i donāt think so.
the āproblemā is that anybody can join.
so when we want to play a game with SP friends itās a good idea to start a game at a certain time.
at least it is no longer a death sentence when a random stranger should join.
good news: Sebastian Mellin from Brettspielwelt just answered to my email and says he likes the idea of password protected games and will take a close look on that option. very promising!
Iām in. 1 spot left by the looks of it
great!
@KYakerDude, i have seen you in the lobby and hoped you would join too.
still one slot open.
@Mysterio? @irishdomer08? @Hardco? @Baelnor? @Mirefox (always ready to check out things)? @kennfusion? @Schlotzky? @JMH.75? our blogger @whovian223 (journalists have to check out things)? @js619? @Codington? @robthomasson? @zen4one? @Dave? anybody?
game has started! even notifications seem to work.
You saw me lurking!?! Creepy.
I have no memory about how to play this game.
Darn just too late. Fingers crossed the game works now - report back 
Hi Spice, i knew i had forgotten someone important to me in my notifications 
oh, it feels so good to be back in Eclipse! the soundtrack! the vibe! the great graphics!
replays are working too. could just watch Kyakerās move. zebraās move now.
letās see if he gets a notification.
it was easy to get the game started by posting a timestamp.
why donāt we do it for SCYTHE too?
just an UI tip:
keep pressing down a fingertip on the empire icons in bottom-left corner to see the infrastructure of opponents (ship designs, technology, initiative etc).
but iām puzzled if we had a log in the old days? and where is it possibly now?
Iād do it for Scythe. In the past, whoever I okayed with here agreed on a time and we all set our alarms for it. Once the game was created everything worked well, though I wish there were turn replays instead of just a log.
Is Eclipse still iPad-only?
iāve read something like āfonts are too small on a phone displayā in the appstore reviews.
so it may be possible but not recommended.
but iām not sure about it.
wow, so you have already played a game of async Scythe.
could it be finished? was it any fun?
I have played a few async games of Scythe ā¦ one with @Mirefox ā¦ and enjoyed them all ā¦ without exposing my potential ā¦
Yeah, outside of setup it worked well. Scores were displayed and my only complaint, like I said, is lack of replays but thatās not a game breaking thing. Just be prepared to see a changed game state and look through a log to determine why.
reminds me on TfMā¦
but Eclipse on the other hand has very good replays 
So, is it working?
Iāve been playing a bunch of all-Terran games against the AI and Iāve really forgotten how to handle the early game. AI is zooming around in dreadnaughts killing ancients while Iām wondering where my actions have gone. No worries, Iāll be ready for the next game 
The other UI thing Iāve found which I definitely didnāt know is that a two-finger tap on the screen colours in the empiresā borders, making ownership much easier to see than squinting at corners of hexes.
So far so good.
And that two finger tap tip is great, thanks!
hahaha, so you havenāt looked into ācontrolsā?
itās shown there.
How did your game of Eclips go?
Yes, I was wondering this. And if it worked, anyone want a game?
The games progressing well. The only issue is sometimes my online lobby list wonāt load properly. I force close the app and that lets me see the games most times.
Iād be up for another game
