I’m up for picking but will give P and V a bit more time before I do.

Still waiting to finish my last two games from MP6.
Not many armies left to pick. Dancer is broken. That leaves Hegemony, Vegas, Jungle. Rolling a d3 - 2.
That means Hegemony.
Aw son of a
Why did I give you more time!
Wait, there aren’t enough armies. Uummmmm…

There are 13 of us. What if we let people double up on an army if they want to, and they won’t play each other, and then I’ll randomize things so that everyone has 1 person they don’t play to balance things out? That seems simple.
If that’s okay, then I’d let the group who has already chosen armies decide if they want to double up, and then the remaining five of us can pick.
Fine by me. I’ll pick New York as my second army.
I meant that you could switch to an army that someone else already has, if you’d like.
Love the idea of having TWO armies each, though! If everyone played fairly quickly, I’d pursue that idea.

Dirklectisch! Welcome to the league :D. What’s your GC? I’ll send you a welcome match! I’m clyve, if you’d rather invite me.
Care if we call you Dirk? Your name is a big one :P
Or DL? ;)
Send me a practice game too if you’d like! I’m Ananab Tilps.
Hi Clyve! My GC name is also Dirklectisch. I think I just added you as a friend. But there is no way to see if my invitation is actually pending. Feel free to invite me if you didn’t get it.
Not at all. Dirk is my first name. My nickname is a sort of mashup between my first name and dyslectisch (which means dyslexic in dutch). It’s long but always available… ;-)
Got your invite and accepted. I’ll play Vegas vs you so you can see one of the new armies in action!
I’m not staying to chat, Dirk, cuz the chat feature stinks. There’s no indication that the other person is typing, and chats aren’t saved. So I could be like,
“Hey Dirk, great to have you in the league! This match we’re having is really good. That was a nice move when you FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU–”
Melting Pot 7 armies chosen:
Dirklectisch - Borgo
jaygittings - Doomsday
dannimal - New York
Scottyboie - Moloch
ankamela - Steel Police
Sotnik - Sharrash
soondifferent - Smart
Joe Bolt - Outpost
Because there are more players than armies, here’s what we’ll do:
The people above can swap to an army that is already taken, as long as someone else hasn’t already doubled-up on that army. After a short time of these swaps (if any), then the remaining people can either pick from the remaining armies or double up on an already-claimed army.
Then, when we start, everyone will have 1 opponent that they will not play. Doubled-up people won’t play each other, and everyone else will be randomly matched with someone who they won’t play.
So, anyone in that top group want to switch armies?
I didn’t expect you to. That vegas army is pretty cool! I have been practicing in single player against new york & steel police. I like how much they have been able to do within the system with those different armies. This game is quickly growing to be my favourite on the iOS platform.

It is easily one of the best! You’ll get years out of this game :)

I’ll take Neojungle in our welcome match.
Man that was close. Our game ended in a 12/12 draw. Those vegas dudes have some heavy pestering abilities. Turning the table on you every turn. :-)
Dirk 12, Dave 12! Rematch!
