Aye. I'd feel better if there was an actual date.

TLOPO is planning on having a contest very soon, keep your eyes peeled!
The another remake wikia had a good tutorial on how to get on IRC using KiwiIRC.Yeah, not only WHERE, but can you all list links to all these venues somewhere? Maybe pin the thread of locations at the top of the forum?
Also, can you do a tutorial on HOW TO GET INTO IRC? When I heard contests or giveaways might happen in there I decided to break down and go in (I don't generally like IRC, don't do Facebook or Twit but if it means a shot at Alpha, I'll give in and make accounts just for pirate business). I tried to sgn in to IRC and it kicked me and said I had to sign up at someplace called Gamesurge. I did all that then it gave some message about entering some code somewhere to get validated with no instructions as to where or how to do that. It is a very meager site when it comes to information and not all of us are geeks you know...

Except instead of using "#piratesonlinerewritten", join "#tlopo".
You need to be authenticated with GameSurge in order to join the channel, to do that go to www.gamesurge.net/newuser. There's a whole tutorial on how to make an account and how to "auth".
If you join on Kiwi and get kicked saying to register, type in "/authserv auth yourGameSurgeUsername yourGameSurgePassword", if you auth correctly you should get a notice saying "I recognize you", then type "/join #tlopo" and you're good to go.

was lucky enough to win it on here wich im always active on hereJust type in your username (and password if you have it) at the login screen you're talking about. Once you do that it should let you in, however you'll get kicked from the channel. Once that happens, you will then enter those commands into the chat bar at the bottom.
Here, I'll do a quicky step by step guide assuming you've got your password stuff all figured out.
Step 1: Log in screen. Just enter your info. (For me entering the password still usually fails, oh well. Congrats if you get lucky and your password works). If you don't enter a password, everything should still happen the same.
Step 2: Identify yourself. This is the /authserv AUTH command that everyone's talking about. Type this command in the chat box at the bottom of the page as shown where it says "send message...". Don't worry, your password won't be shown to anyone as long as you have the / in front of the command.
(If you've gotta change your password using the command you mentioned above, this is also where you'd do it.)
Step 3: Join the channel. Type /join #tlopo into the chatbox
Have fun and follow the rules. And don't pester Mike for an alpha key
Since I know nothing of what is involved with recreating the game it is difficult for me to assess the speed at which the job is coming along. I think we have seen a good amount of progress.
I do wish, since so few are able to play in Alpha, that we could at least have more opportunities to watch live streams whether from developers or just some of the few who are allowed in. Even without major updates to put on display being able to watch real game play also might help keep up the interest of people who have stopped interacting much what with the never ending forum dramas, the wait, etc.
Just a FYI, a lot of people post that they are livestreaming in the TLOPO irc channel. The links are there, perhaps we could get someone to maybe post that link here when someone posts they are livestreaming? I'm not always on irc, but when I am, I wouldnt mind posting the link here on a new thread maybe titled "TLOPO livestreams" if you think that would help? I'm sure others who are on the irc that are also members here wouldn't mind. ... thoughts on that?
