The morgan player (Smartfart) in the Sealurk alert game has disappeared with no word for 2 weeks so we are seeking a replacement. The year is 2132 and IIRC the powergraps are close between all the factions.
This game was moving pretty rapidly with turns usually getting around all 4 players the same day. We are hoping to maintain this pace and hope to get a player that can commit to getting the turn around reasonably quickly. Real life can cause delays of a few days here and there, and everyone understands that but notice to the other players is appreciated.
The turn thread is here
http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...0&pagenumber=1 and as you can see we have a few players that post a little flavor or storyline to enliven the game.
So if you want in and can commit to USUALLY having a fast turn-around time then post here and the spot is yours. As always the first post in THIS thread gets the spot..
