Ok basically the idea here is to more or less stresstest evo. Get some decent size games going as well as some smaller 1v1's etc.

A LOT of work has been done recently and the game needs some more playtesting as a whole after all these additions.

Game goes up in the lobby at 5pm central US time, hosted by yours truly. Hope to see you there :-)

Maps you should download ahead of time are:

I should be online around that time, if I am could you remind me in PM just in case I forget? I wouldn't mind getting some nice replays for some decent screenies.

Admittedly, the time may be kinda crappy for Europeans but unfortunately simply due to my schedule this is what I could work out. In my experience when we get enough players, most of the time these game sessions last 5 hours or more (had one that lasted till 8 am my time and started at 9pm the night before). As I'm more or less obligated to stick around, I need it to be in a block of time where I can be free and not having to do other stuff in-between.

Next time (assuming this time goes well enough to warrant another), I'll try to set it up for around 11am my time which should be a pretty decent time for europeans and prolly even aussies I would imagine.

One thing I should have mentioned is that spectators are welcome. You don't HAVE to play (of course it would be nice if you did ;-)), but just speccing stuff is fine. No worries :-)

Posted maplist (It's not exclusive of those maps, but as they are considered "Official" Evo maps you can expect to see at least some of these games hosted on them).

And it's done, thanks to all who participated :-) Next time I do this (Maybe in a week or so?), I'll set it at a time that is convenient for europeans. :-)

When are you regularly online to play? Most of the time I'm online there is nobody to play in any of the games I want to (KP, Evo, GRTS, 1944) and none of the players I would play with in other games. I'm not consistently able to play, but I probably could every other day if people were around.

Tbh, best times for me are generally after 8pm or so. Course if someone wants a game or something I'll generally go along unless I'm simply too busy.

I wouldn't mind playing Evo more often, but it's a bit fail for my timezone. This one started at 5PM which is 11PM here which is the time I go to sleep.

It's a shame too, cause I'm so fed up with BA :(
