Good Day Everyone, I am organizing a private game (then becoming a Semi-Public) world. The game world will consist of 100 players; the 25 players gathered here will get a 48 hour ahead start, then the game world will become Semi-Public meaning the last 75 slots will open to the public to join. The game world will consist of the following settings and rules:

Game Period: Jan-1990 to Jan-2020 (Modern Age)
Day Length: 25min per day
Aircraft Available: All
Areas Included: North America, Europe, and Asia
Number of Players: 25 Initially; 100 Later (Total of 125)
Starting Cash: 5 000 000
Skill Level: Easy
Payment: 5 credits to join, 1 credit every week (New Payment Method)
Fuel Prices: Real World-Future Predicted

This is a longer game when compared to the other games, so it will cost more when combined to the end. This private game is like the beginners world combined with the end of the Jet Age game, leading into the Modern Age. The purpose of this private game is to create a smaller game with less competition and more connectivity between players. This game would be great for beginners trying to interact with other players and learn there way around the game.

Rules: Since it is a big game with little players, I want to limit the number of competition per airport, and so I want only three airlines per airport. No more then that; below is a list of initial players with the airport claimed; be sure to check all the lists before listing your name and the airport you wish to be in.

Actually, have to add that there has not been any discussion about the cost of this private game world yet and also the other world specifications are not really "locked", these mentioned here are their requests. For example the 7mil startup money sounds high to me, but those can be settled later on.

We briefly discussed thru email and I asked first to map the potential players interested in this as the previous experiences on private game worlds have shown that the requested scenario is not very likely to work due to the low number of players and high number of airports - it would possibly become boring quickly as there is effectively no competition and the play time is very long. And also would ultimately lead to players leaving the scenario before completion and causing us to lose part of the associated income.

But if you are interested then please reply here and we can see how much interest / potential this would have. But please remember to consider that the world would be very long one with these requested specifications. Naturally if there is enough interest in this we are happy to arrange such world.

I'm for this game, but maybe Americas and Europe only.. this could be fun. Nothing hard, but fun :)

I agree it could get boring, maybe just one continent would be better, perhaps Europe.

And maybe some random surprises like large drops in demand that last several months, either across the whole game world or between particular countries. These would reflect world events (non-specific fictional events randomly modelled into the game) such as recessions, terrorist attacks or wars etc. It would make it a little more interesting if we didnt know exactly what was around the corner. At the moment, the only variable for people to worry about is rising fuel prices; shifting demand would be an extra layer of realism.

World Airline: HKG when we will play the whole world, otherwise ORD

Way too few players here. 

Either Sami needs to limit the number of airports in the game or this one will have everyone making a ton of money with little or no competition.
