Directions for Interested Players:
Send me your name, Email address, country name, maybe some biographical
information, what kind of Mac you'll be using (just because I'm
interested), what kind of player you consider yourself (i.e. ruthless,
cunning, straight forward, defensive, etc.) and any comments or
suggestions.
Additional Comments, Thoughts, Suggestions:
I am hoping to set up a game that will move along fairly quickly and that
won't take too long to finish. If you have access to a computer over the
weekends and want to play quickly, then this is the game for you.
The game will be tracked by having each person send out a group E-mail as
they send their turn to the next person so that everyone involved will
know where the most recent version of the game is and can anticipate how
soon they will be able to take their next turn. (Please include the name
"Friends" in the subject heading of all Email messages). Sending the game
on to the next player on the same day you received it (when possible)
will be smiled upon by all involved.
Please be familiar with the "Play-by-Email Etiquette" that Bob Heeter has
developed at this site. All players should agree to follow these
standards in their initial communication to me so that we will have a
fair and fun game for all. Thanks in advance for your interest.
