1650 1 week turn around

[herman]

There are a few of us that have shown an interest in a 1650 1 week turn around game. Would those of you interested get your names down on this thread and if we get enough we will put a list in to Clint to set it up. Only put your name down if you are serious about this, we don't want people dropping or finding it is hurting them in the hip pocket. I personaly think the 12 V 12 grudge format would work best as we won't have a problem with one team picking up too many neutrals.

Regards Herman :)

If you are playing I will always be on the other side.

The best revenge is quick and fast, forget cold and long

Hello I have been in the last 3 one week games.
Dark Lts 135 Dog 138 WK 139

Personally I believe it's better to have regular scenario and not 12 Vs 12. If you want, just to avoid unbalanced game, there can be a rule which would be at most only 3 neutrals can join the same side, so at most you will have in one team 12 nations and in the other 13.
Note that 12 vs 12 games are not so funny as those with neutrals, in which you have to negotiate, and note that 12 vs 12 grudge game is just, ok people Go for them. Let the game win in surprise and let Neutrals to join in the game.

Cheers

Hey I will play whatevers going, I have just seen guys bail from a game because 4 neuts went one way, didn't want to go to all the trouble of filling a game only to have it collapse after 4-5 turns because of something silly.
I don't think you can say to people hey you have to go to team X because three people have already gone to team Y, it is either a free for all or you have do do something like a 12 V 12 to keep it balanced. JMO :)

I'd be up for a one week turnaround game.

*cough* I am ready willing and able to play in the next available 1 week standard 1650 game.

Also count in Keith Michaels ( a co worker of mine)

So that's two.


About 12 vs 12. I really don't see the need. Most competant team players would not allow for such a situation (all neutrals in a standard game joining one side) normally.

I think it's retarded for all the neutrals to join one side. That is sabotaging the games playability. If I knew all the neutrals conspired to join one side, I would be hesitant to join another game with them, and certainly lack trust and faith in them. They are playing for short term personal jollies IMO, and I'd rather see that type of player dangling lifeless from the end of my pike :D

Of course I do not know details of said game occuring. I am speaking in general.

[herman]

Well it was not the huge response I was expecting. We have six down so far, it is the holiday season I suppose so a few people might be away. Let's see if we can't get this game filled quickly.

Regards Herman :D

In the case we're able to recruit more players it will become a grudge.

Very nice !

Have Fun !

[herman]

8 spots filled. Still looking for those interested in a 1 week turn around. Come on guys no waiting 2 weeks for the next turn lets hear from you.

Regards Herman:)

[Gixxer]

Herman,

Bye, Gixxxer

[Clint]

Okay if everyone who is ACTUALLY interested in playing a 1wk game gets in touch with me off list

me@MiddleEarthgames.com

I can then decide if it's worthwhile putting some more effort into getting a game going.

Thanks
Clint (GM)

[Clint]

Okay only one reply so far.... :-) Usually I find that the number of players who post here is NOT indicative of the number of players who are actually ready to sign up to a game. If you want the game guys you need to get in touch with me off list.

If you want to chat that's fine... :-)

Clint (GM)

[svenmoravec]

I am interested, I will be contacting clint. Anyone else actually going to let clint know?

[herman]

As far as I know I am the only one who has actually contacted him and suggested my nations.

Regards Herman

[Clint]

As far as I know I am the only one who has actually contacted him and suggested my nations.

Haven't had anything from "Herman". This is just to see if there is actually a potential game out there. No point me spending a few hours working through all the emails and old players contacting them, dealing with all the enquiries without at least some of the "8" players who want to play here actually committing... :-)

For example many of the players above who is strongly pushing for a 1wk game are actually unable to play - ironic uh?! :-)

So Gixxer is not available, nothing from Thors, Keith, Herman, Sven, Don or Vandal.

I don't mind putting the effort in but you guys need to as well if you actually want this game to occur.

Clint (GM)

[svenmoravec]

I am going to be in, i am just reviewing my nation selection. Was thinking of actually picking some good nations for a change....might be fun.

[herman]

Clint,
Herman is only the nickname I go by, I sent you an E-mail under my actual name. Sorry if this has caused you confusion.

Regards Herman (A.Schultz)

[Clint]

Yep thought it was you but wasn't sure. Okay that's one... :-)

Clint (GM)

[herman]

O.K time to sort the wheat from the refuse. If you want to play in this game, send a mail to Clint. If you don't "SERIOUSLY" want to play don't,........ and don't post on this link.


Clint,
when do you think we will have enough players?



Regards Herman (the bloke keen for a 1 week turn around game!)



:p

[Clint]

when do you think we will have enough players?

Anything from 2wks to never.

Clint (GM)

[svenmoravec]

my nations are submitted

[Thors]

*Bump*

Game 139 just ended, which was the most recent 1 week game.

I expect others to request another go at it now.

[Clint]

my nations are submitted

Hello Sven - I haven't got anything from you at present.

Clint (GM)

[svenmoravec]

I will send them again Clint. You even responded personally because I asked if you had any close guess to how long it would take. I said if it takes longer than a month then I will join a different game.....wish I had saved it.
