Default Re: So, any hosted MP Dom3 games starting up?

My guess is that potential hosts realize that the first few MP games announced here are going to be both (a) filled eagerly and immediately and (b) fraught with minor but annoying technical difficulties. I sympathize entirely, and I am not brave enough to step forward.

If I were, though, I would name the game "Fools Rush In".

Yes, forum MP game would be nice. We could start several games, one for newbies, another for experienced players. This way everybody could find opponents on their level.

I'm currently tied up in two major time consuming DOM-II MP games. Once I get free of at least one of them I'll host a small-medium sized PBEM.

Hmmm, is there another place people meet to set up PBEM games? Unfortunately I don't have the time to host one but I'd love to join one and it doesn't look like anybody's stepping forward here.

There's a place where people organize quick blitz games. #dominions on irc.gamesurge.net . You need an IRC client, too. Blitz games are fast and furious, and if they take too long someone leaves and it's very hard to get the exact same people there at the same time again to continue the game, so longer games don't work.
