This chatroom was originally created by Griffith to set up AoWSM games and worked great for over a year. I think it would be nice to use it for AoW3 too unless someone has a better idea.
The game offers a game list, but it's still nice to have a chatroom to explain house rules, wait for certain players, discuss game settings and ask how much time players have left to play.
Unless someone has a better idea it would be nice if we could get a sticky or something to establish a place as the place to go to meet people for multiplayer.
Any ideas to make this work are welcome! =)

Thanks for reminding me of this! I hadn't thought to use that room for multiplayer set-up in AoW3. I'll probably be there after I play some single player. Given that I have the time.

Hey folks,
Yeah that chatroom is still functional and could help in organizing games, if theres nothing else..
Another, possibly more convenient way of joining there would be through some irc client: network: irc.mibbit.net port: 6667 room: #AoW
That way you could join and stay there automatically whenever you start the client. Personally I use Trillian which allows me to run Skype and IRC etc with the same program.
Hi, we have lobbies and chat in game this time around. So any details could be sorted there.
Then again, the multiplayer chat room can be helpfull pointing you to the lobby you want to be. Also, you can password lock lobbies so you can set up games from the multiplayer chat room without having to kick people.

How is multiplayer handled if your server is down or there is no route to your server ? If only your sever can initiate multiplayer - isn't that a bit fragile ?
