    To me, the one thing this group will need to determine is how this version of the game will be played. I assumed Scott might have an idea or two and maybe folks that are going to play this version can kick in a few ideas as well.

    I offered to do basically Game #T000 to help get things started in whatever format the new version of the game. Think of my game offer as either the "Coin Toss" or practice game to work out the process and then the rest of you take it from there.

    Checking in. Long as I can keep this laptop-turned desktop running, I'm in. Where we going, Boss?

    (cue the Indiana Jones theme music)

    Bummer........I heard there were some, shall we say, issues with Windows 7. Think I'll stick with XP for a little while longer.

    I can imagine to join the fun, but the same question here:

    How is this supposed to work in detail? Is it an advantage for a team if a member is situated in another time zone, or may it be a disadvantage?

    Another thing is that the next two weeks could be a unfortunate time to find more players since it's the holiday season. Personally I'm leaving for a vacation on December 26th for coming home on January 2nd.

    Not too many rules on this one.

    1. Teams will appoint "Team leaders" That will coordinate the search for the group.

    2. Teams should stay in contact by PM or E-mail. (you wouldn't want to give away
    your findings to the other team)

    3. Any team member can post the solution coordinates.

    4. Have Fun! :tb-smile:
