	Bogor's pbem reg game Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Hi, I'm new to Apolyton forums but experienced at pbem. Would like to start a C3C pbem, details to be negotiated. Probably max 6 players to keep things moving.
Cheers, Bogor.

Thanx for posting Paddy. Do you want huge map so war doesn't start to early? If you like we could have no war till 2000bc or whatever & a large or std map.

As for victory conditions, I would prefer all off, it's good to battle it out to the end. Also a rule I'd like is no picket fences, ie no lining the shores of an island with units so nothing can land. Also would prefer Continents but random ok if that's what majority want.

I just like huge maps is all

yeah, turn the victory conditions off

I like your no picket fences idea

Continents sounds great

Pfft. Are you -always- the Celts?

I call Maya, with France for second, in case our host wanted them ^^

to no picket fences/early rushes (kekeke 2v2 Zerg no rush! ^_^ V - *ahem* Sorry had to get that out of my system...)

Continets are kewl too - I'm fond of wet climate and also warm/temperate - but if enough people want random, I can do that

Hey, I'll join.

I'd prefer standard map...

And random civs.

OK, that's 4 so far, and lots too debate. I'm not in favour of random civs.
To help keep the game flowing I'll need all your preferred playing times in EDT, so the turns can roll around the world. Must be in EDT, I don't want to have to try to convert them.

I think I'll pick Russia. Although I may change my mind b4 kick off.

Hey guys, count me in. My choice of civ's would be Mayan but if that's taken I'll have to take another look. I'm from Sydney Australia which is at GMT +10. I have no idea what EDT stands for - can someone please explain and/or convert the time diff for me.

Anyone up for playing accelerated prod/groth?? Makes PBEM's get off the ground a lot faster.

I'm in Melb, we are 14 hrs ahead of EDT, but what I need to know, as what was asked, is what times you can play. AP is cool but I'd definitely want a no war period then so all players have an equal chance to develop, also some of us might want to rethink their civ choice if we went that way. I would prefer non AP for this game. I thought for my next pbem I'd make it a QC game. Maya is taken by Makahlua.

OK, if everyone can post their details & prerferences I'll start this in the next couple of days whether we get 1 more or not.

	Put an end to popups!

I Usually play my PBEM's about 5-6pm Sydney time although on Mon-Tue I don't get home until about 8-9pm.

Hi, I'd like to play too.
As it seems we are going to play to the end, I'll give another try to Germans. Continents are good for me. All the rest is indifferent.
I am on GMT+1. Now on July-August I am free since 16:00, but looking for the rest of the year, I use to play between 20:30 to 23:30.

	18-07-2004 05:54									#12
	Suffering from ads?

OK, we got our 6, now I just need playing times in EDT (not GMT). This is very important as getting the order of play right will ensure turns are done faster.

So setup will be

No victory conditions
Continents
Restless Barbs
Std map
SGl's on
Cultural Conversions on
Monarch
rest is random.

Special rules

No war until 2000bc
No picket fences
1.22 Conquests to be used

If you want playing time in EDT you might want to elaborate on what this stands for.

	Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

You're fine Rowan as you're in the same time zone as me, I just need all the others to post in 1 std zone so that I don't make any mistakes. Anyone else who insists on posting in other zones please convert that into EDT(Eastern Daylight Time) and post that too.

This is very important. I've gotten it wrong before & it's caused all kinds of delays to the game, I just want to get it right so that we can have nice swift turns!

Then if I'm not wrong, I use to play from 15:30 to 18:30 EDT

Like I said I'm new to Apolyton, I had no idea what time format was mostly used, I used EDT as it's what's used in the other place I play.

So Paddy do you play your turns in the evenings?
Makahlua & Vovan I need your playing times.
Vovan & Rowick I need your civ choice unless you're gonna go random.

Yes I like to play between 7pm and 11pm our time

	Increase Your PM Length

Playing times is noon - 3pm, and 8pm - 10pm EST. Or EDT, whichever it is on the east coast nowadays.

As far as a civ is concerned, I haven't played many different civs yet, so whichever is fine by me. So, random suits me fine.

So Bogor, when do we start?

Have you thought of a name for the game? Something to stand out in the slightly crowded PBEM Forum

Another popular theme is that once we are to start the game, then a new Thread is created in the Game Name. In the new Thread you place the players and their civs in turn order. Along with the various details that make up the game

ahh it is all good

my game email address is pirate at vtown dot com.au

	20-07-2004 09:31									#24
	Full PM-box? Change here!

Turn order will be

CrudeDirk
Rowick
Paddy
Makahlua
Vovan
Zord

I'll create a new thread called 'Bogor to the Slaughter!' and post all that is relevant in there.

Turn will be sent within a few minutes.
