Countdown

[Grounds]

I'm sorry, but I only seem to be able to get 350 points to spend on my god when I go to test. How do I give myself more points to work with.

[chrispedersen]

Oh. Grounds, you will definitely want to look under the strategy index for hints on how to play ermor.

That being said, you get additional points by under awakening choosing to make your pretender either asleep or imprisoned.

I've changed the bidding somewhat, however right now your bid is 0 and ermor - meaning that you do not have to leave any points left over.

However, if someone out bids you, you will = )

[Squirrelloid]

lol@Agartha not starting at 0.

Hell, Agartha should be given a handicap. Not that I know how you'd actually implement such a thing, but starting at -50 seems fair.

[Verjigorm]

I'll bid 395 for Arcoscephale.

To level the playing field players will have reduced points to build their pretenders, depending on their hall of fame strength with certain exceptions.

Signups will not be first come first serve, they will be lowest bidder wins.

Points bid are the points that must remain unspent on your pretender design screen and will be verified by the game administrator (at this point, grudge).

CBM: 1.6.

Liberal delays, no rollbacks. Map will be as desired by participants. This will be a Baalz good player pledge game: you will be asked and expected to play till the end, to the best of your ability. If you drop out, you will be shamed in thread !

In an effort to keep the game interesting for those on the losing end, I propose that there will be approximately 4 victory points. Victory will be earned by he that accumulates 150 victory points.

Special Game Rule: No fortifying these 4 victory points.

Current bids:

TC: 12 (Wilbur)
Pangea: 8 (Legolas)
TNN: 0 (Pablomatic)
Ermor: 0 (Grounds)
Marverni: 10 (Two Bits)
Yomi: 3 ChrisPedersen Previous Yomi: 0 (Baalz)
Hinnom: 45 (pyg)

Arco: 5 Verjigorm

If you outbid someone, please let them know in the interests of fairplay and keeping the bidding moving quickly!

[Cammorak]

Sounds like a great premise. I'm in the same boat as Pablomatic as far as experience goes. Regardless, let's see how the big blue morons fare with a bit of the wind out of their sails.

Niefelheim at 25

[chrispedersen]

Bump..

To get a good competitive game we need bids, players.. pass the news to your friends, neighbors... If we don't get any bids for 36 more hours we'll go as is.. but I really would like to get a few bids and players in!

[Peacekeeper]

[Alpine Joe]

I will buy Lanka for 25

[Hoplosternum]

I can take another game. And this one looks interesting. Having blown my earlier attempt at playing helheim I would like another try So I'll bid 15 for them.
