What's up, Team9000?
This is an event announcement that I will be hosting a multiplayer game, through Steam, of Civilization V with Brave New World expansion. I will host this game sometime this February or March, with the exact date determined based on the schedules of interested parties. I will open this game exclusively to 3 to 6 additional Team9000 members (so 7 players total including me), but if there's enough interest, I may ask someone else to host another game simultaneously.
If you are interested, here's what I need from you:

This is an event announcement that I will be hosting a multiplayer game, through Steam, of Civilization V with Brave New World expansion. I will host this game sometime this February or March, with the exact date determined based on the schedules of interested parties. I will open this game exclusively to 3 to 6 additional Team9000 members (so 7 players total including me), but if there's enough interest, I may ask someone else to host another game simultaneously.
If you are interested, here's what I need from you:
- Commitment - This event is a weekend marathon. On a party-selected, contiguous Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, I just need at minimum five hours of your time, each day, for playing the game. This will give us at least 15 hours of game time for this event. For me, this is enough time to finish a single player game, but for multiplayer I'm hoping (perhaps too optimistically) that one of us can reach the Industrial Age. If we come to the end of that time and there is still interest in continuing, well, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
- Your Voice - I will be holding a brief (~30 minutes) planning meeting on Mumble this Saturday, Jan 24, at 6:00 pm CST (12:00 am Sunday GMT). We will have a dynamic discussion about the 1) best weekend and 2) the best times during that weekend that works for the interested parties, and then 3) swear a blood oath to commit to that weekend or be sacrificed to the Flying Taco Monster (not really, but if you like occult stuff, you're welcome to). If there's time, we'll discuss game setup. If you cannot attend this meeting, please state your interest below along with a detailed hour-by-hour schedule of your free weekends in the whole of February and March.
- Civ V - It goes without saying that you need a copy of Civ V to play. Current Steam price for the game is 30 USD EDIT: Plus another 30 USD for the BNW expansion, but you might get lucky if a sale hits before the event. Otherwise, all you enthusiasts who got the game when it was 5 bucks give yourselves a pat on the back.
