Just heard from Hammer, he's on holiday right now and won't be available until the weekend of the 30th.
Shadow - what edit do you like? Whew, finally got my original name back. Anyway, the edit will be "DragonSlayer". I would have chosen the Battlestar edit but don't want to be accused of cheating. Lol. I've played DragonSlayer before but not in a year or two so nobody will have an advantage, and it's not one that is banged all that often. The 30th is fine as far as I can tell. Regarding servers, SK, are your stability issues getting better? Micro has offered as well. As for Dragon Slayer - I don't play unlim turns, no more than 5k please. [edit] Ah.. this is a M002 type edit, I'll check with the team see if they have time to devote one whole weekend to a game. If you get unlim turns, I get photons. And - what are the conditions for winning? This game has 4 alien races, cap them to win? Turn death limits on and wack each other? the "stability issues" where mainly caused by my isp not being able to handle 30+ people connected to my server. but i get your point. Micro can host it. as far as the edit i'd suggest you let the sysop pick it. so not one player is too overly familer with the edit. for example dragonslayer is one of shadow's fav edits. just my opinion not that it matters. sk sk

Re: Need a host for a 2v2 challenge game
Since it will only be 6 players, I don't think SK's server would have any stability issues. I'm not sure how well my servers could handle 30 players.
If you want me to host, you get to choose your game server... v1 or v2?

It's OK.. just a M002. How long are they disabled by a photon in an unlim game?

Makes it more interesting. And I don't care about photons really. Turn them on. My preference is a high turn limit, say 25k, but not unlim. Makes photons relevant but not crippling since you get turns back fast. When are we starting this game again? It's gone back and forth so many times I can't remember. Also I would prefer that the alien planets be upgraded using vid's script or similar settings (so they are not easy to take) and that the game be run for a few days in advance to allow aliens to move around.

Next weekend, the 30th. Hammer is still on Holiday this weekend. Let's not make this game run too long, we have the Big Game.. and Summer coming up soon

Re: Need a host for a 2v2 challenge game
Can we keep it to the max 5k turns? We gave Shadow the choice of the edit but Id *Really* prefer to keep it to 5k max.. which is still more than I prefer. However I'll go with the flow as per usual

Re: Need a host for a 2v2 challenge game
OK, how's this... I made the challenge and asked Shadow to choose the edit.
How about we let the host choose the finer details of the settings based on what's been discussed here, or we could debate the finer settings until the cows come home.

Re: Need a host for a 2v2 challenge game
This still happening or are you just going to go ahead and concede before it starts?
