[PB61 Tech Thread] New Pitboss - Greens (new player / newish)

Quote:Ah. Well i think the only worry with First time posters is just to have a dedlurker that can take over if you uh, dont show up again.



Fortunately, I think I'm pretty good at committing to things, so that shouldn't be a problem. That being said I'd appreciate having a dedlurker anyway so that's a non-issue for me

Long time Sullla content consumer + Civ4 SP player. El Grillo and Amicalola convinced me to join up. I am *tentatively* interested.... but couldn't really start before the weekend of July 3rd, as I'll be out of town to visit family soon, and won't be able to play during that time.

So - if this has trouble firing, then I'd be happy to join, but if this fills up, then you all should start without me.

Added both. Start date can definitely be set for after July 4th. I was going to leave sign ups open for a couple of weeks at least (end 27th say). Figure with picking and map creating +1 week gets us there. This isn't the whirlwind signup starting that was PB60.

I don't have a specific number to "fill" per se. 5 is already a good number for a greens game, but hopefully get a few more.

As tempting as it is, I don't think I can commit to ded-lurking with my upcoming work schedule, but I'll be lurking generally as usual. Hope everyone has a great time smile

I have a very rough idea of a map, but I'll need a player count before I can start doing more than think of starts. Six players would be best for balancing reasons.
Playing: PB74
Played: PB58 - PB59 - PB62 - PB66 - PB67
Dedlurked: PB56 (Amicalola) - PB72 (Greenline)
Maps: PB60 - PB61 - PB63 - PB68 - PB70 - PB73 - PB76

Especially with a couple people not being able to start for a couple weeks leaving it open to see how many greens we can snag nod . More greens the better! I don't know if we will know the number until signups end. We can end signups a few days sooner if you think you need an extra couple days / weekend to work on.

DO IT! 

Initial turns do not take a lot of time.
