I'm looking forward to embarrassing myself with a bunch of other people right from the get go. Maybe the first person to get a 16 player FoH region setup can just post what server they are on here and we can all join up.
Yup - there are only 3 regions w/ 16 cities anyways. From what I've seen, its a simple process to setup (ie name the region and invite 15 others). You do have to be on the same server to play in the same region iirc.

Let's get some ideas for our first region name and then we'll make an IRC channel named after it, we can use that to figure shit out on Monday night.

I've never played SimCity5 so I won't know wtf to do but I'm down for making my first city in a RR region anyway.

My pragmatic region name idea: March2013_Rerolled.org

Do you know when it goes live? If it's 5pm to midnight EST I'll be around. Or do they have a serverlist somewhere?

I also don't know if the server necessarily matters? You can be on multiple servers right? And whatever horse shit non-city based attributes (ex, achievements or god forbid some kind of leveling system for your mayor character) is cross server?
Must be same server to play in same region. Anyone can play on any server and have cities on multiple servers.

Servers have a global economy? I think? Just read that in that FAQ posted 2 pages ago. No idea how that works.

Count me in as a lurker that's going to join Trannyvania. Expect many a trailer home in Failuretown.

I'll join up if there is room. I'm thinking I might go heavy on cops and firemen so that Keg's citizens can't get into my neighborhood.

Trannyvania is a terrific name. Just logged in to Amazon to pre-load... looks like those fuckers changed that, as I don't see the option to download before the 5th. Typical.

So uhh, wasn't I supposed to be able to download this shit today? Amazon says I can't start downloading until the 5th.

I want to play this weekend.

After initially being suckered into pre-ordering with the cagrocks code, I have regained my senses and cancelled it.

Good luck not getting micro transactioned to death.

Not that its rocket science or anything, but here is a guide to setting up a region and inviting friends:

Hmm, seems like you can either make it public and I assume random people can search for your region and cock it over, or you have to make it private and the only way to join is for the owner to manually invite you. I was hoping I could make a region with some name and people would be able to manually enter the name in and join.

I'm sure there will be room. There's no spots filled, just show up to the irc channel (name not picked yet) at release. If I can't download the shit until 3am or at release someone else will have to manage the region creation.
