I just finished my fight against my PC. π It means that I formatted the disk, re-installed WinXP ( π ) and other applications. I am afraid that I will not be able to play regularly every week, but I will try to play at least one evening every week.
I like this idea and sort of try to do it already on an irregular basis. I have been off for a couple of weeks for an annual event and am back, but in the next couple of months probably have a house closing and a big move my future, so I can't commit to a time slot. I'll play a couple of rounds of bots when I can squeeze it in like I did last night. In the past I've noticed that once one other player comes on board, it seems like a few more show up out of nowhere. They must notice a server with 2+ players and that's their motivation to pile on.
