Getting the show on the Road

[miketr]

In theory we have a rules set and spending spree.  A key issue of Capital Ship architecture is being worked out.  Maps are are set and have been for a long time.

Do the player see ANYTHING missing as critical before the start of the game?

I feel that at this juncture, we are going to need playtesting to see if anything else is missing. so the only thing I would see as missing would be a date to get the show on the road and the final details as to how we want to handle the spending of start-up money as I know there had been some descution as to breaking up what was posted when.

Also, I have a mostly finished spreadsheet for the economics that baring any huge changes from the previously posted rules with regards to cost should be ok, but I have yet to compare its costs to the ones in the latest posted rules.

N3 rules set was in flux a great deal I expect the same here.

OK lets move this forward.

Could players have their first round of spending spree finished by next Wednesday?  September 28th?  Second round to be ready by 3 days later October 1st, Saturday? 

With official Start date and first turn economics in on Saturday October 8th?  How does this sound for people?

I say thets let her rip. The 8th seems like a good goal. How much of the spending spree will be due at a time?

All, if you need a spreadsheet for computing spending spree costs or a beta econ spreadsheet for the reports, I would be more then happy to provide what I am using.

Almost by definition the first round is going to be a trial round and will most likely be re-done.
So I say ASAP so that one can do some feedback and corrections before going live.
So I think we should start as soon as a reasonable number have posted starts, the sooner the better.

Wednesday 23 Sept sounds like a winner to me.
I might be a day or so behind on the 03 Oct second round, but maybe not- depends on how my day off goes.

I'll be ready for the official start on 08 Oct either way.

[TexanCowboy]

As mentioned before, nothing until November. I'll catch up then.

Sorry.

Don't wait for me, I'll drop out if it allows ya'll to go ahead.

[Tanthalas]

COUGH COUGH

Good by me, the quicker we get things going, the better for me as competition season is fast approaching for swimming.

Unfortunately I might be a bit late with my reports.  I've got a file saved away but my laptop and suddenly decided it no longer desires to live and I am going to attempt to fix it but will probably end up getting a new one.  Its only 5 years old dangit!  Well, 4 1/2.  But I've been doing some things out by hand and I'm going to make an effort to print out the rules now while I'm on my brother's computer so I can do my whole first draft by hand.

I might be a little late-  but I have it up within a week of the 23.
