Title: New Private Game - Gathering 25 players
Post by: ali5541 on September 21, 2009, 04:15:45 PM
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.

Initial Players:

ali5541 (JFK)
NorgeFly (LGW)
flyer123 (ORD)
oggie84 (LAX)
Samo (FRA)
Jona L.  (MUC)
KoningBoer (JFK)
Dorito_25  (WSSS)
Strider (CYYC)
apenfold (EGLL)
masoniclight (KLAS)
Seattle (PEK)
Howard (OMDB)
Jake43 (KSEA)
Brockster (HND)
Ks (HGK)
Dasha (SVO)
Luke (FCO)
Doctor House  (PEK)
swiftus27 (RJAA)
T8KE0FF (DXB)
Nick Wood  (PHNL)
hatrickwah  (KDEN)
Kaloboi (LAX)
Tim (CDG)
Davva9961 (LEMD)
carloscarlos (AMS)

Spots Available: List is open! Please post your user name and airport you wish to be in. Thank You!

Airports Fully Claimed:


Airports with 1 Spot Left:

New York-JFK
PEK

To be part of the initial list and have the 48 hour head start, please list your user name (Game Name) and your requested airport. Please make sure your airport is not taken! Since this list is not updated in real time, check a few post above you to make sure your airport spot is not taken. First Come First Serve! Thank You!

P.S.: The top number of players I will go with is 125, the point of this private game is to be small!

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.

Title: Re: New Private Game - Gathering 25 players
Post by: NorgeFly on September 21, 2009, 05:18:31 PM
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.

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.

Post by: masoniclight on September 22, 2009, 08:47:35 PM
If I could we should make this scenario a bit more challenging.. I propose we use only South America and Africa as our world.. that would make things VERY interesting and make people think abit more.. just my .02 influence.
Title: Re: New Private Game - Gathering 25 players
Post by: Dorito_25 on September 22, 2009, 09:43:42 PM
I know it isn't challenging and very easy - but that's the point of why I want to join. I know what I need to do in these games, I just want to see if I am able to be a big airline. I'm struggling a bit in the other games as I seem to be too slow.
Are there any suggestions of ways I can 'promote' the available spots?
Title: Re: New Private Game - Gathering 25 players
Post by: ali5541 on September 22, 2009, 11:18:27 PM
As said, this game is meant to be easy, please, I already cut back many portions of the game I really wanted as well as increase the number of possible players by 50. If anyone can help me promote, please tell your friends in the game about the sign-up!

I'm willing to join... what are the costs?

I will only join if I get SVO. Is it possible to allow connecting flight through DME?

i.e. if I want to fly to London from Shervo can I make a pitstop at Domodedovo? In 'normal' games this is allowed but since this is private could this be included?
Title: Re: New Private Game - Gathering 25 players
Post by: swiftus27 on September 23, 2009, 01:34:11 PM
The scope of the game is still WAY too big.  Too many airports for too few players.  We tried this once and it was just a joke.

Post by: Runner on September 23, 2009, 03:27:24 PM
Watch who your challenging! Swiftus is good  ;)

And he has a very solid point: the first private game (from Skylink, I believe) only included North America and Europe, with 30 players. But as Swiftus said, there was just no competition at all. Within a year, I had ordered 150 Airbus A319's. It is going to be to easy, and eventually: boring! So consider yourself warned!  :o 8)
Title: Re: New Private Game - Gathering 25 players
Post by: swiftus27 on September 23, 2009, 03:35:17 PM
Smaller player games would be EASY if left as is.  I have been BEGGING for Sami to only limit the airports to those larger than a certain size (80?)

I was in Las Vegas with 95% market share and making millions.  I owned my entire fleet and had NOWHERE to grow. 

Personally, I think that this game is Sami's attempt to quietly figure out how to get players into the games when they are already underway.
Title: Re: New Private Game - Gathering 25 players
Post by: ali5541 on September 23, 2009, 03:59:03 PM
List Updated! 5 more spots open! Would Seattle and swiftus27 please provide an airport! Everyone else has been added, thanks for the sign-up! Anyone else care to join?

BTW; referring to Skylinks Private 30, that only has about 27 players. This game will allow upto 125 for three continents. Plus, the main reason for this private game is so that it is not very difficult!

Alright, list has been updated! 2 Spots Remain! C'mon people, please don't let it stick on the last 2 spots. Another 2 players and we might get this game going! However one airport has been fully claimed!

swiftus, there is a 24 hour delay, however you get a head start of 48 hours (2 days) or 72 hours with the delay. But we can't get this game going If I can't find at least another 2 players!

Hi everyone, sorry for the delay, Sami has informed me that he will give me a schedule but not now. He has told me to keep the list open and to allows players to sign-up on the initial list for now. For those who thought that we could get the game going in the next few days, so did I, but sami told me to wait a bit because there are plenty of gameworlds available. He said it won't be long though, so lets hope for the best.

Well, partly because any schedule hasn't been even discussed yet, partly my mistake of course. I have only gotten two emails about this and asked the "founder" to first see if there is potential for such game world and after that we can lock the details, now we have that and can check the game details now. There are still ~150+ spaces in Beginner #2 available still and a total of 5 running worlds so adding another quite yet isn't a good option in my mind.

Many of us aren't allowed to join the Beginners #2 game so this new "easy" game would be a great alternative. Sooner it starts the better in my opinion.

As he said, we can't really join the beginners world, so were not really benefiting from the new world that you created. I really want to get this game going and as fast as possible. (not to sound real rash, I'm very grateful for this game and the ability to create custom game worlds)

I have to agree with Sami on this, there are a lot of games still running. The Modern Times#1 is full and the beginner world is pretty empty besides the fact the we can't play in it. I'm guesing that our world won't open till a week or two away until the beginner world is past 50%?

Honestly, I just want to get this game going. In the history of Airway Sim, we only had one private game. I'm trying to make it two and keep it small!

until the game starts, I have to keep taking sign-ups. so we can have alot of initial players, but it the max is still 125 players.

you need to sign-up so you can confirm a seat in this small game, additionally, you get a 48 hour head start when the game begins. and im sorry, the airport you choose, you need to stick to unless you bankrupt or leave the game and re-enter.

Title: Re: New Private Game - Gathering 25 players
Post by: Dasha on October 07, 2009, 08:30:00 AM
I don't like him.... for a few reasons.

1) He is too arogant and goes down way too much.
2) I doubt he is very romantic
3) I think I got more money in my future than he has
4) He is a guy....



Why not start the new game from work, like me :D
