Opponents Wanted for Tournament Game

Mongoose · September 3, 2002, 12:59

SMAC or SMAX

H0bbes · September 3, 2002, 18:05

Sign me up, either is OK.

Hobbes

Random map with 3 AI and 4 human or 4 human players on tournament map?

Mongoose · September 4, 2002, 02:26

I don't much like the tournament map. I would prefer greatly to use a random map.

Paul · September 4, 2002, 03:18

I'd like one more game. UoP or PK as preferred factions.

xeno7667 · September 4, 2002, 05:51

If random map with 7 factions, sign me up for Gaians

Mongoose · September 4, 2002, 08:23

Shall we play SMAC, since Paul and Xeno have each selected one of the original factions?

Any interest in using a large as opposed to a standard map?

I think I would like to play the Hive.

xeno7667 · September 4, 2002, 10:25

SMAC ok for me, standard, large or huge also ok for me

Paul · September 4, 2002, 12:18

SMAC or SMAX are both ok for me. And I like larger maps so large or huge is ok for me.

Tau Ceti · September 4, 2002, 14:22

I think all the players here have SMACX, so it is just a matter of preference.

And large or huge then? I suspect Mongoose might prefer large, unless he is a much stronger Hive player than I am.

Any other custom settings you would like?

I will also need a faction choice for H0bbes.

H0bbes · September 4, 2002, 17:51

Large map preferred. I'll take Sparta.

Mongoose · September 4, 2002, 18:15

Large here, too.

So...SMAC, large map, Transcend, avg. rainfall, avg. erosion, middle ocean coverage, avg. native life, directed research, no random events, no unity survey, lots o' pods

, no spoils, no tech stag. Right?

Paul - UoP (I presume

Xeno - Gaia, Hobbes- Sparta, Mong - Hive

TC needs a free tech for you, Paul. I need Xeno's addy; I have Paul's and H0bbes'

Mine is jlnader@mindspring.com

xeno7667 · September 5, 2002, 01:29

xeno7667@bluemail.ch

Tau Ceti · September 5, 2002, 04:14

I do not need the tech choice in a SMAC game, since I can make those start in 2101 and let the University choose its own tech. (I can start SMACX games in 2101 as well, but only if I manually place all fungal towers back on the map after saving it, which is too much of a pain.)

So I have everything I need. Today and tonight look fairly busy for me, but I should be able to get it started some time tomorrow.

Dreifels · September 5, 2002, 04:28

note me. (preferring smacx with mixed factions (smac/smacx))

Tau Ceti · September 6, 2002, 14:25

Hmm.. Tournament games are limited to four players. I do not mind making a five-player game, but it would be outside the confines of the tournament.

Do the other four of you want to add Dreifels and make it a five-player game, or keep it as originally intended with four players?

DilithiumDad · September 6, 2002, 14:40

How about making a second tournament game with me and Dreifus? We could use same parameters (SMAC, large random) to make a dual start easier.

Faction preferences are UofP > PK's > Gaians > Morganites > Hive > Spartans > Believers

Mongoose · September 6, 2002, 14:46

I want to play within the tourney...as per the thread title.

Dreifels · September 6, 2002, 15:44

OK, np. Tell me when you need one, I'm free.

Tau Ceti · September 6, 2002, 16:42

More tournament games are always welcome.

I notice xeno7667 stated his interest in the ordinary signup thread as well - are you interested in joining DilithiumDad and Dreifels in another one, xeno? And Dreifels, are you interested in playing plain SMAC (DDad does not play SMACX MP)? I already have some previous signups that could be the fourth player, for example EmperorJay. Sound good?

The first game will probably be delayed till tomorrow. Sorry.

Dreifels · September 6, 2002, 17:18

I play all: plain SMAC, plain SMACX, mixed both

xeno7667 · September 7, 2002, 09:31

Yep, I am interested in 2 games. But only with 7 fraction on random map.
