we'll go with 300 just to make us all sweat it a bit ;) I'll start up the game once djbent posts on here that she is back. we'll do 48hrs, (MM agreed I think) but we ask that you finalize you retreat/builds faster than that ok?

this should be a great game guys...

sounds good - when you start the game would you mind pming us the password?

I'm sorry guys, I'm going to have to pull out, because I've just got a massive dump of work from the leagues finishing, which really make starting a game impossible :(

So we still need one more then, with TGM out?

Evidently. Perhaps someone should petition some top players?

I've PMed Silverwolf and cgwhite32 to think about joining. I chose them because they are the only current members of the top 15 that are active and I have never played with.

anyone?

PMing is the best option... lets PM top 25 players not on this list and go from there... i'm confident we'll get someone by monday

Personal question(not about game but rather something I noticed) where can I find this list?

http://phpdiplomacy.tournaments.googlepages.com/theghost-ratingslist

click on Sept. 4th to get the current Ghost-Ratings

If you can't get anyone else to join, I'm still interested. :P

@Yuul - The Sept. 4th Ghost Rankings are the most recent ones. TheGhostmaker calculates and posts them usually about once a month. (an updated set of rankings is likely to come out within the next week or two)

No response from either of them. I wonder if the current message system has people not seeing these messages. That or they just don't want to reply which is annoying...

Babak, are you just going to do it? We dont want to bombarde peoples inboxs...

I am 39th. If you guys get desperate enough =)

got all in the top 25 except Braveheart and cgwhite.

I asked them to come and indicate their interest on here.

Spell, if we dont find a top-25 7th for this game by monday, I think we'll include Bugger since he's been on here from day one asking to join... but my guess is we'll get a 7th.

also - by now you guys can start a 2nd game... Friendly Sword, Buggar, you, you guys can get a top 60 game going in no time and I may well be willing to join that as well.

oooh... I should mention - this game WILL be anonymous... so that should add another layer of intrigue and fun to it.

That's cool. I was just trying to get back some of the Ghost points you took from me on that live game...that is still in perpetual hold, btw.

bent back?

It does not appear so.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

ok, who have we got now?

i'd like to play against marekp or polar bear if we are still looking for someone.

and, for the record, it's ok with me to go with spelly or bugger

I have not heard back from any of the 15+ ppl I PMd yet... but I'll go ahead and start the game and we'll see if we get a 7th... if not, then I guess Buggar can join in as he's next in line.

i'll set it for 429 pts... so a 3003 pt game. anonymous, WTA, 48hr deadlines.

Thanks for the offer, but I prefer PPSC.

sorry to disapoint DuneCat... but i think most of us are WTA proponents...

would love to play polar bear if he'd be up for it... try to get him into the game.

who is the lineup? who are we waiting on? only 5 people have joined.

i've joined

well, i cant tell who has or has not joined... but obviously i'm in ;P

since we are not getting any responses from others, should we invite buggar in?

yes i think we should invite bugger. and we may need another, as well. can the other two people who have joined say who they are?

I have also joined. Have you messaged bartdogg and madmarx?
