Star Ambassador only games?

[MasterGR]

Reading the original post with the roles designations, it was mentioned that Star Ambassador was an honorary only title. It was also mentioned that there is no option to create games exclusively for Star Ambassadors, because it is a small pool of people.

Since it's been longer than 5 years since these roles were introduced, I was wondering if it is possible to revisit this (and my apologies if this has come up recently). Perhaps the Star Ambassador pool is much bigger now? I'd love to have the option to play with other very communicative players, as the game quality is much higher when more communicative players are playing. And I find that unfortunately many of the regular Ambassadors rarely communicate.

I came close to setting up one of these as a Classicist game (with password) but we didn’t quite find 7 Stars (I think it was 5 out of the final 7 players).

However, may I immediately advertise PDL 2020? (see Woolgie’s excellent introductory post)

You’ll get talk in those games, oh yes, you’ll get talk alright!

Ask Alman. He had to investigate one of my games in PDL 2018 for rule breaking. It took him days to read all the messages!

Great job was done of course. Patience of a saint that man

Indeed, looking at the threat now, a lot of us ARE Star Ambassadors
Come, join the carnage!

Would be nice. I think there's a big difference between guaranteed consistent play and guaranteed consistent AND talkative play. The latter tends to make for much higher quality games, as you'd expect.

I came here to double false(?)-un(?)advertise:

"Tired of walking the streets with your head up in the sky, spitting on everyone lower than yourselves? Those Pesky "non-star, only Ambassadors"? And don't even get me started on those common diplomats... Join the league, Star Ambassadors! It's the elite group of people who are ALMOST as good as you are!

Well, it sure looks like Star Ambassadors are interested in this idea!

Getting classicists games setup has been pretty challenging lately, and generally any game that requires a password takes longer to fill. Joining a game is easier for users if they don't have to look at the forum for a password!

Regarding PDL 2020, I was debating but you convinced me V! I expect to have a busy Spring, but I let that be known in my application for the league, hopefully they'll be able to accommodate it. And I still remember with nostalgia the game you and I recently played together, not because I soloed, but because I really enjoyed the communication with you!

Definitely interested in seeing these start. I love chatty games!

You're more than welcome to organize a password protected Star Ambassadors only game via the forum.
