Count MP 1066 - 1419 / 1453

[unmerged(21937)]

Are u guys playing counts that must be close together? Wouldnt it be more fun within the same 2-3 adjacant kingdoms.

There is no limit on what count you may choose. One could be in Ireland and one in Greece. As said in first post, it might feel like many player SP at first.

 

[Solmyr]

Should we start creating stats for our characters and their wives?

 

[unmerged(27106)]

We probably should wait until Jarkko is back from reservist training so we have as full a roster as possible. Might want to ask Pat and Hyz is they are interested (Pat at least mentioned being able to play from work - the times of this game are something like noon EST).

My free time during the week is mostly geared towards working on getting into grad school and volunteering for the Kerry/Edwards campaign, so I'm probably going to have to pass for now.

@Patrucio: Too bad. Maybe if your schedule frees up later?

@Solmyr: Well, I firstly were thinking that if there already is a count in place in the desired county, then one would use that and only mod new char if wanting to go into some county that is part of a bigger duchy. Also meaning that if one wants to have modded char, one would pick appropriately. But of course we could mod all starting chars for players, if such is desired. Then just some characters need to be displaced appropriately.

and volunteering for the Kerry/Edwards campaign

That shouldn't take much time anymore.

 

[Swuul]

If counties are already claimed, then I claim Padua

 

[unmerged(27106)]

That shouldn't take much time anymore.

Just a few more weeks. Then, perhaps I'll take a trip to DC to see Kerry sworn in as President in January.

@Byak: I'll probably be freer to play in a month or two during the week. I am getting a new PC game that I've been waiting on for several months in a few weeks, though, (Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines) so I might be otherwise engaged during the week. I'll pipe up if I can, however.

 

[unmerged(21937)]

So counties taken:

- Gent (Solmyr)
- Padua (Jarkko)

And we thought with Solmyr that people could mod their counts, while keeping same parents. Kids could be removed.

 

[RedPhoenix]

I'd prefer we go with standard counts. No modifications or self made.

Count of Savoie might be my choise, if we redisign the counts maybe I'll think of something else. I really hope we go with standard :I More fun

 

[Ilkhold]

I'd like to play the Count of Somerset and agree with RedPhoenix on prefering the standard characters without modification.

 

[Swuul]

I really hope we go with standard :I More fun

I agree.

 

[unmerged(21937)]

Well, let's have standard counts then.

EDIT: So current roster:
- Somerset (Ilkhold)
- Padua (Jarkko)
- Gent or Carcassone (Solmyr)
- Savoie (RedPhoenix)
- Steiermark (Byakhiam)

 

[Solmyr]

Well, standard counts is fine with me. Neither Gent nor Carcassonne start with any prestige/piety/gold though, so I'm switching to the count of Chernigov.

 

[devil]

I would like to join this game, since Gent or Carcassone is free, I would like to pick one of them.

 

[unmerged(21937)]

@Devil: Does the proposed time suit you? (tuesday 18 - 22 CET)

So, current player / country roster:
- Byakhiam / Steiermark
- Jarkko / Padua
- Solmyr / Chernigov
- Ilkhold / Somerset
- RedPhoenix / Savoie
- Devil / Gent or Carcassone
- Gathenhielm / Not chosen

Seven players, it seems we'll have a nice biggish crew in this game.

 

[unmerged(21937)]

Oh yeah, we will run the game with latest beta patch always.

 

[Ilkhold]

But, I want to play a game and not work as a tester.

 

[unmerged(21937)]

We won't be working as a testers, but I just don't want to force people have two installations of CK for those who do use beta patches. And as I believe most players will be using beta patches anyway, it's easier to use them in the game as well.

 

[Ilkhold]

After seing the quality of todays beta patch I cannot accept this. So I will resign from this game.

 

[Solmyr]

IMO we shouldn't be using beta patches for this, only official ones.

EDIT: People who use beta patches will most likely have two installations anyway (I know I do), but people who don't, won't be able to play in this game. Plus, there are various problems in the beta patch still.
