@Arminius, agreed we need more than 7 because of conflicting schedules, but maybe if we start playing as a group, we can attract more members. With all the nay-saying, I think we need to prove ourselves viable.

@bloshoi, you are not known for your sportsmanship when you yourself post a contradiction on the front page of the forums. http://webdiplomacy.net/forum.php?viewthread=840924#840924. Please get off my thread.

Alright, so we now have 8 willing members including stranger. How does Friday 5/23 at 20:00 (8PM) GMT sound? Does that work for a strong majority?

If I'm around I'd be interested, currently GMT and anything up to about midnight is fine.

pjmansfield, you are available from 0000/ 12AM GMT until when GMT?

As long as a game ran. I just wouldn't particularly want to start a game after 0000 expecting that it could go at least 3hrs.

I am just confused by your message. Isn't the current time 0040/12:40AM GMT?

Nope.... its just turned midnight in the UK

And I'm not fixed to that! There are times I end up online later just depends on work

I have cleared up my confusion. We just began daylight savings time here, and that is the cause of my error. Well then, I shall keep you in mind pjmansfield.

That makes 9 possible players. I will log on this Friday around 19/20:00 GMT (corrected myself for DST ;) and see who's around.

dubmdell is dumb. do you see what i did there? i made a pun.
fine, screw you. games take up too much time anyway.
one game takes the time of an entire day of furum trolling.
and i get off more on the forum trolling.

This Friday I will be travelling and as such unavailable for the live game.

Thanks for the heads up Arminius. Be safe traveling.

I'm up for joining this group. The only time I ever CD'd was when I lost power, which isn't something that normally occurs.

I'd love to see this happen, too.

so many gunboats go the way of 'who is lucky enough to be next to the guy who forgot to play?'

An updated list, including our friend Praed whom I forgot to add initially.

1. YadHoGrojaUL
2. NigeeBaby
3. Vaftrudner
4. G1
5. sanctacaris
6. Arminius
7. dubmdell
8. pjmansfield99
9. Poozer
10. BALLS DEEP
11. Praed

Now, I do want to clarify, this is as much a group for the intention of playing together as it is a list of players intending to respect the common courtesies of gunboat. I expect if we ever come up short, we can PM Lando or PE or Barn3tt or Sargmacher, or the Czech, or even Frank. I doubt they would mind the invite and they're all quality players.

To the general community: if you're ever looking for a gunboater who will follow common courtesy, these eleven listed players will be on tap. Invite them if you have a spot to fill and are looking for courteous play..

'or even Frank' +1

I second Sarg

As Sarg/Frank said. These things rarely work out. Instead they prove to be crazy hard to actually use. Particularly given the ridiculous length of live games.

However as the fellow who tried to put together the first live clubs on this site I'm willing to share my experience, feel free to PM if you have any questions, or ask here. I'll try and get back to you.

Just as a reminder to anyone interested, I'll be logging on tomorrow and starting a game around 19/2000 GMT, I will PM whoever in the above list is online at the time first, and as we approach the start of the game, I'll branch out to other known good gun boaters. If the above list has more than six online and desiring to play, I will leave the game after it is created to let someone else in. =)

@damian, I only just saw your post here. I will send you a PM this weekend some time.

I will be around but I am also commited to the BYOB webcam game so we'll have to see if that happens....

The game is set up to begin in an hour. I'll PM everyone on this list, and in the last fifteen minutes, if we need players, I'll PM other known good gun boaters.

gameID=83962

I´d be glad to be added on the list and play some good live gunboats from time to time. I am not online every day though, if this matters.

I sent you the link

I meant password

can I be in? Id love to play..

Add me to the list if there's room.

I would fallow the courtousy thing also. I am on almost everyday

PMing you both now

Cool thanks
