Re-thinking pbem
i think we should consider another type of game. The patch made turnbased alot better. We could save and reload the game be alot faster  , just give it some consideration.

I imagine we will do a combination, with PBEM going on throughout the week, and turnchats scheduled at convenient times.

Actually I think the turnchats are going to be PBEM based where we just send the sav to the next team in rapid succession. I assume that each team will have a group of players at some chat site to discuss what is going on and such....

You cannot switch between game types from what I know.

Why do that? turnbased game and playing pbem in a turnchat is exactly the same thing.

Check out my "an idea: Simultaenous turnchat" forum (too lazy to link :P ) It may be possible we may start a simultaneous game and convert to PBEM. Might work as great accelerated start, but there are some problems. (Check the forum)
