Tuesday night game

[unmerged(11287)]

First off, what I meant by the core claiming rule is that if you own a province for long enough (60-70 years) you can claim it as a core province. I don't think we should do this with colonies though.

Second, I can do any time this week and next, but after that, most likely not. I can do basically any time on the weekends though, if we want to switch a session to that day.

Could we do a reward system to promote AARs? (-1 inflation, 300D, etc., etc.)

No Core claiming, absolutely not, as i said, cores and cultures are there to stop warmongering, these obstacles give everyone more chances to recover from bad decades because it stops the enemy from taking a lot.

We can play on saturdays and sundays, why not? but it depends on others and unfortunately you're only one wanting this. for my part no problem.

Reward system? No, AARs should be made for fun, if we apply a reward system we will lose quality, and we will win quantity. An AAR hasn't have to be a bible or a novel, it can be a diplomatic letter even, 5 or 6 lines, AARs are part of one's role`playing. I will never right an AAR based on my moves, i don't want anyone to know what i exactly did or how, but I'm really interested in others to know my good diplomatic moves.

I'm definitely for( i have summer till end of September but i know that not everyone has...), so what about weekend(one more session???)... Think it over please...

Star Blade

Guys, it's important you notice we're playing 2 sessions this month, tuesdays and thursdays, I was thinking in adding one more session, maybe on saturdays. as i said it's important we take advantage of these 2 weeks.

NOW, after this month we will have to discuss how much sessions we're able to play and when exactly.

My idea; 3 sessions in August, tuesdays, thursdays and saturdays(?) during nights.

2 or 1 session in September, weekends(fridays and saturdays evenings or nights?) think about it and post your ideas in the thread

As You may know Ghost Dog is willing to play with us(he can't post because since Sunday he haven't got his second letter from Paradox allowing him to do that....).

Firstly he missed the time due to my mistake because i was sure that we start at 21 CET not 22 CET ( i really don't know why....maybe i was too enthusiastic about our game...). When i checked when we start he was offline and wasn't able to read my post to him.

Secondly he had some trouble with access to his computer(because his wife used it for work) and he wasn't able to arrive at time yesterday(22 CET).

I hope that all of You agree to ad him as Sweden (steady player) in our game.

Star Blade

welcome him as Sweden then, we need one for tonight.

 

[unmerged(11287)]

So tomorrow from 20 CET to 01 , am i right?
Star, we'll decide tomorrow in the game about weekend.

Btw, I posted this at 11.45pm, check out your time papachubby. Gmt is CET-1 but European summer time is now one hour forward so it could be CET-2.

We will get together at 20:00 CET (that's 19:00 GMT) I don't know when TT4 is going to show today, but we will play once we have everyone's in, anyhow, i encourage everyone to show at 20:00 CET, no matter if we're going to begin in time or an hour later, we can get together in a multi-chat and discuss things meanwhile ppl come.

+1 GMT (add an hour to GMT) = CET
an example, 12:00 CET = 11:00 GMT

 

[unmerged(11287)]

Actually there is a purpose Aryus. You get increased build capacity, more manpower, and one other thing I have forgotten. (plus the free CB)

Also, is 2000 2 hours ahead of starting time? (just want to make sure)

2 hours behind tuesday session

are you able to be at 19:00 GMT (20:00 CET) in time?

 

[unmerged(47788)]

I will be today. I promise. Sorry all for tuesday. See You 20.00

 

[unmerged(22264)]

Oh, you start playing 2h earlier? I don't know if I'll be home at 20 sharp, but hopefully I can make it.

wowowow....Settle down for awhile plz, guys!
I feel, some descisions right now is just posted and then they are suddenly aplied with not even asking the rest of the players.
By agreeing on playing today (thursday) I didnt agree to have thursday´s as an extra sessionday. I start school on monday and as I´ve stated before I have to evaluate the workload before taking on to much EUII gaming.
Second, First we said 2200CET tonight, then it was 2100, now its 2000.
Are we gonna have a 5 hour session today?? No more than 4 hours IMO.
Concerning the core issue:
I thought the rules was set?
On the other hand, if a player put up things he want to be changed for various reasons, are you the new GM pibe? Cause if u are u should post it so its official. Who´s running the show?? Looks more and more like the wild, wild west in here atm to me...

Update of first page..

Aryus - ad to first page that we play 2 times per week(at different hours!!!) and to those who haven't read it yet, that we wish to play Saturday or Sunday....

I hope that today everyone will be able to say if he can or not play at weekend...

I think I got the time in order...... I hesitate to say that I got it down cold because I thought so before last times session. Though I can promise I will be there, I'll just probably have to be checking on the Vnet all afternoon. This seems to be the right way towards paranoia.

I'll be playing as Muscovy, but if there is someone willing to tell me what they observed the sub doing and what he did with MY country. I noticed that Pskov has become a part of the country, but has anything else gone down. Also what year is it ?

Being a relative Noob in MP I'dont really have anything to add to the core-claiming rule. Though I don't like the idea of rewarding AAR's, at least to such an excessive degree (300D, -1 infl.). Thats just way to much.

we're all nonessential.

 

[unmerged(11287)]

every game's got 5 hour session, zag. and no, I'm not a GM, I'm your Host, respect

At the moment you're the only one complaining about times and the number of sessions.

we will discuss a permanent day/days for this campaign after this session, no need to open many discussion fronts for now. apparently we can't count with TT4 during weekdays, moreover Zag doesn't want to play more than a session, and sessions should be "short" 4 or less hours. just pointing the obstacles out

 

[unmerged(11287)]

any sub/perm for Sweden, guys?

ohh and a recomendation for everyone, open this thread at the first page and keep it opened during this session, you can tab out to check rules in game.

12) Don't alt-tab out of the game. The game might crash if you alt-tab.

This is from the FAQ.

It does not seem such a good idea to be Alt-tabbing during the game.

 

[unmerged(45041)]

No pibe, not every game play 5 hours. In fact, many games play 4hours.
I do respect you, cant remember having said anything disrepectful to you or anyone else.

Was not complaining, merely pointing out the obvious: First the thursday session was gonna start at 2200CET. Yourself pointed out that ppl should be there atleast 21:50 CET to be on time. Then without really asking ppl, the new time was 2100CET and now it´s 2000CET. And when we talked about this session today it only was an "extra" session. Now it sounds like it´s stated as an extra gameday. And no, I´m not against an extra gameday BUT as I´ve said again and again: I cant take on to much before I know I can handle it. Or would you guys prefer me to promise things I cant deliever?

When we signed on for this campaign, it clearly said:
tuesdays 2200-0100CET. Correct?
Even if the GM is ruler and dictator of the game, he or noone else just cant change the timelines without the ENTIRE groups conscent.

Zag is right in many things. First of all the GM can be only Aryus, because he developed this idea... Secondly we should all agree to new sessions and of course starting time....

But i think that the best idea is to talk about it tonight during session(or even better before it!!!)

And to ad sth i have posted to update the first page because it should be changed: Sweden is Ghost, time of today game is not mention....

But i hope that all of You manage to arrive today...

then print rules, you're right

 

[unmerged(11287)]

don't psychoanalyse anything

this is an extra session, hopefully we repeat until the month's over

even tuesdays aren't a perm session time, at least it's permanent during this month. TT4 can't make weekdays. if times are a problem, we can discuss it today before session.

 

[unmerged(11287)]

WE MEET IN VNET AT 20:00 CET (2 hours and 30 minutes from now) don't forget
