[denxis1]

well your honest I am new to the game too anybody else looking for a try at this game ?

[Trent]

I could be free for a game too I'm advanced though, i play for 3 years on board.

[denxis1]

well looks like may be a start here...

[Trent]

Indeed, so, do you want to take the lead ?

[denxis1]

Ok just to get things started as my experience is a bit limited with the game. Joining will be a first come first serve basis i.e. first 7 people to request entry in the game with a post here will be the lucky few. We will sort out the details as we go.

Trent = preference for GB or Austria ( Mst-arnault@hotmail.com )
Denxis = ?
ECN1 = ? ( ecn1@cornell.edu )

Leopoldo = ? ( leopoldopb@gmail.com )

i would like to skip the bet.

[ecn1]

i would prefer not to skip bidding as I think its the fairest means of selection...but if I am outvoted I am outvoted

I am also interested. I haven't played in years and some of the rules are a little different from what I remember from about 20(?) years ago or so. I have been playing the PC and I am trying to figure out the email game system with a friend. I can be reached at:

larrywrose@yahoo.com

Thanks

I would like to play, too. I think this makes seven?

[larrywrose]

Looks like we have our game:
leopoldo
denxis1 Denis
Trent
ecn1 Erik
Kayuucee Kenneth Crist
Larrywrose Larry W. Rose
Agt4533
 
The only problem with bidding is that several players are new and could eaisly overbid. On the other hand it looks like it is going to be a learning game anyway. Denis are you going to host? If not I will volunteer. This looks like a first for all of us. Looking forward to having some fun here.

Larry since you volunteered to host your it.. as long as all agree I have no problem with it.

I do think we need to take a vote on bidding. I would like to try bidding as it adds another layer of decision making to the game but it is not a big point with me either.

As its stands now on bidding looks like the current votes are.

Y bid - N no bidding


Leopoldo - ?
denxis1 Denis - Y
Trent - N
ecn1 Erik - Y
Kayuucee Kenneth Crist - ?
Larrywrose Larry W. Rose - ?
Agt4533 - ?


If we end up not bidding I would like Russia or Turkey but I am agreeable to just about any country.

Thanks for the post yes if we have a drop out you are most welcome.

[AGT4533]

Yes to bidding.

[Trent]

I suggest to you guys to create a group or a forum somewhere to make our diplomacy. Plus, i would like to know when people are disposed to start ?

and well, let's bid... forget what i said before.

[Kayuucee]

I vote for bidding.

As this is a first time for some people, I suggest that we try a simple bid system. When bidding use the numbers 1 through 7. 7 being for the country you most want, 1 for the least. You cannot use the same number more than once.

This will prevent over bidding.

Here is a great site to make the game Forum. I like it better than Yahoo.

http://myfreeforum.org/

Let me add.....It's like a real forum and the creator can add private threads, host files, etc like a normal board.
