	Active Player Profiles Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

I thought that I could maintain a list here of player profiles if people want to PM me their information. It would give newbies a sense of the community and let people like me who have only been around a short time be able to stop sending e-mails to my Pactmates asking "What's this guy like?"

It might also encourage newbies to sign up with the basic info and start the game seeking process.

If you have interest, and want to be listed, PM me with:

I'm open to suggestions of additional information to include, or anything at all.

* (I need some feedback here. Newbie, experienced, veteran? Someone who can cream the AI at Transcend might get whipped by a not-very-skilled PBEMer. Ideas from long time PBEMers for a way to rank people would be appreciated)

PBEMing since: 1999
PBEM skill level: veteran, experienced, but really just average (see CMN comment below)
Average Turn Rate: multiple daily
Interested in TCP/IP?: yes
Hours available: mainly afternoons, Pacific Standard Time (GMT - 8)
Favorite Faction: None, really - will play them all
Notes:

• CMN experience, which sometimes colours my playstyle (wanting everyone to enjoy the game)
  
• Builder first, then Hybrid - reluctant Momentum player - even with classic momentum factions, still prefer trying to turn them into researchers/builders
  
• Unless coerced, prefer playing at Transcend level
  
• Don't mind playing in games with odd factions or alpha(x).txt tweaks

PBEMing since: May 2005
PBEM skill level: newbie
Average Turn Rate: once a day, a little more on weekends
Interested in TCP/IP? Need the small daily routine as opposed to a long online one. Maybe at X-mas. That's when I'm allowed to be locked away for 3 or so days straight.
Hours available: Would love 6-8 p.m. EST. Hours are wild right now. Still.. one-a-day.
Favorite Faction: Gaian (SMAC)
Notes: Play CPU quite handily. In 'transcend' no one is interested in exchanging tech. Er..oh.. thats because I choose 'aggressive' mode. Love the tech. Gotta have the tech. Looking for new pbem as of this post.

Average Turn Rate: one turn per day, more on weekends
Interested in TCP/IP: no time
Hours available: GMT+1 mornings and evenings are generally good, lots of exceptions to this rule though in both ways

E-mail: bblyyyaha at umr dot eyyydu (remove y's)
IRC/AIM: Check profile

PBEMing since: 22 March 2003
PBEM skill level: Apparently good, and if one game is any evidence, about as good as Flubber. I crush Transcend AIs, FWIW.
Average Turn Rate: Less than 1 day typical turnaround, but with interruptions such as holidays or moving
Interested in TCP/IP? Sometimes; these take all day though
Hours available: For TCP/IP, weekends only, ~1300-0200. For PBEM responses, about 1100 and 2200-0200 during the week.
Favorite Faction: Most of them. I can't stand fungboy though, and the aliens bore me.
Notes: I like banter and aggressive play, and expect to get the same back. I also tend to do random, arbitrary, or otherwise confusing things in and out of game.

PBEMing since: November 2001~ish
PBEM skill level: Experienced (Builders); Pathetic (Momentum)
Average Turn Rate: 1-2 turns per game per day when healthy
Interested in TCP/IP: With advance warning of at least a week
Hours available: Friday Nights through to Sunday Afternoons for TCP/IP. Hours vary on weekdays.
Favorite Faction: University. PK's, Angels and Morgan get also-rans.

Notes:

• Can sub-MY2200 Transcend on Huge in SP with my beloved Uni, for what little it's worth in MP
  
• Like Googlie, primarily a Builder, though I'm often forced into Hybrid by the simple fact of playing more aggressive humans in MP - pathetic as a Momentum player, can't help but use my same old and tired builder strategies with those factions
  
• Prefer playing at Transcend level, and with experienced opponents
  
• Getting bored with standard games, and am all up for weird modifications to alpha(x).txt and house rules
