I'd like to participate in this as well, with the 72hour no QH i'll even be able to savor it. I'll be taking Abysia into the fray.

[edit]
might i also suggest that as an addittional rule, 20 points be awarded for each global spell a nation has in play on turn 60?

We have 7 registrations, but Ulm is still anonymous. I'll give it another 48 hours from the time of this post, then kick out anyone that's still anonymous and start the game.

Hey Zap!
Is there any way for me to change my faction to Jotunheim? It's okay if that's too much trouble.

Vanheim's open?! I want it! The One-Eyed Bastard rides again!

But guys, this game will Last for six months. Don't you think that it just may be worth to wait for a week or so before we start it, so that we can have as many players as possible? The cradle map is quite large, and seven players may take too long to meet.

[edit]

Is Vanheim open or not? In order for anyone to upload a new prentender, the slot has to be marked as annonymous, and then the game owner has to delete the annonymous entries...

It may be a good idea to make the time between hosting a
factor of 168 hours. That way, the hosting would happen
at the same time of the week.

The game is about to start. I've settled on a turnaround time of 84 hours, which is exactly 2 turns per week. Yarns should be posted here, and are due at the same time as each turn. I'll maintain a running total of yarn points in the first post of this thread.

Note that the map is Zen's modified Cradle map, which may be downloaded from http://www.techno-mage.com/~zen/zencradle.zip if you don't already have it. The map and tga files must be renamed to cradlez14.map and cradlez14.tga respectively.

Edit: Actually, I think that the link above only gets you the .map file. The .tga is the same file as for the regular Cradle map, which can be copied and renamed cradlez14.tga

Good luck everybody.

Um....
What's a file? That's something chicks do they're finger-tips with....right?
Okay, I'm not all that computer illeritit. But I'm going to need some help with this one. I have the zen_cradle map downloaded. Now, should I move it into the yarnspinner game folder? (and change it's name to cradlez14.map) And then move the regular Cradle map to Yarnspinners and change it's name to cradlez14.tga)
Because if that's what I need to do....it's not working...

Please Help....Simple is good!
