We filled DIE HARD 2, so it's time to start another signup. This is a game for serious players who don't quit. If you are not familiar with the format, here are the details:
DIE HARD GAME GOALS, RULES AND CONDITIONS
Goal:
I'm looking to recruit players for a "die hard" game. Players
that are willing to play a game out to the end no matter what. No
quitters, droppers, idlers, resigners, permanent holiday moders, etc. I
have been increasingly frustrated with players quitting when they still
have plenty of strength left, and so am looking to create a game that
will not have this issue.
Game Setup:
1. It will be
setup the same as a standard planets.nu officers game: 500 planets, the
usual 11 races, standard map size, Max Allies = 1 for victory
conditions. All other forms of diplomacy will be permitted as well.
2.
Schedule will be 2 turns per week, probably hosting Wednesdays and
Saturdays. Hopefully the early turns will run faster, but no guarantee.
3. This game will be created as a private game to allow the players signed up to join, but will then be run as a public game so you will earn achievement and campaign resources, and have it listed on your profile.
Rules:
You should agree to the following conditions before requesting a slot:
1.
YOU WILL NOT QUIT. The whole reason this game is being created is to
find a group of players that can take a hit (or a severe beating) and
keep on fighting. You should understand that you quitting takes away
from the enjoyment of others in the game, and should enjoy playing even
when you are unlikely to win. You agree to not resign, or stop playing
while remaining in the game (including holiday mode) in any fashion.
2.
NO PRE-FORMED ALLIANCES. I am OK with you having friends in the game, but you must agree
to join the game as independent players, open to alliance or combat with
everyone else in the game. If the situation in the game is a good one
for you and your friend to end up allying, more power to you, but
otherwise you should be willing to work with other players as allies and
fight your friends.
If you agree to the above and would like to
play in a game with others who feel the same, look below in this thread
to see what races are spoken for, then reply with your choice of the
remaining races, and I'll reserve that spot for you. You can give me
multiple races ranked first choice to last choice if you'd like, since
this is all first come first serve.
A couple other notes:
1.
OK, we may let you resign if your situation has become truly hopeless.
Something along the lines of "I have only 3 barren planets with 10 clans
each and my only ship is a fuelless probe I accidentally shot off the
side of the map." If you really want out, post in the game forum and the
other players can vote to approve your release or not.
2. I
realize that real life issues can cause people to have to quit. That's
understandable, but please give us notice so I can pause the game and
try to find a replacement.
3. If you do quit for any reason
except the above, you can expect to be taunted, mocked, insulted, and
discredited in the public forums, as well as any threads for any other
games you are in. You may also find players from this game joining other
games you are in with the sole purpose of hunting you down.
4.
While not a strict requirement, this game is meant to draw upper-level
players. You should be aware that the competition will (hopefully) be
tougher than what you'll typically find in the public games. If you
haven't managed to pull off a win in a public game, this may not be a
good one for you to join.
This game will begin once all of the races are taken. The first game filled in 2 days, while the second took about 3 weeks to fill. So I'm not really going to guess at how long it will take for this one.
