Unread post Monthly Challenge Tourneys
Well today marks the beginning of our 3rd Monthy Tourney. Each one has had a better turnout than the last.

So now its time to ask ourselves do we want to continue?

I say yes, despite the upcoming "Major" tourneys. By keeping the number of sectors down to 5k, we effectively shorten the game and stop the drag on stalemates that have been the plague of Tournaments the last several years. I actually expect the games to last no more than 7-10 days each.

So if you have a twgs, v1 or v2 and can support 40 nodes or so please post a request to host one of the following games. FIrst come first served :)

Sectors: 5000
Turns: 1200 with a 2 day bank
Corp Size: 4-8
Edit: Sysops Choice (Dont tell anyone until the day before the game)
No Aliens

July 2013 - Twisted Tradewars
August 2013
September 2013
October 2013

As far as the teams go, we can just start listing by corp, except for the players wanting to play for the first time in the monthly

We can assume, unless they say different, Flying Aces, Boo, Inc! and Killbillies will be playing and we can create a list people that would like to join in.

Am I missing anything or would anyone like to add to anything?

Absolutely... This has been a lot of fun...

My TWGS is up, and already has TWX setup on it. I'll try to get on WiFi somewhere for start up tonight, and the bot should have a stable connection from there. I'll try to be at the keys whenever possible, but that may be difficult.

This has been a fun team building experience. Let's keep'm rolling!

I would volunteer to host, but my pre-wide release version locks up once in a while. Not stable enough for a big game.

I could roll-back but then I'd loose the flash client access. Some of the players on my team today were drawn back to the game when I announced the flash client. Now look at them... well, you will see them in action soon enough. :)

I can host if needed, but I prefer to play.
