I'd be interested.
Pangaea is easiest for making contact with other civs but curraghs probably make continents viable in C3C.
Best not to have any AI's - too easy to beat up and the player who starts next to an AI usually has an advantage.
Monarch difficulty is reasonable in terms of tech rate and unhappy citizens.
4 players on a small map or 6 on a standard.

GMT
Usually play around 1800 to 2200
Random civ
Give it another day or two to see if we can get another couple of players, if not then go on a small map with the 4 of us.
If we can keep up one turn a day that is pretty good. Most of my PBEM's aren't managing that!

Looks OK.
I would prefer no AI's but am not insisting on that.

woohoo... this is going to be great 
if chrisius can play before cerberus (so finishing the turns by 8pm), it _could_ work.
paddy, you've got a bigger gap if you play before ricketyclik, but i don't know what time that would be in your time zone.
ChrisiusMaximus, so far, everyone has chosen random civ. but if you prefer picking a definitive civ, it's up to you ... but then there's no restarting, if your agricultural civ starts in an arid region of the world 
1.15 is the current public (beta) patch. the next patch should be coming out this week but it could take longer... how about we wait until sunday, trying to agree on general stuff, and if the patch is out by then, we'll take it, otherwise 1.15?

One Turn per day would be a great speed. I agree CerberusIV, most PBEM's stall and lose speed... Yet this looks like a good and reliable crew... will be a shame to have to make vassal states out of your civ's,,,  but these things happen 
--- --- ---
I would like to play prior to ricketyclik. I am online before him each day, and this way the save can be ready for him, and may assist us all in getting that elusive extra turn in some nights...
Also, I am open to set session times where we can knock over a heap of turns. This has worked very well in some other PBEM's that I am in. To assist in this I have MSN Messenger, just use my email address; and ICQ, click on the link under my name etc.
My family request 13:30 and 14:30 GMT off monday to friday... and that I get some sleep time etc  , apart from that I am here, with one PC for the game, and another for work... a fair bit of the day / night..  my family label my work room 'A Dwarven Civ Centre...' not sure why really...!
--- --- ---
Is it alright to request a Civ?
--- --- ---
It would be good to start this PBEM with the New wonder patch... God bless FireAxis that they get this one right 
--- --- ---
If someone is really upset with their start position, I am happy to restart. Could this be brought to everyones attention very quickly.

can this work with 2 oceanians, 3 europeans and one western north american? time distance between the groups: 9hours, 9 hours, 5 hours.

possibilities:
a) no restart
b) restart in the first year (after placing the city)
c) restart within 10 turns (when borders expand)
d) restart if 3 or more players request it
i'd vote for a) and d)
ok, gotta get my lunch...

Not sure about set times, maybe one or two sessions at a weekend but...
I just downloaded 1.15 (at last) and am inclined to start with that and upgrade to the official patch when it comes out. It should be soon so we won't have got beyond our first cities anyway.
I am OK with a random civ but if we are picking then I would go for the Sumerians.
Restarting is a last resort. If we are going to allow it I would say within the first 10 turns and you post a screenie to prove how bad it is then it is a majority vote.
