Does your patch have changes compared to the 2 already existing hotseats?

Most Promising Youngblood TATW: Chieftain Khuzaymah
These hotseats will use the same 0.21 version that is used in 0.21 Vet Hotseat 1. The quick play hotseats will provide valuable experience for unit balance changes in 0.3 version. Faction starting positions are evaluated better in Vet Hotseat and Newblood Hotseat (0.20) 1 and will continue to be evaluated in later hotseats.

A bit of a public service announcement. As king I declare Photobucket an enemy of the realm. I denounce it and strip it of all land and title! In seriousness Photobucket has seemingly gone insane and is demanding 399$ for the ability to share pictures on 3rd party sites, this is the reason your Sig/Pics may not be working if they are hosted there. I recommend the following alternatives: http://imgur.com/ - https://imgbb.com/ - https://imageshack.us/
I made a discord for TWC hotseats, where you can freely (in a reasonable limits)discuss hotseats (or other things) in a friendly and welcoming enviroment. Gaming Staff can be made moderators if they want.
Here goes an eternate invite https://discord.gg/QX5v272

Regarding the recent 'events' held yesterday in my absence - http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?767904 - I invite anyone in the community to ask any relative questions, so long as it's civil.
It would be interesting to see something new pop up in this section.

Spoiler for wait what dragons?:
It's nice to see Third Age Community beeing so active again. I haven't tried balancing patch yet since I haven't play Third Age mod for a very long time but if it will fix biggest balancing issues in hotseats and make games better for all factions it will certainly bring a huge improvement.

I agree. Five active games is more than we've had in a while, and is great to see. The latest patch to come out was the Total Recruitment Patch. That was less about improving balance and more about making factions more interesting (removing barracks event, allowing all units and military buildings to be purchased immediately, etc.). Dragon and I made efforts to keep the factions fairly balanced, but only time will tell if we succeeded.
As I said to joe, if anyone has any new or good idea to improve TATW, feel free to message me and we will see, what can we work out.
"The Dragon is wise, a sage among the ignorant. He knows not all that glitters is gold."
I cannot continue to work under these conditions. I've been Gaming Staff for 4-5 long years (it feels like 20) and handled more private and public drama in the role than any member of Gaming Staff was ever dealt with in the staffs history, all with a level head meditating this and that while organizing games, mods, events, etc etc for the community. In my years as Staff I've seen and done more than my share to help Hotseating evolve and improve with the help of other Staff and overall the last years have been a great success. I had some great times and some extremely stressful ones but I don't regret the years I've put into the community.
I'll not bore anyone with the total history of my service (alot of it behind SnD/Staff Non-Disclosure) but decisive to say I have decided it's past time I retire.
The last months have only gotten more and more stressful; on and offline. I am physically tired of dealing with the stress of it all. I work tirelessly as Staff, and these last months have received an unhealthy amount of stress. I've gotten barely any sleep these past weeks because my mind is occupied with TWC. I am tired. It's been years, and I am both physically and emotionally tired. I can only stress so much before I ask myself... why? It pains me to think on and I cant help but worry I'd have failed the community by not being strong enough to keep suffering through it... but there has to be a line somewhere. If not then it wouldn't shock me if I was found dead of a heart attack one day, with the amount I stress and worry about this community. There MUST be a line. It's with sincere regret and a heavy heart that I draw that line here.
I wish the remaining GS good fortune in the wars to come.

Starting set-up is still being discussed (deviding all the rebel settlements or not)
A Hotseat using Westeros 1.0 is finally up! http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...3#post15550413
A rule has been changed regarding admin positions.
Old rule:
"Admins that do shares codes are trusted with the default admin cap of 5 positions. Gaming Staff have a limit of 10."
Changed rule:
"Admins that do shares codes are trusted with the default admin cap of 5 main admin positions. Gaming Staff have a limit of 10.
Co-Admins don't count as main admins but they got a cap of their own. The co-admin cap is currently 10 per player."
See this thread for the rulechange:
