Default PBW Stats and other game numbers

Geo
I am curious what is the longest running game on PBW? what was the shortest? How many have contributed$ Who is in the most games? I am curious about any stats you know or can think of. I have been in a PBW game that seems to have been going on since before I started playing SEIV (I took over another players slot)
Thanks
Gozguy

can any other PBW gamer beat 958 planets under their control and the game is not over?

As for the Longest games - there are 2 contenders that I can think of :-

5 Seas of Stability - Started 21 Sept 2001 and finished on PBW on Dec 2003, when 5 people dropped out when 1 alliance was almost crushed. Their where still a dozen players left.

P&N on PBW, take 2 - is the second one. This game start well before Sept 2002 and the game is still going. I don't know when it started however.

Fyron has claimed to have been in the most games, and no-one has contradicted him.

The shortest games would have to be KOTH games.
My first Koth game (Non-Gold, pre Ratings thankfully) was 8 turns, and that was my complete annialation, including the destruction of my Home World.

I'm in a game, Big Fat Zero the Third, it dates back to Oct 2001 and is on turn 178. I'm also in the P&N take 2 game, that's Nov 2001 and on turn 133.

Both games I came in as a replacement, and have been full of delays. But still - they're almost 3 years old!

If you discount tournament games and KOTH games, I am probably one of the people that has hosted the largest number of games as well. Tesco and Geoschmo are up there too.

What do you mean by "hosted"? Since it's a PBW question...I assume it means setting up the game...am I correct (and not PBEM)?

Yes, PBW only. Taking over as host and actually doing things other than, well, letting turns process, counts as well.

PvK's Proportions Game #1 started March 29, 2002. The action is just heating up! Space Viking mining bases are burning...

P&N on PBW is a bit older, and is not quite warm yet...
