I'd say the same comments apply as I made in the Resnakening topic. (see the earlier-given link) If you want to start up a Snakes! game, get me (erikh@caravelgames.com) the following info:
* The arena to use.
* Length of time in minutes for each turn.
* Usernames or DROD Numbers for a list of committed players.
* Date and time you would like the contest to start. The date should be on a weekend. The time should be between 11am and 11pm PST.
Consider that given the turn length, player count, and desired duration of a game, you can calculate a suitable size for an arena. Last time, I suggested 10 players, 1 minute iteration, about 2 hour game duration, and the arena size worked out to around 34x34 squares. I believe you will have best luck finding people and not getting bogged down in consensus-building if you set the terms for a game early and ask who will join.
