tones (8/28/2007) To get this (fairly large and heavy) ball rolling I suggest we come up with a couple of team names. A few team name suggestions: Alpha/Omega; Red/Blue; Eagle/Bear; Knights/Bowmen; Ying /Yang; Strangeness/Charm; Democrats/Despots; Fire/Ice; Vanilla/Chocolate; Friends of Fluffy/The World Let's hear some more..... The ball's rolling alright.....wondering about it's direction though and how long it's going to take to get wherever it's supposed to be heading

HA! You are absolutely right. I agree. I was kinda waiting for someone "important" to take charge. If we get into too many polls it'll take for ever.

Well Zigeuner, it seems that when two people who stated that they would never run for public office are both elected ... the only "official" things they preside over is a death knell. I would like to be involved, but I would not want to be the one to be absent when the team needed me ... and that is more likely to happen than not. Will there be a place for observers? It appears that what is about to be set up will be a game where all the decisions are made behind closed doors by one side or the other ... hardly conducive to attracting new players ... or members???

Tosk, it seems to me that people are not trying to set up a new D-game for 1bc, but rather a more complex PBEM game for a large crowd to get involved with.... that's just how I see it.

Right, I agree. So lets not call it a D-game, or starting over, t's really just a glorified PBEM.

An interesting exchange of one-liners about how it's not gonna work or be any good. Now let's hear some in-depth analysis containing some constructive ideas... For me, I do not hold much interest at the moment in the D-game side of things, but surely a way can be found to have it be a D-game that plays a turn a day, or 5 turns a week? The division into teams makes sense, because both teams can create their own system of government. Well Zigeuner, it seems that when two people who stated that they would never run for public office are both elected ... the only "official" things they preside over is a death knell. Maybe that's why I'm loathe to go D-game again... it will just wither at my touch.

Sorry if there was a misconception that I was advocating that a PBEM won't work ... I know it will work ... but it really has nothing to do with restarting a DGame ... or just letting the DGame die a honorable death ... or continuing the version we have going.
