Anyone got a link where I could go read about this cheesy, "abusive", little skill using strategy? I keep hearing about it, but I don't know the real details. Just curious. Same with the VQ. As you can see, I'm sort of new around here.

Can we please limit Posts in this thread to those discussing the actual "Play the World" game, and not Norfleet? Thanks.

. It is cheesy and abusive, but to do well it definitely requires expert skills. Otherwise, you just have some second-rate Norfleet wannabe.

Also, I'm curious about Stormbinder's constant use of the word "abusive".
I guess you'll have to continue to be curious. In case you didn't get any of the earlier hints, this thread is not for the discussion of norfleet or stormbinder. I am afraid you'll have to go and preach for your hero elsewhere.

An on-topic question:

any ETA on when this is going to start?

Norfleet is an unknown quantity at this point

As of right now, we have 10 confirmed returning victims, but Firebreath(Arco) does not appear to have uploaded yet. While we're slightly on the thin side, if there's no other interest expressed in (re)joining, we can start as soon as he's in.

Sorry for the delay...I've been waiting for things to start for so long that I forgot to check

I'm going away this evening for 2 days, so it's probably best that you start without me.

That's okay, we can wait two days. Gives us more time to possibly get more victims. 9 is a little too thin for the World map.

That's up to you, though I'll be away next week as well (for about 4 days...)

So if you want to wait, that's nice. If not, that's fine too.

I suspect that Firebreath is just one of many people in this game who are away or busy over the U.S. holiday weekend.

Victim list:

Caelum: Me.
Mictlan: izaqyos
Vanheim: Tuidjy
Ulm: Yvelina
C'tis: Argitoth
Arco: (Firebreath)
Mary: Zombie
Jot: Vigabrand
Aby: Cohen
Pan: Vynd
R'lyeh: Xodan (DomX)

Well, we have about 10 or 11 people. This is slightly on the thin side for the World Map.

Depending on whether Firebreath would like to join, and perhaps find somebody to fill in for him while he's away, or abstain, we can maybe start Real Soon Now(tm). Is everyone ready for the gruelfest that this slightly underpopulated map is going to produce? Or shall we hold for more victims and hope that our existing victims don't lose interest?
