Lennox, timezone?

BTW, Starship, I can send you 1.07 if you want...
The site magically came back up so I'm all set now.

EDIT: About DSL, that should be fine, too but still I'm worried about dial-up. We'll have to keep the speed down.

To recap...

Patch: 1.07 vanilla
Start: 1492
Players:
HemlockGrey, EST: Sweden
StarshipTitanic, EST: Muscowy/Russia
Blkbrry, ???: France
PrinceofLowLight, EST: England
Captain Lennox, CST: ??? (Austria or thereabouts would be nice, we need a human central European player)

I think a game starting at 12 AM EST and ending at 2 AM on Saturdays weekly (when possible) is a good idea. Remember, we will have to run the game very slowly since we think, unlike the AI. :D We can conduct major diplomacy on the board, including treaties undecided ingame, etc.

I do warn you (namely Sweden) that if you (namely Sweden) even thinks of taking advantage of my Time of Troubles, I will rant at and taunt you (namely Sweden) for the entire game while harboring homicidal and suicidal tendencies that can only spell bad things for you (namely Sweden).

I'm speaking from experience here. :evil: :wink:

I would postpone it to the 2nd week in Sept, if that's ok- school starts for me next week, and Lennox needs to post his country.

I'm thinking, Wed, 8 pm EST.

That's my first day of school, I'll be stockpiling stuff. I'd prefer if these were limited to Fridays and Saturdays, it makes is so much easier timewise. Weekdays are too unpredictable, I might need to finish a few essays. :D

Idea: Should we support the idea of selling and buying provinces by editing the savegame file? This is possible with some programs the host can download. Basically territory ownership and treasury sizes would be edited.

Austria sounds nice...though I can be Bradenberg and if dial up is a problem I'll high til it out of the game.

No no, it'll be ok. Brandenburg is just as good, go ahead.

Unless I need to school shop, I should be able to play Thursday night. Can we possibly start then?

Oops...

I had tons of work to do that night, anyway, so I couldn't have possibly played. We need better scheduling.
