as long as there is enough people for doing it i prefer to step aside.

I supose that not being a turn player i can still log into the game for checking as logn as i dont touch anything ¿right?

Yes - just don't move units, accept diplomatic trades, anything that's irreversible. Basically, you can scroll around the map, look at the F1-F12 screens, examine cities and move citizens from different tiles [you must put them back, though! ], and adjust the research/culture/espionage slider [you must reset these to the original values as well ]

I'm confused. I thought that HUSch was going to be our turnplayer for now. But it seems as if he's not doing it anymore.

I feel more comfortable with him playing the turns because he's the one who articulated the early game plan, and he's the one gathering data from the Demographics screen.

HUSch - are you unable to be turnplayer still?

 

[HUSch]

I can play often, but the last days were heavy in RL. And so another has played and it's good.

 

[Tinkerbell]

Let me know when someone else needs to do the turns. I just don't want to play if it's not approved off.

 

[peter grimes]

So is Tinkerbe11 the Official Turnplayer now, or is HUSch going to do it again? I'm really fine iwth either - but I don't like the fact that we're all in the dark about this. It's very important to know who is responsible for playing the save

Also, if there's a time when it is known in advance that the turnplayer can't guarantee that he will be able to play the turn on time, an announcement must be made so that a secondary turnplayer can step up.

Sorry if it seems I'm ranting, but I'm just used to teams that have a lot more formal organization.

I'm certain all of this is just 'growing pains'

pg
I can just second every word you said

I'm fine with either turenplayer, but we should determine one.
Our turnplayer should lead the discussion upon our turn and move/act as the team decided.
In case our turnplayer is absent (especially when he is absent upon notice before), a backup-turnplayer takes over, but here as well: we have to know in advance who is in charge!
