Sorry I missed your latest message Nazgand. If you post a message on the 18th and then edit it on the 20th, the edited message doesn't show up as unread, so I didn't see there was new information.

The above links show as broken when you click on them. Instead try:

How are mistre and Hippo feeling about getting the game started under these conditions? How long do we need to get the teams signed up on pbworks? How will the coordinators be able to verify that the requests to join the teams are legitimate? (e.g. suppose someone who is not me asks to sign up with the e-mail fritzjuhnke@gmail.com, which is not my e-mail but looks plausible.) How awkward is it going to be to discuss over there instead of here, and how many people will be deterred from participating for that reason?

I think it is fine to divide the teams that way, allowing people to switch before the game starts if they want to. (It's not like we can verify what country anyone is from anyway.) Adanac told me he would probably join the World Team once the game got started, and I expect several Europeans will probably pitch in as well.
Another useful step would be to persuade Omar to put an announcement of the game, with a game start date, in the announcements section of the game room, and to link the respective discussion pages from the Community section in the upper right of the game room.

I won't really mind using a different site in principle, although if the mechanics are unwieldy that might be problematic. (I've never actually used pbworks before, so I'm not sure how true that might be.) As a note, those links are broken, they're trying to go to a subset of the forum it seems, the fixed links follow
Mob: http://arimaamob.pbworks.com
Gang: http://arimaagang.pbworks.com
Edited to add: I just made an access request to the mob site, that much at least seems very straightforward.

So the account for gangsters is created, Hippo is currently using the gangsters account. Gangsters ... create your account on pboworks.com and request access to arimaagang workspace. Currently there is only one gangster (Hippo) registered except the gangsters account itself.

Ah, that's a good way to associate pbwiki accounts with Arimaa usernames. (Note that e-mail addresses have to be shared with the coordinator anyway for the Condorcet voting site we were using before.)

Because of the lack of ROW members I've decided to change teams.
I also sent a message to the mob administrator in pbworks requesting access (at that moment I wasn't aware of the number of members), just ignore it, I'll will send one to the gang administrator.

OK, I've registered for the Gang.
By the way when are we to start the game?
I could well have some troubles with active participation until mid July, then I should be fully online.

So we are the gang. I think Quebecois use the word "gang" quite liberally, often meaning something like "band of friends". I suppose the same goes in English. In French though the word only stands for a gang of criminals, it feels super weird when someone says "Great, I'm a gangster now"

As for when we start, I think as soon as TheGang has 6 members. Then, knowing which color we are, we could start squabbling about which setup is best. Which leads me to wonder: has anyone done an analysis on the game db to see which setup leads to the highest percent wins? If so, I would be interested. Obviously, low level bots bias the results against their setups.
Edit: Scratch that; we should start the game now and let people join while setup is decided.
