PBEM6: E-MAIL & TECHNICAL ISSUES

[athlete4life10]

PM'd Sunrise so hopefully we'll have an update sooner than later...

Guys I'd like to take a moment to propose a re-vote about Screenshots before paper. I have a strong preference for this being allowed and as presented in most other games that have it off it makes early diplomacy so much more difficult/awkward. Are you guys set to have it turned off or would you mind switching the vote?

I'm ok either way. Let's hope the game can start soon.

Let me try to get the game up today (or at least the map done....I may need to post for help about how to actually start the PBEM if I can't figure it out.

If it doesn't get up today you can make other arrangements without hard feelings on my end.

Thx. To get the game up, save the map as a worldbuilder save, then start up a new 'custom scenario' PBEM game, choose the WB save, then set up the settings and start the game. Assign a password for the first civ (can be changed according to Ruff), then save the game and send it to the first guy accompanied by the password.

Alternatively, just send the WB save to the first player and have him do the starting. Gets it off your plate if you're cramped on time. I did this for PBEMs 2 and 5.

Great, Sunrise! I'm sure one of us can start it up.

Sunrise,

Did you have any luck with the map? If you're near completion I'm sure we can wait another day or 2 but if not than we'll get looking for somebody else. Can you let us know:

a) If you're finished?

or

b) How much more time you might need?

Atleast that way we can make a decision...

Thanks,

Athlete

/edit - pm'd this to sunrise

[athlete4life10]

K well...Sunrise never got back to us...I figure that's enough time...

Do we have any lurker that would like to take on mapmaking duties for us?

[Bobchillingworth]

I'd be willing to make a map- I don't have any experience crafting MP maps, but I assume it can't be too hard :P Got a concept that I've been thinking about for a while, actually.


Main issue, besides my inexperience, is that it will take me a few hours to make it- which depending on how busy I am after work means that it might not be finished until Saturday.


Let me know if you're interested =)

[athlete4life10]

sounds fine to me bob! I'm sure if you post it before hand in the lurker thread you'll get some feedback...
