Title: Replacement Players (Temporary) in MP
Post by: Mart on September 14, 2015, 07:23:49 PM

Post here if:

• You intend to be a replacement player in multiplayer games for some period only (temporary).
• You need a player for a replacement in one of the MP games you are in.

The idea is to be able to replace someone in an MP game only for some time, as it happens, that players drop out, but later we think they may return. It is not guaranteed, that this period will be short or long, or even replacement will last till the game completion/solution, but when the original player comes back to forum, such replacement player is supposed to yield to that player in the game participation.

Although, when you decide to be such player, your game participation may be short, you are supposed to play to the best of your abilities.
No 'hidden agendas,' like you do not care if this is going to be only temporary, so "what do I care? Let's see now how no. 1 goes down the drain..."
Or 'evil intentions,' like "Ha! he defeated me in last MP, now he is absent in that game, so I replace him and screw that faction of his..."

The first request for a replacement player:

We have special rules in that game - promoting diplomacy and builder strategy. No vendettas between human players, although probe team warfare is allowed. AI are enhanced to compensate and give some challenge to make some vendettas possible.

Replacement is for Data Angels.  MY 2124.
