	All Teams need to PUBLICLY FINALIZE their civ choice well before Dec. 1st... Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

The reason is simple:

If two teams that have not already publicly finalized their civ choice end up popping up at the last minute to pick the same civ choice, we'll need to DELAY THE GAME to resolve which one of them gets it (argh.... if you want all the other civs to want to kill you, do that ).

I propose that, INSTEAD, we ask all teams to PUBLICLY finalize their civ choice by at least several days before December 1st. Having it done by.... oh.... WEDNESDAY, would not be terribly unreasonable. Though many of us Americans will be out of town, I'm sure those of you who are around and have internet access between Thursday and Sunday and figure out via Rock-Paper-Scissors the resolution of any conflicts over which team gets a mutually-desired civ.

Any team that doesn't post their public choice by Wednesday (or some other given date/time), simply loses out on being able to compete with any other team for any picks made by that deadline. Pretty simple: You snooze, you lose.

Alternative, ALL civ choices could be (from this point forward) on a first come-first served basis. The first team to PUBLICY ANNOUNCE that they are taking a certain civ gets it... any other team that wants it can just whine and pout, but we arent listening (once again: you snooze, you lose).

What do people think about this?

I think it should be first come first serve.

(GoW may have a list of civs based on what will be available to us)

	Tired of ads?

Our poll about the civs will be finished 28th of Nov... lets hope that there will be no conflicts... the only thing i wanna say at the moment is that EGYPT is not the only leading civ in our poll...

Our first choice is Egypt. We have a second and third prepared. I think if people prefer us to be a peaceful neighbour, they will want us to have our first pick.

Depends on whether you play Iroquois very convincingly.

Lux Invicta has officially chosen the Ottomans.

We have no second choice, so don't even think about it.

ARGH! Would GoW stop beating around the bush and just confirm China! Or did you change your mind recently just to throw everyone off the track?

What's the point?

If no official civ is given when the game starts - just beware it will / should be done random.... again, you snooze, you loose.
