All - a few updates:
(1) first, I've received several emails from interested participants, and we are officially up to TEN players already -- good progress !!
(2) Some of you have asked about the anticipated start date. I'm generally flexible on this, and will target [ 20 September ] or thereabouts, assuming we reach 16 players.
(3) Some people have also asked for a bit of information about PBEM and the mechanics. There is a good section here on the website for doing so:

The basic item is to get registered on the Marti dice server, so that both you and your opponent can see the respective dice rolls. To simplify the process for you, it's usually easier to just make your moves, save the game file, and then send the game file to your opponent. There is an automatic way to do this in the software, but there are a few glitches, which hopefully will get sorted out in the next version, so this shortcut is usually best. I'm happy to play a test game with you for a few moves if you need help in the interim.
(4) Lastly, with respect to speed of play, it is expected that you try your best to play at least one turn per day, but if you have other commitments (e.g. work, family) or if you are on vacation, etc., it is OK to make a move as soon as reasonably possible, but not later than a move every third day.

@deltium I'm not aware of any PBEM glitches. Can you point to where those are reported so we can make sure to get them resolved.

Just for clarification, either PBF (Play by Forum) or PBEM (Play by Email) can be used. PBF may be a bit easier for some of you that are new to non-live games, and here is a good link to examine:
https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/40/how-to-play-by-forum-a-visual-guide
Also, playing live is allowed, but in the event that either player does not want to play live, then PBF or PBEM is required.

I'd like to be considered. I played in TOC at previous clubs and even ran some tourneys. I would consider myself slightly above average- if not that's cool and best of luck to those that do play!
-
Welcome aagamer - sure, we can certainly add you to the list. The sum of participants is now 12 people, and I expect a few of the "vets" to respond shortly, indicating a high likelihood that we'll kick this baby off mid-to-late September.
Separately, I've had a few questions from people about speed of play. While I would prefer that everyone try to make a turn a day, I understand that some people have very demanding jobs and personal lives, so a move every other day is acceptable, but please try your best to move no later than once every other day.
Cheers, Deltium
