No, I think we decided against AP. Personally I'm against it. I support Dominae setup fully.

When do we start? I hope soon.

Increase Your PM Length

We start as soon as Dom finishes the map et al... The first turn or so we won't be as anal about time, as people figure out how they operate and how the team works etc. etc. I say 3900bc is the first turn we start skipping turns.

Godking, 1889 can now directly sign you up - I don't need to make a list anymore, just apply for the civgroup, as I see you have already. This goes for everyone else as well - the civgroups tell you who's in what team now.

AP is definitely off. As much as I and Paddy would like it on.

I've been thinking about this, I think there needs to be a bit of slack for the first 5-10 turns so that teams can get into a rhythm and sort out who's playing the saves etc. Also I'd be concerned about being too draconian in turn skipping as it could upset people or make the game less fun or even burdensome. Although realistically there is a balance to be found in terms of moving the game along.
If a team sends an email or other message within the 12 hours saying they can't play the turn in time then they should be ok for an extension up to 24hrs IMO.
Also it might be better to just give a team a warning in a first instance of not playing within the 12 hours then skip if subsequent turns aren't played in time.
Overall speed of play and timezones will also have to be considered, I suppose we'll see how things develop...

What do you think?

It is the responsability of team captains to get a the turn sent on within the 12 hours or to delegate that responsability. I am willing to endure a few odd hours to give my team time to post their opinions. (I will need the input )

Going easy on the time limit now will only make it harder to enforce later on.

I think the first few turns will get confusing if there's not a bit of slack; not every one of us has done this before, and not every one of us is perfectly organized.

That said, I think after the first few turns we should get our acts together. And after all how many people have something to do on year 3900?

Some slack the first few turns is a good idea, the first turn in particular. People may want to discuss the first crucial settler movements in detail.

Speed up at turn 5 perhaps? We should be organized by then.

Tired of ads?

Please also visit the poll on who should be the C3CDG Forum Mod - not the private forums, just the main forum. IE the person who stickies threads and whatnot.

UnO is the choice of some of us who talked about it at the time of this forum's creation, but he has apparently some computer problems, so we wanted to see if you all think that we should assign him anywho, especially not being able to ask him, or if OPD or myself or someone else should do this.

This is NOT related to the game directly - just the ability to sticky/unsticky threads, etc.

Ready!

Euphorica should be getting the save anytime now. Could each team make sure that everything is all right on their first turn (i.e. number of Settlers/Workers/Warriors, tech costs, names, etc.)? It would be best to identify such mistakes early, so that I can just correct them without having to change maps.

Thanks, and ENJOY!

ok easy click here

look at the various teams

then approach that civ and discuss with them on who you are and why you would like to join etc

each team has their own public thread that may be worth visiting

all pretty easy

oh, and have fun
