Galaxy Games Starting at Galactic Traveller From: jacko@jacobean.demon.co.uk (Jacko) Date: Sun, 19 Oct 1997 00:00:00 +0000 Hi All, I'm about to start hosting some more Galaxy Games and I am looking for players. I will be using Frans Slothouber's excellent Galaxy Variation - Galaxy Next Generation or GalaxyNG. For those of you who don't know it, this is based on standard Galaxy V3.52, but with a few differences. You can check out this variant for yourself in the section dedicated to GalaxyNG on the Galaxy page in my website: Galactic Traveller http://www.jacobean.demon.co.uk/gtrav.html This also has a link to the authors website. The games will run twice a week, on Wednesday and Saturday nights. If there is enough interest I will start up to three games as follows: Neptune - 10 players Saturn - 20 players Mars - 30 players There will be order checking. However, the game will run on my Linux Box over a dial-up internet account and so order processing will take place a set times 4 times a day rather than continuously (for those lucky people who have permanent connections). Further, the server will be unattended during the weekdays because I work away from home. I will be able to login to it remotely to fix problems, but major problems will be dealt with at the weekends. There have been no major problems so far. My first two games have been running for about 50 & 25 turns now without serious problems. Although the server will be unattented during the week, you will still be able to contact me daily by email. You will each have one homeworld of size 1000 and two of size 400. Interested? If you are interested in playing please email me with 'Join Galaxy' in the subject line. Please let me know your galaxy experience. -- So long and thanks for all the fish ... -= Jacko =- Galactic Traveller The UK Resource for Interstellar PBEM Games http://www.jacobean.demon.co.uk/gtrav.html Referenced By Up
