	Foreign Ministry: Sell our start map? Increase the size of your Attachments

I was just wondering if people would support selling the image of our starting map to anyone. Of course, since we haven't met ingame yet, we would have to go on a promise... Then of course, if they break their promise ...

I'm not sure if it is a good idea, or if it is in the spirit of the game. Just tossing the idea out to anyone (especially Unortho) who has an opinion on this subject.

I would say only trade for a like map, our world for their world, etc.

Trying to get more map from them with less map from us.

Can we capture Demogyptica's scouts?

On second thought.... maybe we shouldn't alter it. I mean we are going to be mercs. There is going to be a lot of trust involved from teams that contract us. If we continuly try to deceive teams, then we will find our contracts few and far between.

Lets just hold onto our map for now.

I can do it, I think.

But maybe Donegeal is right...

OK: the plan - We edit the map, but with nothing they can prove later: like editing out the worker, changing the city size to two, blacking out the squares it discovered, and changing the city's build. This way, no one will be able to find out that it was tampered with...

The question in my mind, is what are we asking for in return? I can really see no benefit of selling this right NOW, for we could expect that any maps we did recieve in return would likely be altered.

Let's go with the original joke that we started on a one tile desert island surrounded by water.

Make a fake map with us in the middle of the minimap and post it for free in the main forum. If they actually believe that is where we started so be it.

YES!!!! Does PTW have the same graphics as Civ III? If it does, I can make the map.

I got it! I'll post it in the main forum. It would be so hilarious if anyone actually thought this was our start position!!!! We would be sure to win

OK, just so everyone is clear, we don't want to say we want a restart. Our real starting position is great. Absolutly no restarting. Also, if there was a restart, when the news came that this was a hoax, we would be shunned and my career as a diplomat would be over.
