Dan Quick has graciously rectified my forum access problem, so you'll have to deal with me once again.
The missing portion of my message was: If you desperately wish to get started Friday, either choose another full-time player, or allow a sub to play for Spain. Unfortunately, I have work that I must do, so I am unable to devote the necessary time tomorrow.
If you choose to use a sub, I'll dive in next week. If you want another permanent player, I can wait 'til the next game. I've been patient this far.
Sorry for the inconvenience, folks, but from perusing the MP forums, this kind of thing happens a lot.

I disagree. As the map stands, France is undoubtedly in the best position, and you should be looking for more of a challenge as the best player. Since you think I'm the one with the unfair start, why don't we trade civs? You can be Germany and I'll take France. Is that fair enough for you?
Yeah for emperor! See you all tommorrow

Gentlemen, a moment of your time please.
Okay? Right, I know it's been said before
The fact of the matter is that diplogames are not the same as a 2x 2x MP quickie. It's going to take time, bruised ego's, aggrevation, technical difficulties and a LOT of dedication. If you plan to participate in a diplogame you must plan to set a day in your agenda and inform the rest if you won't be able to make it in the upcoming week.
These games last months, you can't handle this offhand. Get organized!
In the end it's worth it, completing a diplogame actually is a worthwhile experience.
P.S
I like the European map, does it use ocean squares as real rivers or the standard river ones?

Since everyone is whining about how they don't know if they can play unless its all set up, and about the hardships of a Diplogame lemme tell you how this is going to work...
Deity you understand me here cuz we've been through HOTW, the best Diplogame ever IMHO but its had snags like every other diplogame.
The first issue is the map, the map we are using is the map I put up. It is the most accurate map of Europe, it is the best map of Europe in existance. There can be no arguments here because it just is, Jesus Munoz or Balisade or whatever made this map and they did a damn good job. So this is the one we are using.
Starting positions. Here's how its going to be, regardless of your b*tching and moaning. You pick your damn nation, Great Britain, France, Germany, Luxembourg, Kosovo, Turkey whatever and that's what you are going to get. I hate people who like to just play far apart simply because of that, pick a nation you know about, pick a nation you are going to have fun with, pick a nation with a personality you like and with names and customs you are familiar with. The personal touch will make all the difference in roleplaying, in representation and in interest. Trust me, I know what I'm talking about.
As for the wonders and that jazz, we are keeping it in, I am goin to make an awesome modpack for this game. You guys may disagree with what I am going to say, you may not like the way the modpack turns out on paper, you may even say "This is retarded, Capo is a moron" but believe me my friends, this will be the greatest European modpack the world has ever seen. When you play the game everything will work so perfectly you will think I am some kind of zen master of Civ. Deity vouch for me amigo.
As far as I am concerned there are THREE people in this game, there is Capo, Deity and CyberShy our Dutch founder and all around good guy. I am whiping the board clean and making an entirely new scenario that you guys are going to love, you may dislike it initially but you are going to be on my jock trust me. Four more people must sign up for the job, I know four are interested but I want this to be settled again seperately. Capo is Italy. Cybershy is Greece and Deity is Great Britain. I need four other European nations, real European nations, past present, congolomrations (Iberian Federation, Scandinavian Union etc) as long as they make historic sense.
We are going to play this coming Saturday, the modpack will be completed Thursday for review.
Any and all suggestions will be taken into serious consideration, the final will be released Friday, which is the next day. Everyone that is playing will download it. Saturday we will convene to play this game at a time that has yet to be announced.
I hope that clears everything up, I am the Capo, this is what I do, deal with it.
Peace.
