I'll take persia then.

I suck as well, FP, so maybe we can make some alliance, so we'll have a chance reaching the middle age...


And the map preferences are:

size-Small, continents, 80% land, random barbs, and all the rest average.

What abaout difficulty- does it always reset to regent?

Everyone okay with that?

What you mean is 80% water. No, make it 60% water please. Everything else is ok.

Maximum land = good.

Max land, since we will be playing on a small map, with plenty of ocean, it will be pretty crowded on land, dont you think?

having anything less than maximum land would make it even more crowded, surely.....

Any volunteers to set up the game? I can do it tonight (U.S. time) if no one else wants to, but I'll warn everyone that last time I tried, it misfired and we ended up with Chieftain happiness levels (thanks, presumably, to one of PtW's bugs).

Do we want to just start in a random order, or try to make some kind of attempt to coordinate the order around people's usual schedules?

exactly my point FP, SirRalph, are you still sure about thus? i would compromise for 70% if you insist, but surely not 60%...

Now, how do i start this thing, on tge PBEM setup screen, i have the option to set each player a nick and a civ, what do you want me to call you?

The settings are 60% water, 70% water, and 80% water, so the 60% setting is the highest amount of land.

oh right, silly me

I'd suggest to make the order according to the time zones, floating from east to west with the sun. That's the most efficient order for PBEM games. I am GMT + 1 here.

But it means, I'll probably get 2 different games posted from Conqueror (we both are playing in the GS PBEM 1 as well), so we should all agree to put a certain subject line, to know which email belongs to which game.

I'm GMT+2, What about FP, Nathan and Conqueror?

Conqueror is also GMT+2, FP is GMT, Nathan should be GMT-5.

I'd suggest the order Conqueror-Zeit-Sir Ralph-FP-Nathan in order to prevent confusions between Conqueror and me. Or if Zeit sets up the game, perhaps Zeit-Sir Ralph-FP-Nathan-Conqueror.

Actually, GMT-6 (U.S. Central time zone).

Edit: Like it really matters a whole lot; I'm the only one on my continent in the game.

Either of those is good, depending on who sets it up.

I'll set it up, so the order is: Zeit-Conqueror-SirRalph-FP-Nathan

Conqueror seems to be the only one who isn't here right now,
you think he'll agree to have those settings?

Hmmm, that means I get 2 different games from Conqueror. I have to be careful then not to mix up games.

That's on problem, Sir Ralph, i'll just push Conqueror two times "backwards" as you suggested, we can even start it right now, since we are all here besides Conqueror (if you think he'll be okay with that)

Final order:Zeit-SR-FP-Nathan-Conqueror
