I think that means we're up to three who are ready to go. Maybe four, counting Whiplash. Anyone else? Or anyone wanting us to wait a day or two?

I am going to the store to pick up a copy today ( I was able to cancel my on-line order). I have never played a pitboss game, but I would like to try. When was this one going to start??

I installed and patched BTS yesterday and so am ready. I like the default preferences. Tech trading on is a must for me; it really makes MP games come alive. I have no map preferences and would be happy with whatever you decide on. As for Civs I would like to try one of the new ones, say Joao II of Portugal but if that is unacceptable I would be happy to be random. B.

I'm interested to take part. I prefer no tech treading, but anything goes.

What we will do on the TT issue is there will be no Tech Trading but there will be Permenant Alliances in the late game. So decide now if you are ok with that or want out.
The game will start at about 8pm est/1am GMT tonight, unless I run into some technical problems. the turn timer will be set to 20 hrs due to the fact that the pitboss timer doesn't count when players are in the game, so in the long run 20hrs will actually work out close to 24hrs on average.

Right now I count 16 players, we will use the Big and Small map of the approproriate size, remember this is a ladder game, so if your not a current ladder member please create an account soon.
I will create civs according to players stated prefs, so please don't join as any civ that is specifically reserved, the rest of the slots will be random and feel free to pick a civ, first come first serve for the random civs.
Any other questions, you have approx 8 hours to ask.

As I just got the game 5 mins ago and won't be home until right about when this game is scheduled to start, have no clue how to play a pitboss game, have no clue how BTS is, will run into all kinds of issues installing and patching (VISTA and me don't work well together) AND have to be away this weekend-- I better sit this one out!
Please keep me posted for the next one!

I'm in, Quin is my leader choice.
Consider the Snakey Continents option for Big/Small.
I have an SP with a huge map that is now revealed and it looks to me that it would be good for an epic pitboss.

I'll give up my space since I really like the diplomatic aspects and especially tech trading. No doubt there will be games that come along that have TT enabled. Thanks for considering me. Regards, Bolkonsky.

ok my IP is 205.206.26.64 it's static. The game is a DirectIP game, pw is testoftime.
There are 15 civs, and the people that wanted a specific civ have them, all others are random.
Settings:
Big and Small Huge Temperate low sea level Ancient Quick Snaky Continents Islands Islands mixed in
Chose Religions No tech trading Permanent Alliances on Turn timer is 20hrs Take over AI is on Simultaneous turns on
Make sure you hit Alt D after you enter and set your email and pop settings and pw, the game will send out reminders.
Good luck and have fun
