Do you guys know about Ironclad Online (ICO)?  It isn't necessary for people to have to schedule game times or wait until their friends are available.  Instead you can play against other people (or play comp stomps against the AI) anytime on ICO without having to wait for friends or to adhere to a schedule.  (Nothing wrong with playing with your friends, I'm just saying that no one should feel limited to that.)  Just click the <Ironclad Online> button register your CD-key, create a player name, <use player> that name, and you're good to go.  You can also find larger games online, such as 5v5.

So, consider yourselves as having been cordially invited to join the Sins online multiplayer community.  If you guys have Diplomacy, now is a great time to come online because there are a number of newer players around.

Myself and another fiend play a few days during the week about the same time as you (11:00pm - 5:00am US Central time).  We play on ICO and have a tough time getting people to playwith us.  We want to play the same type of games as you do 2v2,3v3,or FFA.  We ont like playing fast games, normal is our speed too.  I you would like to join up or some games let me know.  We are no pros either.  We have ony been playing a couple months but are familiar with the game and find computers to be boring and predictable.  the human elliment of surprise is what we are craving now.  My ICO name I go by is McJaggor. 

I would like to have a regular crew to pay with.

There is something wrong, when I try to create a accuont it say's "Disconnected from server". Please help.

hi.

i just recently got the nerve to try multiplayer. haven't actually played an avtualy pvp game yet. want to try though and you guys seem pretty cool and chill. so yeah. would totally join your games.

Is that Vladimir Lenin as your avatar, or some Swiss dude?  Am I correct in guessing that you live in Switzerland?

make ur speeds faster and more will join...games take long enough as it is and normal speeds take even longer. longer game = less ppl willing to play...

Ah, Cannuck Lenninists.

IDK about the OP, but I play on normal because I prefer a relaxed rate of play where you don't HAVE to be constantly clicking on something to stay in the game.  Make it too fast and it takes all the fun out of it for me.

Seleucia, are you on Vanilla Sins, Entrenchment, or Diplomacy?  Most of the humans v. humans action is on Diplomacy between the hours of 7 pm - Midnight U.S. Eastern Time.  (However, most people are playing with the Fast or Faster speed settings now.  Faster speed can be a trip if you're not used to it.)

Yeah, that's where it gets tricky.  Adjusting to a different speed can throw your sense of adequacy off.  The nice thing about the faster speeds is that it does shave time off how long it takes to play a game.

I'm interested, I'm going to be purchasing Diplomacy in the near future. Also, you might want to consider creating a group on xfire so you can manage all the people interested in playing games?
