here's what kh2 wrote in the email:
hi all,
Well I haven't moderate that many games so my skills still needs to be "polished". As I wrote before if you guys want I could remake the game. However I like to adress so some of the points mentioned.
Everything is random so not getting stuff and getting stuff really is totally up to fate.
You can all change your name and gender and whatever by yourself (just go to the faction profile in "datalinks"). It would take me forever to change gender and name on 7 faction while still someone wouldn't be satisfied. If you do it yourself it takes 2 minutes.
When you played PBEM awhile you most certainly would have 10, 15 or even 20 PBEM going at same time. Starting up with faulty setup (no tech, too many colony pods, too few scouts, no rover, etc) actually would seem like a refresehment. If you want scouts, build them! If you want tech, find the other players!
Anyway, last night was my only free night for awhile (2 weeks), so remaking a map would have to wait till sometimes next weekend. If you wanna keep me as moderator you'll have to wait till then. That would give you more time to discuss over more details. Mail them to me whenever you're ready.
best regards

personally, since we're all starting off on the same foot. i suggest we just play the game as is, and change our own name's in the datalinks(didn't know we could do that).
sure, the game's different and random and stuff, but that was pretty much the point from the beginning.

Actually,
Menu>network>customize your faction allows the name changes to faction, etc. Takes less than a minute.
There is a hotkey, I think, but I cannot recall it.

considering most people's opinion on native life is conditional, i.e. i want abundant only if i'm gaian, but otherwise, average. i say it's best left on average.
i'm not quite sure about the player eliminated bug, but is it when a human player eliminates another human player, the game crashes? because if that's the case, we were able to get around that in an smacx game i had. basically, instead of completely killing off a human player, instead, you take him/her down to one base left, and leave one unit in that base, then that person simply obliderates his/her own base. committing suicide, so the game won't crash.

I suggest we keep the factions the same too, to simplify things.

personally, i love the change of pace of playing a different faction than what i'm used to. i kept playing the hive so long, i forgot just how powerful the university is with their research.
