1. we have already offered a team game - - you recruit a team of 4-5 players, we recruit a similar one. On this server, you can set any race to any player number - choose the races. You can arrange it in a week or two.

Well, this is actually the exact opposite of my idea. It might help to start another game quickly but it will be nothing new. Just another 5vs5 as we have seen so often before.

I have been thinking about what might serve as a compromise solution and the following has come to my mind: In order to combine these two conflictive game concepts I suggest what is called "Davis-Cup" in Tennis. 3 (or more) players of one team play 1on1 and maybe 2on2-games against the other team. The team with most victories will win in the end.

I have been verifying upfront with some of my contacts. 2 more players have accepted to join without reservations so we could form a team of 3. A 4th player has agreed to join as soon as his current game is finished.

I hope this will meet everybody's requirements. If you and your fellow countrymen want to accept the challenge let us know and we may ask Stefan to do the coding.

This is a testing version.
It may be incomplete, and have more bugs (or features) than the public live version at planetscentral.com.
