Since standard games keep on filling extremely slowly I'd like to bring back this game idea we had quite some time ago.

So my question to all readers, before we ask Stefan to do the coding: Would you be interested in one-on-one games as described below?

I'd appreciate everybody to respond, no matter if the answer is yes or no. I prefer a concrete reaction over silence :wink:

Thanks & Cheers,
Mike

So my idea for such a 1:1 game goes for a "Mirror Universe" setup: a starmap with two clusters, far away. Player one plays, say, Feds in one cluster and Klingons in the other; player two plays Klingons in the first, and Feds in the other. Means, everyone submits two TRN files per turn. I'm not sure how that's going to work out. Anyway, no matter how we do it, this "choose your own race" thing needs some coding in front-end and back-end (or manual setup).

This sounds like a great idea, match and rematch in one game. Perfect solution in my mind! :smile:

I just hope that a substantial number of players will appreciate the time and effort you put into this. So far there was just very little feedback and I would hate to cause you additional work for a project that lacks acceptance from those it is meant for...

Cheers,
Mike
