Faction Auction (“Players choose their Faction” is automatically included in this)
have created the premier league game.
@Schlotzky is on to nominate a faction.
Thanks, got it.
Sorry all, was traveling yesterday. Just took my faction selection turn.
GG all - not really sure on the debrief, but little robot guys went okay for federations and expanding and double tech per turn.
Wow, I had to check the app because I could not believe you did make 34 points in your last turn. Well done! Gg All.
holy moly!
what a mistake!
i had taken @Baelnor’s last screenshot as end of the game shot 
problem is that @geigerm and @doublebullout have changed places since the
“not so final” screenshot.
that means the correct 2nd divison game must be:
@Hardco (pls create the game)
@jason1002
@kennfusion
@doublebullout
and the corrected waiting list is:
@Caradog
@geigerm
i can only hope that the “wrong” 2nd division game had not started yet 
if already under way it must be aborted or can be played on as practice game.
sorry, it was my mistake.
if you don’t feel like starting a new game all over again, i can understand that very well.
in this case let’s just skip the 2nd division season and abandon the idea of playing in divisions.
instead the waiting list (for playing in the title match) would be then:
@kennfusion
@Caradog
—————————
@Hardco
@jason1002
@doublebullout
@geigerm
so if you like the idea of playing in divisons (more activity than just sitting in a “normal” waiting line), please take the burden on you to start and play the new and correct 2nd division game.
if not, then just…sit in the waiting line as usual.
The “wrong” game is in round 3, so I’d certainly like to finish it—I badly need the practice!
Yes I am in this same wrong game, and my Hadsch Hallas just built their planetary institute. So they have something to do with all this money they have.
so i suggest to go on.
you can play the correct 2nd division game when the “practice game” will be finished.
the rest of the challenge will be put on a hold then.
I don’t want our game to cause the rest of the challenge to be put on hold. We could play the right game alongside the wrong game.
wow! that’s the spirit!
what do the other players say?
the rightful 2nd division game is:
@Hardco (pls create the game)
@jason1002
@kennfusion
@doublebullout
my apologies again for my blunder 
I’m okay to play both. I don’t have @doublebullout on my friends list though. Can someone else create? Otherwise I will wait for him to accept.
Just accepted, thanks! Good to go.
Sorry, I have not been following this conversation closely, but I am down for whatever. I almost always have the bandwidth to play more games of anything.

@JMH.75, notification problems or just very busy?
96-hours-poke.
Sry, notification missed, turn taken
Notifications seem to be hit or miss lately, possibly connected with iOS 16 and GC changes? I’ve missed a few lately too.
