Blitz games this weekend

It looks like we will have quite a few players for blitz games starting around 18:00 GMT saturday and sunday on the gamesurge #dominions IRC channel. Just to let anyone know who may be interested.

How long do these blitzes last; are there turn time limits?

No turn time limits, the games usually last between 2 and 5 hours.

I'm not sure if it will work with mac, but there is an outline of what to do in this thread .

oh, and if anyone gets messages like 'connection timed out', keep trying. The gamesurge server has been acting funny recently, but it usually connects if you let it try long enough.

According to their website, they're (gamesurge's irc network) is under a DDoS attack, first mentioned on the 25th. I've been trying to get in for 15 minutes now using different servers, but no joy.
