Another Grand Campaign Hotseat

That's it, away they go.

Ok, if we actually are going to change the name, we need something that will not scare away people unused to how wierd we are.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

I don't really care, either, but gibsonsg91921 suggested that we come up with a better name.

The Night of the Broken Glasses.

Perhaps a bit untasteful, as it parodies a seriously tragic event.

"Please do not let our weirdness frighten you."

The only reason I suggested another name was so it would be more recognizable to posterity, like Will of the Senate, King of the Romans, The Frozen Crusade, (almost) Magna Carta.

Also, I would argue that it would be more recognizable to posterity if a hotseat game was actually finished, than any snappy title we could come up with.

Ok guys, how's this for a new title and intro. Too cheesy?

Grand Campaign Hotseat 2 would be the name used for saves (something like GCH, with a numbering system like for the hotseat games).

Grand Campaign Hotseat 2: The Rising Storm

The year is 1080 A.D. After centuries of fighting to expand, strong powers are coaslescing in Europe, North Africa, and Asia. For any one of these power to become dominant, others must be destroyed. Religious and secular conflicts are driving some together and far more apart. Rumors of war are arising all over the region, and it is only a matter before it is caught up in a tide of Total War.

Neutral, yet descriptive. Works for me.

May I suggest that there should be a rule to play your turn within 24 hours (max 36) before your turn is skipped? We should keep a list of all player passwords in the first post so that can be done easily.
Skipping means you don't do anything for the faction and don't accept diplomacy unless it has been agreed on in a diplomacy thread beforehand.

What the MPC is suffering from the most is people taking more than a week to play their turn at times even if they are online constantly. I got the habit of making sure everyone gets a PM now if its their turn, but some still don't play in a reasonable amount of time. I won't call anyone's name though, but you know who you are!!!

As for faction...I assume we will be autoresolving all battles right? I'll take Poland in that case.

C'mon guys, at least wait until we fill another couple of slots before spamming up the thread.

If you or anyone else can think of something, gibsonsg91921, I'll be glad to change it.
