TA, my all time GR is 200-400 I think... if you need more info, i can find myself.,.. but i figured i'd see if i can get away with some laziness.

Student
Sept 2013 GR: 781

I can help out as a part time professor if needed, I would be able to get a post in every year at least. My GR in Sept is 6, all time is 23.

Triumvir, your all time is 293. achillies yours is 231.

Im not sure about mine in that site. My phone won't let me check it

Thanks, JMo. I didn't think to look at the all-time list.

He’s the link for the Ghost Ratings again if anyone needs it.

We're pretty close to being able to get something started. I'll give it a little longer because I know there are a few who haven't posted who are still interested. Here’s who we’ve heard back from so far:

Jmo1121109 (23 all time) Prof
2ndWhiteLine (99) Prof
TheHampster (14) Prof or TA
Triumvir (293 all time) Prof or TA
StacklbergFollower (112) TA
EmperorMaximus (145) TA
Dyager (253) TA
Abgemacht (53) TA
Achillies (231 all time) TA
Halt (221) TA
Murraysheroes (532) TA or Player
Scoggle (774) TA or Player
RAZ000 (781) Player
Duckofspades (893) Player
Battalion (2318) Player
SpeakertoAliens (8696) Player
John Viva (no GR – new to site) Player

If I missed you, post your GR ranking and what you're interested in doing (Player, TA, or Prof). Don't want anyone to miss out.

As much as I would hate to draw Italy, I cant think of a better chance to learn how to play them.

You missed me! Ranked 2173 in the September GR. Player.

I'm not in the all time list yet :)

Player, 2615 all time GR

Okay. So what I have so far is this:

Jmo1121109 (23 all time) Prof
2ndWhiteLine (99) Prof
Triumvir (293 all time) Prof or TA
TheHampster (14) Prof or TA
StacklbergFollower (112) TA
EmperorMaximus (145) TA
Dyager (253) TA
Abgemacht (53) TA
Achillies (231 all time) TA
Halt (221) TA
Murraysheroes (532) TA or Player
Scoggle (774) TA or Player
RAZ000 (781) Player
Duckofspades (893) Player
A_Tin_Can (2173) Player
Battalion (2318) Player
Enoch (2615 all time) Player
SpeakertoAliens (8696) Player
John Viva (no GR – new to site) Player

There may still be others (particularly other intermediate players) interested but I am going to suggest that we get at least one game started. Looking at GR and at player records it seems that the following seven players would be fairly evenly matched:

RAZ000
Duckofspades
A_Tin_Can
Battalion
Enoch
SpeakertoAliens
John Viva

The following people would be the TA’s:

Triumvir or TheHampster
StacklbergFollower
EmperorMaximus
Dyager
Abgemacht
Achillies
Halt

For Profs that leaves:

Jmo1121109 (23 all time) Prof
2ndWhiteLine (99) Prof
Triumvir or TheHampster (whoever is not a TA)

I know that this leaves a couple players out who fell right in the middle. Hopefully if more people express interest we can get another game (perhaps an intermediate game) started. In the meantime, what do people think about this setup?

This all looks good, nice work Tri.

If we can get confirmations from the seven players and TAs, we can get this first game started.

Along w/ confirmations, if the TA's could let me know what nations they are most comfortable working with.

If I am a TA, I am happy to work with France, Germany, Austria, and Russia (and England to a lesser extent).

I suggest just naming all 7 countries in the order you'd like to TA them. Otherwise that could become a bit of a hassle as well.

I'm happy to confirm as a TA. I think steephie's suggestion is good, so my country preferences for TAing are so ordered:
1. Germany
2. Russia
3. France
4. Italy
5. Austria
6. England
7. Turkey

Whilst I'm a little late on coming back to this, I'm still interested in taking part in almost any position. However, with a GR of 339 in September, i suspect I fall in the middle anyway.

Thanks an no problem, although I have no clue why I'm even checking this thread.

I confirm that I interested to start game as a player.

Good idea, Steephie.
1. Austria
2. France
3. Germany
4. Russia
5. England
6. Turkey
7. Italy
4.
5.
6.
7.

Thanks. And interesting way of numbering. I really should go offline now.

Yeah. Not sure where those other numbers came from...

I'll confirm that I am in.

I'm in.

I'm ready to go as well.

I'm in as a player

Most Comfortable :Turkey England Austria Russia
Can get by but no expert : France Germany
I am a disaster with Italy.

I'm afraid that although I am about to lose a game, I will still have a total of 100 in play and so will not have anything to play with. I'm not sure how long it will take me to get some more (either by winning or losing). I had hoped I would have done more by this point. If you want to sub someone else in, I will obviously understand!

I think Sunday evening might be a realistic prediction.

I meant Saturday, but it's only a rough guess.
