Week Night Warriors

drake · October 12, 2000, 15:26

I'm looking for a few reliable people who would like to play games primarily on Week Nights, a few hours at a time until a games completion. (say 6pm EST- 9:30pm EST )RELIABLE is the key word-people who want a long term game and will be there when they say they will. Traditional Games (movement and production) at Deity level, standard map, are preferred. No spaceship builders please. Looking to start 10/16......

Hey Drake.... weeknights are my best time to play....especially Tues/Wed/Thur. from 6pm PDT till ??. There are several other PDT players that would like to get a weeknight game going. Your suggested settings are fine. Lets get something going.

6pm PT is 10pm EST right? That would be alright I suppose. I could be tired going in to work a few days a week. If we're not starting til' that late (for me), I really can't play longer than say, 3 hours. I think two set days a week would be perfect- I know I could always be there and I can still have a life the rest of the week (key). If we get a good game going, perhaps it could be three days a week. I don't know. I am also proposing that there be no more than four people. Doing so increases the chance that everyone can't make it and damn, it slows the game down too much. Round time limits should be fairly strict as well.

Wednesdays are ideal for me, and the only day during the week that I get to do anything other than school/work/other ****.

drake · October 13, 2000, 14:59

Capo- what do you think about the time that Nap proposed- 6pm PT (10pm EST)on ? It's a little late to get started up here on the east coast but perhaps it's negotiable. Is once a week for a few hours enough to get a serious game rolling?? Could you do another weeknight other than wenesday? If starting at 10 PM, I would think it would fit into your (college right?) schedule at least one other week night.

Nap Bonaparte · October 13, 2000, 20:41

Actually Drake, 6pm PDT is 9pm EDT. I will contact some other PDT area players and see if they are interested.

drake · October 14, 2000, 02:42

I plead ignorance when it comes to time zones- If I'm going to start late I would prefer starting before 6 PT (9 EST) if possible. Wenesdays work.

I won't be able to play from nine PDT, becuase I am in Baltimore, and I can't stay up that late for Civilizatoin.

Potsy-KTC · October 15, 2000, 14:45

I would like to supplement my gaming schedule with a weeknight game, and wednesday is perfect. I also am on the west coast, so 6 PDT is good for me, if you will have me.

drake · October 16, 2000, 09:39

A wednesday game sounds good guys. Is 6pm PT the earliest that you guys can get this going? If we can get it going any earlier, all the better for me. So Nap and Potsy- you guys in for this? I know it's late to start a game Capo, sorry. You guys talk to anyone else about getting in? One or two more people would be great. I'd be up to start this week. Anyone like to host-I've had problems in the past. So, you guys are ok with the proposed rules? Are we going to be able to do this every week until the game's done?

Drake.....I will commit to an EVERY Wed. night game....I can maybe start as early as 5:30 pm.....but I am leaving on vacation in a couple of days. If possible, maybe we can start the game on Wed. Nov. 1st and use the intervening time to assemble a core of committed, dedicated players.

Potsy-KTC · October 17, 2000, 21:33

I can host because I HAVE DSL!!! Yes, it rules. I can play EVERY wednesday, 6-10 or 11. I would like to start this week, but would rather wait for COMMITTED players.
My 2 cents.

drake · October 17, 2000, 22:50

Wed. NOVEMBER 1st- 6PM PST- and every Wed. until completion, I would have been here, cept' no one else seemed interested...so I found a new game.....

frankdog · October 18, 2000, 19:29

I could play or sub after 8 pm PST. Hey, I have DSL now too.
Potsy.... I am curious to try a DSL only game... even if it's a one evening test?

Nap Bonaparte · October 19, 2000, 10:32

Hey Frankdogg....whats up??? There are several players interested in a weeknight game. Maybe we could split it up into 2 games based on time zones/hours of availability. Frankdog...if you are interested in an ongoing 6pm PST game on Wed. nights post under the Pluel thread.

Potsy-KTC · October 20, 2000, 10:43

Sure Frankdogg. Good to see you again. Have you checked out the gigadiplo game thread? I think we still need some players.
Anyway - I'm available tonight, anytime after 7pm PST, or we can set something up for tomorrow night.
I'm at work so I don't have my ICQ# handy - i'll post it later.

Potsy-KTC · October 24, 2000, 00:04

I forgot to post my icq.

Potsy-KTC · November 1, 2000, 15:17

Hey, is this game still gonna happen tonight?

drake · November 1, 2000, 15:32

I found another game on wednesdays- but I can't speak for anyone else. This might still be on. I did open this thread, so I thought it only fair to let you know that I won't be in. There just didnt seem to be much interest........see Pluel thread if you're still looking for a game.....

sorry

Potsy-KTC · November 1, 2000, 15:56

That's cool. I was thinking about the pluel anyway.
