but given that you ARE in 7 games, get a pen and paper and take some notes
Yeah, 7 May be a bit much. I think 5 is good number of games to be played at once, as long as they are not all started at the same time.
My phone was about to die last night, so I didn't get to elaborate to much. But I think Game Notes would be extremely beneficial to the game. Even if they were as simple as adding a "private" thread under the 'communications' tab.
That way, you can make important notes about a game as the occur. As a preview, I've just gone through a game that is currently in Day 3 @19:00. If I had Game Notes, they would look something like this:
Day 1: Ally with Teal
Day 1: Accidentally declare Total War with Purple in Public Chat
Day 1: Take over one of Purples Factories
-
Day 2: Aggressively Attack Red
Day 2: Split bases with Red and become Allies against Purple
Day 2: Brown makes a Mine
Day 2: Take over another of Purples Factories
Day 2: Purple Resigns
-
Day 3: Start pushing in on Brown
Day 3: Brown pushes in on me from the other side
Day 3: Red betrays me and Teal
Day 3: Red and brown are most likely Allies
That's just one example. As I play more, I'll come up with more ways how this could be extremely beneficial.
Also, I'll start a new game later today and keep track of everything as if I were using 'Game Notes', then paste my notes here when the game has ended.
