PBW "newbie game"

It did go through, just not on the first try apparently.

I screwed up with the password, which is why it didn't like doing it.

I just uploaded my 2400.2 game file. Let's see if we can't get a couple turns in today.

I uploaded my stuff too, waiting on Spoogy.
Spoogy are you normally playing in the evenings, ET? Am trying to find out best hours of the day to have everybody at their PC and we can play like one turn per 30 minutes for a bit.

Maybe I should have used 3 planet start.. this is kinda slow starting

Phoenix, yes , that's a good lesson for the next game. Most of my experience with PBW (very limited) comes from my first PBW game in which we are now in turn 9, and we started with 5 planets. That makes the game interesting much faster, got some fast and furious diplomacy going on now.
That game (and my low ranking in it) has also given me ideas about a much better race design...if only I could have used it in our newbie game.. sigh.

You know..we're only in turn 3...we could always start over with 3 or 5 planets each and all agree on a timeperiod so we could play the first 5 turns or so quickly...

Or I could just start another game and we play that one too I'll do that now, actually, and try not to screw the setup up this time.

Personally, I like this one planet start. It has potential of being really exciting.
