I'm available most any afternoon (USA timezones), let me know when you want to play.

Hey, I've been lurking these forums and following the game for a couple months, finally got around to buying it last weekend, and have almost finished my first single-player campaign.  I'd be up for playing in the US afternoon/evenings, seeing that school is finally getting around to ending.

I'm in the Central US, for the record.  What times have you guys got open?

Wow, I've gone a long time without replying; I'll watch more carefully.

I'm available most any night.  I tend not to like marathon sessions, but 1 hour consistently per night would be good.

Amen to that.  Those few and proud of us somewhat athletically-inclined gamers don't do too well with the whole sleep deprivation thing :D

... Despite this, long summer nights are ahead for this almost-out-of-high schooler.  I'd be up for a game, if you want.  Do you happen to have a steam account?  That seems like a decent program by which to facillitate starting a game.

I'd be interested in playing with you guys if you're looking for more. I'm from the UK, but I'm pretty flexible with respect to timezones :)

I'd be up for a massive game.

"massive" equating to 3 or more.  Affine, what's your steam account?  If you don't have one...get it :p

I'm Koffee510.  Anyone else who wants in on this, post up your steam account.  Or PM it, if you're the suspicious type.  So far as a time goes...umm, 9:00 at -6 GMT?

Wait, that's downright abusive to Affine.  Unless he enjoys starting a game at 3 in the morning.  In either case, if you (Affine) want a time that could kind of coincide with the USA's evening, that'd be sweet.  Just pick anything.  Indecision typically seems to be more of a problem than availability in organizing these things.

At least for the near future, 3 in the morning for me is fine. Even 6 in the morning would be doable :)

Alright!  That's more like it!

Umm...for no particular reason, if Affine the Insomniac is up for it, how about we rendezvous on Steam at...sometime Sunday late afternoon/evening?  I think that works for me.  Maybe.  we could start on the earlier end of things.

For the sake of being decisive, how about 8:00 PM for -6 GMT (2:00 AM GMT for you math geniuses out there), on Sunday (or early Monday for the Brits)?  Rendezvous on Steam, and figure it out from there?

Oh, and someone wanna host?  I'm generally awful at it.

Anyone else who's lurking this thread, speak now, or forever hold your peace.

This sounds good to me. We might want to have a think about what settings to use beforehand.. I'm up for most things but maybe you guys have some preferences :)

Hey, I suck and got home late from where I was.  Also, the computer with AI War is occupied.  Don't know when I can get it back.  Hopefully soon.
