How would the teams be set up for 12? It's fairly flexible (6x2, 2x6, 3x4, 4x3).

I like the idea of 4 teams of 3, but it's no strong preference.

Yeah the idea was 3x4

Bumpity...anyone who wants to join just enter...those who haven't joined yet better be quick

This is SO ANNOYING. If people say they will join, then PLEASE JOIN.

Yes.

I joined to help out, although my teammates might think I'm more of a hindrance than a help. I suck at gunboat.

Are you going to announce what the teams are by grouped nations before we get started? Also, I will commonly be taking the full two days as I don't live on the site like I once did.

Thanks man! That's a good question, I would like to not make the teamings public.

One more, come on guys!

Just list them pregame in the public tab in game.

Is there really not a single player on this site that will join this game and finally get it going? C'mon you yellow-bellied sapsuckers, somebody click the fackin join button.

I could multi hahaha

Well, game appears to be up. What are the teams?

Yes teams please. I don't want to attack an ally.

Also, how often will we rotate nations?

tobi should have organised it by now...good luck all!

I'm interested in following this comedic debacle and noticed that the mini map listing just the nation's lists one nation twice. Someone should fix that.

Can we find out what all the teams are, rather than just the one we're on? Rather necessary to know who might attempt to work together if we're to plan properly.

Mouse is correct. Also, knowing how often the switch is going to occur would help.

Yes, of course I can name the teams in public. However, isn't it more interesting, if you do not know about the other teams and have to take a deeper look at the moves to get more information? In addition, since the teams were randomly assigned, the constellation might not be 100 % balanced. Not knowing about the other teams at the beginning might improve the chances of the teams with weaker starting positions.
Anyway, since I am not really involved, I will just do, what the majority of the members want concerning this game.
So if the majority will state in this thread, that making teams public or giving an exact information about the team switching (rather than roughly every 1st, 2nd or 3rd round), we can change it that way.

Well the idea was that the players have to adapt to spontaneous changes flawlessly without prior notice, so that you can't prepare the takeover in any way and have to continue the game of his teammates in the midst of action, so to say.

A known switch time was suggested by the creator at the start. I suggest we at least should know that. I'd prefer knowing my oppose nets team makeup as well. Do you really think the enemy doesn't know who is allied with whom in real war going all the way back?

Well, no. Then again they don't swap the commanders of their armies every few months either :D

What will be interesting is how things will be handled when a nation is eliminated. Will the unlucky player who entered the last orders be the one removed from the game?

Oh, and I am the one who picked up the second to last position to be nice. Most of the other players are known, but positions are not, so it felt fair to admit to participation, but not team.

Are you done with your Hiatus, YCHTT? You said you were going to take one, but didn't know if you ever actually did.

I took several months away from gaming and only posted here in the winning thread. But yeah, I'm back for games, but only long turns. I can't be on all the time like I was before.

Nope, players will still be rotated after one or two nations of the team have been eliminated.

So someone just sits out until it is there turn in the rotation?
