Sounds like evenings EST/ early evening MST seems to be our best time all around.
Irregardless, I think we can safely say the game is going to go quickly!

Lets hope Zak is confused by our quick speed!

I have to agree. This ain't a RTS game. . Besides, Flubber will want to get home to Mrs. Flubber on a 40 minute bus.

Tired of ads?

Well, I'm cheating, and I expect we all are.
I have open:
Outlook express, waiting
a notepad document with game notes and the next players email for copy/pasting
SMACX already open, MP selected, the folder i put weird science games in selected

Move sent!
3 minutes.

Now, as I was saying
also open is the folder that the computer saves games into, and IE.
Get move, open, unzip, pick folder, unzip. 10 seconds.
Switch to other window with ACX, click on folder, select file i just unzipped, open play, save
switch to notepad, copy email address, swtich to folder with save, zip and email move, paste address, switch to IE, post.
This way I don't hold you guys up opening ACX every time.

Hope this helped.
Indra

Hi all:

I guess I'd better hurry and get this note in before another 5 or 6 notes get posted! Too late!!!

Well, I have no place to go to night so when Flubber and Black Sunrise need to sign-off, no problem! I'm exhausted, not by work by the frequency of the move and trying to stay up!

My cheat is to have my email provider open in multiple windows with an already addressed outgoing message ready and the attchment pop-up activated. I check incoming in one yahoo window and send out through another. I don't usually do this but when trying to play in 1 minute :

Hi again:

I guess my message about being tired was alittle crytic and hurried as my note should have been better written and was meant to read "I'm exhausted, not by work BUT by the frequency of moves and trying to stay up with you all!"

I'll be ready when play resume

Just kidding.

hexk of an impressive start - that must be the fastest a 'Poly page has filled apart from the off-topic forum and the "I've got CivIII" thread.

Congrats on an almost IP game start

Hmm... about 6 hours. Well, some people DO sleep. Not to mention, I do have other duties (taking care of an invalid wife), and I do need sleep. *yawn*. 4 hours sleep... I think I'm gonna hit the hay for a few more if I'm to be of any coherent words today. *yawn*.
