Must be tough getting a game like that started, not to mention waiting on players to submit.

I think we had a few bumps at the begining, but it wasn't that bad...... was it?

Yes Ruatha, we are friends in NGC! I just had the game initials wrong.

WRT the game logistics, I think it's going rather well, with almost everyone submitting on time or even early. The first 40 turns have taken less than 6 weeks, haven't they?

I'm still having withdrawl pains with PBW down. I'm not even sure that I'll remember what my plans were for any of the 4 games I'm in the games after more than a week off...Greybeard

Well, due to it being my first time as admin it was a bit "bumpy" in the beginning.
It's set on 48 hours turn time but it isn't many turns that has been run due to time-outs, most has uplaoded before the turn time is out. I think we've had one or two replacements early, but since then none.
So now it runs at approximately the same turn-over time as the other two games I'm in (with 8 players each). (Wich means I get three games at once and then have to waith atleast a day to play again....)

Sounds good. I'm in 2 games (one admin'd by me and the other by someone else). One game started with 8 empires but has had several drops and many "time-out" executions. Sounds like you got a bit lucky.

The one I admin has 4 players (now) and it's taken about 3 weeks to get up to turn 27 (or so...I can't remember it's been so long

)

I finally got through to someone at the parts supplier and got a tracking number. UPS has it and scheduled delivery is today.

Cross your fingers.

HotDamn, now you can run home and install that puppy, cross your fingers and give it the boot. And all things willing, you are back on line. You going to just trust it�s quality, or are you going to do some burn in testing?
