So when is multiworlds to be released again?

Login Closes in about a days time, its just a matter of closing the site, transferring the stuff over and re-opening. Call it 3 days. (Hopefully sooner, but there could be issues)

Okay, thanks! (and I'm glad I viewed the HTML page source 'cause I actually believed this became PSM

)

When do you think we will know more details about the individual worlds so alliances can work stuff out?

You will know very soon.
It is only a couple of days till the end of current round. When Multi-world is officially launch, announcements will be made concerning the features.

As for the individual worlds, we have no detail about them yet. They will be generated by the system automatically when the server is ready.

This may have been covered already but I don't recall... Will we be able to pick and choose what world we play in or are we going to randomly be scattered about?

We get to pick which world we join. So the details of each world will be displayed and we get to decide which one we want to play.

If the world is not full, you should be able to join it. There will be private worlds, but not on this release.

Do we have an exact ETA on multiworlds? I know it's gonna be the next "round" but like when it'll open back up.

Can I assume thursday/friday, 5PM US eastern standard (rollover time here in GMT-5)?

An exact estimated time of arrival.....what an oxymoron.

StephenM · **Reply #55 on:** April 01, 2008, 08:56:20 pm

I've been saying 2-3 days. Hopefully all going well there will be no major issues. But I cannot guarantee it.

So, do you know how many worlds there will be?

waerth · **Reply #57 on:** April 02, 2008, 12:26:35 am

I hope one that starts in 1920

1920:

Wright flyer
Seats: 1
Speed: 23 knots
Range: 900 meters
Engine: Your arms

It'll work great for those hops from Wall Street to Brooklyn

Public worlds are constrained at the moment to the 1950-2007 band of years, and no. I don't know how many worlds there will be until it happens. Nor does stephen. Nor Balint, Nor lamp. nor carpet. nor desk.

we'll find out what happens when it happens. At the moment i'm thinking sufficient worlds to support around 3700-3900 players, as there's about 3200 purportedly active at the moment.

That should be sufficient, i hope, to allow for a natural progression from there as need be.
