Since no one spoke up, I assume that everyone has an okay start. I did realize that accellerated production is not on. If anyone has a problem with that, I'll start over ASAP. I know Kermit wanted it. Let me know before the start of the third round if we need to start over with accellerated production on.

I really want to start over again i have to reasons for this:
1) No acc prod.
2) My starting location was in the middle of a dessert with a oasis enough to make a lvl 3 city... and not higher.

No problem. I will restart the game again tonight when I get home from work. I think I'll start 3 games and we'll vote on starting positions.

Some people have trouble getting into 'poly. For instance my access from work is PAINFULLY slow. It is easier for me to get at the saves through email. And Kermit is in Europe, so his access may be slower.

Oh, so it's more of a convenience issue then. I'd thought it had something to do with security from cheating, maybe, or some such.

I've sent 3 different games on to Gamecube64. Everyone play all three games through the first, lets say 3 rounds. That way you have the chance to explore your surroundings a bit and possibly start a second city. After 3 rounds (end of 3850BC) we'll vote our preferences (1-2-or-3) and pick the one with the best score.

so . . .
Let the games begin!


Again!

Game 2 = okay
Game 3 = Awsome

Let's play 1 more round, just to see what we can get at with our second settler.

Kermit,
Looks like game 2 is the consensus, except that you didn't mention it. Is it okay for you?

Okay everybody. Let's try this. Don't rank the games by better, best, worst. Rank them like this:

Bad = 0
Okay = 1
Good = 2
'Best Start Ever" = 4

Be sure to rank all three games. We'll see how they stack up. If the one with the highest score turns out to be a terrible start for one person, we should consider trying again. We could change the settings to temperate and 5 billion years, to remove some of the mountains and jungle/marsh.

My rankings are

Game1: 0 points
Game2: 1 point
Game3: 2 points

I'm sick of playing 4000BC. I'm sick of waiting for the magic start that will win the game for you. Perhaps a random map is not the answer. If you restart, leave me out.

I'm not trying to create a "magic start" that will win the game for me. Considering that this game will take over a year to complete if we play all the way through, I would think that nobody wants a bad start. PBEM games take patience. I don't intend on restarting at the moment. It's just a last resort. But don't worry. If we restart. We will leave you out.
