Looking to start a new game... Get a bigger avatar today!

If I can find enough people, I'm looking to start a new PBEM with either 4 humans and three AIs, or a 3x2 and 1 AI. And of course, looking for a CMN for the game.... preferrably intermediate to advanced players.... any takers?

So ve are 3?

For Mart7x5: SMAX is not a problem, get it here: http://smac.2be.cc

Should we wait for one more?
I suggest - yes!

By that time, please post your faction choice, map prefs and game prefs:

Mine:
Faction: Lemme think a bit more
Map: Huge, Wet, Low natives, Low erosion, 30-50%
Prefs: all victories, look first, randomised AI (last 2 checks, more interesting!)

Well, then we're 4 and complete:

Groron: Cult/Drones
binTravkin: ???
Mart7x5: ???
Ouro_827: ???

Please post the faction, map and game preferences!
Also, if Ouro_827 agrees, we should vote for AI factions - each of us chooses 3 factions for AI and then after we all choose our factions, the 3 AIs are made up from our AI prefs - which AI has the most votes is in the list, and remeber - Ouro_827 always says the final word!

Full PM-box? Change here!

Faction: Data Angels/University/Believers

AI factions: Hive/Believers/University/PK

code:
Preference | Settings Map size | Custom 50x100 Ocean | 50-70 Erosion | Average Life | Average Clouds | Dense Difficulty | Transc. Transcend | Yes Diplomatic | Yes Economic | Yes Cooperative | Yes Do or Die | No Flexible start | Yes Tech stag | Yes Spoils of war | Yes Blind research | No Intense riv | Yes No survey | Yes No scatter | No No rnd events | Yes Time Warp | No Iron man | No Rand person | Yes Rand social | Yes

World: custom 50x100 (Large is a bit too small, and Huge is too huge )
Possible very diverse map...

spoils of war - on
no look - yes
do or die - no - but Ouro, as you wish. For roleplaying that might be maybe more interesting if factions wouldn't die quickly
Tech stagnation - longer game maybe, but more interesting eras.

I just usually play with do or die... in this game, shouldn't matter much... tech stag - been experimenting with, don't care....
flex start - never used before, but I guess, if you actually use it...
spoils - this I object to, if the cyborgs are in the game. It is unfair to them, just like blind research off with aliens...

I guess, It'd be nice if Mart7x5 made such a coded table for all the players, plus the breakdown at the last column!

I dunno how to do it - but will see vb help soon to learn it!

Things that should be included:

Fac order for each of us
AI factions for each of us
Map settings
Game settings

I write it in notepad using "Tab" key for allign of words in columns, and "|" symbol for separating columns. Enclosing this text copied from notepad in "code" allows those tabs to remain unchanged, otherwise they are replaced to spaces, what destroys allignment. You could do it too, just copy the text from the post to notepad or wordpad.

Put an end to popups!

It might be important. You Groron wish to play Drones? In english version Cult is referred to Cult of Planet, as far as I know. Maybe to avoid misunderstandings Cult might be changed to Drones in the table?

Please disregard then, my mistake....

I am still here, but will also be OOT for the weekend. And Ouro_827 is right: if you have a password preference, either PM me or send me an E-Mail at ababdnandal@twcny.rr.comabab minus the a's and b's. Also, anyone got an idea what to name this game?

xman1975: you could try to start an MP game yourself, and ask for players of your experience level and a game master.

Or if a replacement is asked somewhere (happens now and then), volunteer then.

Thanx for doing that for me, binTravkin!

I am starting the map now and should be done tonight. btw is anyone interested in the AI's building Probe Cruisers upon discovery of Doc: Init? Also, does anyone want the AI's to build non-standard units? Also, did anyone think up a name for the turn tracknig thread?
