Meanwhile we start preparations for launching LT45 very soon. LT45 could be started by mid August. We can open the signups tomorrow.
While signups for LT45 are open we can talk about what kind of game LT45 will be. The ruleset is based on LT44 and there will be no changes or very minimal ones. That's at least the current plan.
The options for LT45 are the following:
1) We will do a 5 team game if we can figure out who 5 team leaders we can have for picking the teams. One team leader picks at a time. The team leaders will be turned into regular players once the game starts. Obviously however they may have very good ideas about how to play so play with the team. If LT45 will be a team game, we need some ideas about how to handle idlers and what to do with replacement players.
2) If the teams can't be figured out early enough LT45 will be teamless. This means having 5 team leaders who are willing to pick in discord, email or with irc in real time when the signups close. We need to know this about 10 days before the end of signups.
We try to avoid idlers and especially with the team game option we may require signup, confirmation on the web page and also a possible reply to admins's e-mail. The e-mail may or may be required and it will be sent to the e-mail address you have given. This is just to make sure you are there
