New Record For Active Games!

I'm gonna' do it. I'm going for 1300. But I will need help to get there. I plan on creating all of the needed games, but I need them to be joined so I can keep a high number active at a time. Settings will be automatic, chained, no spoils, sequential for ALL 1300 games. But what should I create? Which maps? How many players? Advice from anyone who has suggestions would be welcome.

EDIT:

Please join these games so I can get to 1300 active!!! Thanks! You will receive recognition for joining these!

You guys have already filled 47 8 man esc. THANKS!

i suggest you make some games on maps like madagascar, italy, france, germany

simple maps that you don't need to think too long and hard about where someone's bonus is coming from or where you should be attacking

age of realms 2, feudal war, feudal epic & peloponesian war fill rather quickly so start some 6, 6, 8 & 8 player games on those maps. your turns will come around about once a week. + AoR2 will finish in about 7 rounds so you won't be stuck at 1300 games for long.

pm me when you're starting - i'll join some for you :D

If your pc is fast you should set aside at least 16 hours a day

I played almost all 1v1 games though

It will take a few days to even build up to 1300 games

Try not to become a cook--I dropped to srgt or srgt 1c but not for long

The other two who tried it dropped to cook because when u r not playing everyone else is

All of us did end up missing turns--falling asleep at the pc becomes natural

Okay, I have decided to do half 8man seq esc and half doodle quads. So now is where I need some help. I will need these games to fill VERY quickly so I can get up to 1300 games. When I begin creating I will post here and people can join them. I will begin creating the games on Friday evening. Theoretically it would be nice if I could find several sets of three players that would play with me on doodle earth. If I had 6 teams, that would only be about 100 games each. Anyone up for this? If you want I could do more/less. But more is preferable. =D

Thanks, man. I will do 250 on AOR1 and 250 on AOR2. I'm actually learning AOR3 right now. If I get it figured out then we can split it 3 ways.

well i can play few games on peloponesian war map.
pelo war-8player are great for that,because simple you have few days before your turn its to play,and also its quite easy to play first 4-5 turns, you have plenty neutrals who give you space to play fast, no need to think to much.

I will make the games on Friday evening. We can split the games on all the AOR1, AOR2, AOR3. But how long will 8man esc take to fill?

why escalating, you want the games last for some time, also make them sequential

I don't want them to last for a long time. I want just the opposite. That's why I am going with the AOR games. Cause they will end soon.
