Coods Posted April 23, 2013 I'm in this super stressful arms race with the orange player who i made an early alliance with. With me as his buffer faction, he's been rapidly expanding without checks, so my control of the best technology on the map is the only thing keeping me from destruction. I'm pretty much scared shitless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patrick R Posted April 24, 2013 Joined another game purely to figure out the basic mechanics. My approach is not exactly, how do you say, even-handed. This is 45 minutes into the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henroid Posted April 24, 2013 All names have been shuffled and handed out! Please create / change your name for the game and you all have a blast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toblix Posted April 24, 2013 God damn it, I was sure I had added my name to this thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henroid Posted April 24, 2013 I'd be more than happy to random-name moderate for anymore groups of people that want to do so. Just organize your cast and give me a ding on here. Edit - Let me add by the way that I haven't really gotten to know anyone here yet so name assignments were totally random, it was impossible for me to apply any sort of bias one way or the other. Some of the names were, uh, interesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Argobot Posted April 24, 2013 Um, how exactly do we join the game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigJKO Posted April 24, 2013 Murdoc will post a link to it when he's created a game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Murdoc Posted April 24, 2013 Alright, just sent out the links, password is wizard (I realize I did this all backwards, where as the password should have been sent out and the link posted, lol) I also just realized Neptunes Prides 2 model is totally different than 1, so it's not like someone who bought in can host a game for all. Anyway, we'll wait a max of 2 days before we call in the back ups if someone hasn't joined. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coods Posted April 24, 2013 Scratch that, I found the name changer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henroid Posted April 24, 2013 I'm not using actual forumer names here, but we had a bit of a hiccup in name uses and I had to assign a new name out. Hopefully the instructions get to where they need to go before the game starts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gregbrown Posted April 24, 2013 If there's a second game planned, I'd love to join. Have been swamped with work lately, and didn't realize y'all were starting one. :[ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Laxan Posted April 24, 2013 Count me in if there's a second game set up. My life's just begging to be ruined. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pabosher Posted April 25, 2013 Oh hey the game has started! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigJKO Posted April 25, 2013 The names in this game.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cleinhun Posted April 25, 2013 I didn't see this thread until now, but if another game starts I'd be down to make and break alliances with internet strangers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Niyeaux Posted April 25, 2013 I am also down for this if we wanna get a second game going. It looks like we probably have enough people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pabosher Posted April 25, 2013 The names in this game.. 7/8 of these are really good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chajusong Posted April 25, 2013 I didn't see this thread until now, but if another game starts I'd be down to make and break alliances with internet strangers. Same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Argobot Posted April 25, 2013 I'll offer to organize a second round of Neptune's Pride for interested parties. Based on earlier posts in the thread, the next group would be: 1. Gormongous 2. Irish John 3. Wubbles 4. Wikipedia Brown 5. brkl 6. roswell47 7. toblix 8. gregbrown Possible third group (three spots still open!) 1. laxan 2. illeria 3. cleinhun 4. niyeaux 5. chajusong If you're in the first group and want to play a game, message me your fake name and I'll redistribute them. I won't be satisfied until everyone is ruined by this game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Salacious Snake Posted April 25, 2013 I'm definitely still interested. I don't really see the point of the random names; I like the idea for something like the Telltale employee game, where people know each other and are in close proximity and would have preconceived notions about each other, but we're all basically internet strangers, right? That said, I would never want to be a wet blanket, so I'll send you a name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gregbrown Posted April 25, 2013 Name sent! Excited to get this thing rolling, and thanks for organizing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Murdoc Posted April 25, 2013 If you guys want to do the telltale name thing, I don't mind being the one that rolls those out since Henroid was nice enough to volunteer last time. It's a lot of fun to have those names. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
