Hi there
saw your note long after it was posted. I am interested in IP and have a cable connection so speed is no problem.
Post here if you would be interested in playing sometime. With a little notice, we could probably come up with a time to play.

I am available tonite, say 7pm-ish est. Also, as far as high speed connections are concerned: whats the deal with that? Reason I am asking is that I can probably get another person to play, but he doesn't have DSL or a cable modem. Is there any valid reason to exclude him from a game because of this?

I am in the mountain time zone and don't get home till about 6pm local so that would be 8 EST at the earliest. . . but my preference is usually to try to get a weekend day where people can commit to a long session
Players have played with phone lines but it seems that it is often VERY slow. The first 10-20 turns are not so bad but then it can get frustrating and if the game goes long at all, a slower player can lead to very long delays.

Tonight is bad for me but I can play on Saturday or pretty much anytime next weekend. Keep me in the loop if those times are good . . .( I am trying to balance my gaming with a wife that works 12 hour shifts-- basically every second weekend I am totally available to play)

wow - I sound a lot like Flubber! My wife is a nurse who works 12 hour shifts every other weekend, only it sounds like the opposite weekends of what Flubber is stating!
Hope you guys got in some good games this weekend!  I may be available next weekend if anyone still wants a game! If you give me an advance notice, I should be available!

OK, just talked to Eggnog324 via AIM. IP Game forming up Friday @ 8pm est! So far the following players are on board:
Eggnog324: Morgan
Darsnan: Gaian
Anyone else want in: post your faction choice here. Eggnog324 is going to post preferences later, and then we can hash out any differences regarding options from there!

8pm EST? What's that in AEST (GMT 10+)? If the time's right I'd most certainly be interested in joining in with the University.

Settings and time look good to me. Also, I can host. On Friday I'll E-Mail my IP address to all people who have signed up (I've already got Psy's and Archaic's - so far I just need Eggnog324's). My E-Mail address is dnandal@twcny.rr.com if anyone wants to get ahold of me that way. FYI.

Nah - I have a "static" DHCP address!  I guess there aren't enough people interested in Cable Modems in my area that it ever gets parcelled elsewhere when I'm offline!
Anyhoo: I've sent my IP address to both Psy and Archaic. I haven't gotten ahold of Egnogg324 yet to give him my address.
I'll be online from now until I start up the game in about an hour, so EGNOGGG324 contact me to get my IP address!

Oh, so you *do* start the game in about an hour? *Phew* I'd been told that DLS over where you are would have meant it started an hour earlier than I thought.
