Hello:

I am the host for the PBEM random / no diplomacy game (which has its own thread). One player (Teal) will be leaving and the end of this week. So, we are looking for a replacement player.

Any takers? We'd prefer to have no AI in this game.

The rules of the game (secret, random assignment of nations) means that we don't know. Pasha knows, because PASHA KNOWS ALL.

If you really want to know before committing to stepping in - send pasha a PM.

Hi shovah:

You did not respond to my PM to you, and so I assumed that you had decided against joining the game. Are you still interested? Since you were the first to inquire, I figure that you have first dibs. If you would prefer to pass, then the slot will go to Ygorl.

Problem is, if he tells a replacement about the nation & pretender, then he has to keep track of whom he has told, because if the player says "No", then they'll know that nation and the player who did take over the nation.

It's things like this that make the logistics of a 17 player anonymous game a nightmare, since someone is always needing a temporary substitute or a replacement player. Many thanks to Pasha and Alneyan for doing it.

Hi Shovah:

I actually responded to your PM days ago.

I will send you another.

Ah! But the dynamic is quite fun to watch as the "disinterested" but omniscient host. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Shovah - - did you get the PM?

If not, then maybe you should contact me by email: whscom [at] maine *Dot* com

We need to get a replacement in by this weekend.

Hi Shovah!

Please let me know by the end of today (Friday) if you're still interested, because I'd like to fill the empty slot by tomorrow. Feel free to send me an email. (See above). http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Ok. Given that shovah has not checked in here for days, I will assume that he is no longer interested.

Ygorl! You're up, if still interested. I will send you a PM.

You should rate the nation which is open:

Is it cool or lame, rate it from 1 to 10! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

But, every nation's a 10! Except mine, which is an 11.

No, seriously, correlating with graphs you could then glean estimates on who's who (assuming you could guess on how Pasha rated the nations): specifically, which nation is being played by a sub who supposedly lacks information and other assets a regular player has, thus making him a prime target for aggression.

The nation up for grabs provides an excellent opportunity to squish Griffin and Jurri. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/stupid.gif

I so want to cut Jurri up! Besides, I already know what nation he is playing, so that would be perfect. Give'em to me!

(Warning: I am not being serious - as is usual)

PashaDawg

Hmmmm... maybe I WILL give it to Alneyan. We'd all like a taste of roasted Jurri. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Ygorl has agreed to take over for Teal.

Welcome!!!

Welcome, Ygorl! And watch out for *crackle-hisssssss-crackle* because he's got several *crackle-hisssssssss* and a bunch of *hissssss-crackle* running around near *hissss-crackle-hisssss*
