[Pitboss]Zoid's Random Extravaganza

Zoid · October 24, 2009, 10:09

I pick the difficulty for each civ when I set up a game. It's a stupid system, but then Pitboss is a half-assed MP attempt at best... I'll PM everybody about the scrapped game and ask if they want to participate in a restart.

Hercules · October 24, 2009, 10:25

Hmm I don't know why I am on Noble, if I am, but I'll accept the opinion of others.

The game seems to have an uneven spread of resources.

Black Knight 427 · October 24, 2009, 11:17

If the game is restarting I'm still in. but I would like to be able to pic my own civ this time.

Zoid · October 24, 2009, 13:13

I think we can arrange that

Robert Plomp · October 24, 2009, 13:16

I'm ok with continueing, but a restart wouldn't be that bad, my land is pretty bad. (almost no resources).
But I'm ok with continueing as well. Hercules being on noble is not that bad, I think.

Wittlich · October 24, 2009, 13:35

Lets go ahead and do a restart...oh, and count me in as well.

deity · October 24, 2009, 18:36

Ah, what a bummer guys

OK, count me in too but is there any chance we can have a bit of posting/diplomacy in the thread? The in-game diplo screen often shows no text.

Thanks for hosting efforts Zoid.

Hell why not just turn this puppy into a full fleged diplogame?

Zoid · October 25, 2009, 01:09

Let's keep it like a ordinary pitboss game. But I don't mind diplomacy in this thread

And the reason that the diplo box in-game is empty is because you need to press enter after you've written something...

Robert Plomp · October 25, 2009, 03:52

Please not another diplo game

Just normal pitboss is good enough for me. But I wouldn't mind 12h turns for the first 150 turns. Missing a turn in he early part of the game doesn't matter, and it won't make the start so tedious.

Zoid · October 25, 2009, 05:30

How about Advanced Start with 1200 points or so? That should clear away at least 30 turns right off the bat. With a 12 hour turn timer for another 50 or so?

Robert Plomp · October 25, 2009, 07:36

I dislike advanced starts, but if you guys want it I'm ok with it.

Wittlich · October 25, 2009, 11:41

I'm easy either way myself.

Black Knight 427 · October 25, 2009, 12:57

I could go for an advanced start as long as the timer is set to 10 rhs for the next 50 turns.

deity · October 25, 2009, 23:37

I'm easy...

Robert Plomp · October 27, 2009, 08:09

So, what's going to happen?

Zoid · October 27, 2009, 15:06

I'm setting up a new game with your choice of civs and map. Let's hear your choices

Pinchak · October 27, 2009, 18:29

count me in

Black Knight 427 · October 27, 2009, 19:07

For map I really don't care. And for civ choice ill go with either China or Japan don't care who the leader is.

deity · October 28, 2009, 04:13

Adv start is OK. I like Terra normal map/epic speed. Any civ that is creative will do... I'll check out the civpedia but don't don't hold back on getting this started.

Thx.

deity · October 28, 2009, 04:44

Pericles would be good.

Robert Plomp · October 28, 2009, 05:34

Mansa Musa was ok, let me just keep him.

mzprox · October 28, 2009, 06:48

Heya, if you are restarting and have a spot I'd join, but please do 12h (or 8) turns in the first 150. Civ I don't know yet, can be random.

Zoid · October 28, 2009, 11:47

Welcome mzprox

I'll try to set this up asap, but I'm down with a cold now so I'm a bit fuzzy.

Wittlich · October 28, 2009, 19:50

I am easy, just make my civ "random" and any game/map settings are fine by me.

Just checking on the status of the relaunch. I hope you are winning the battle with your cold Zoid.

Zoid · November 1, 2009, 15:50

Thanks Witt

My cold is nearly over, but I've started to feel a weariness for Civ in general and Pitboss in particular. Right now I don't want to host or play another game. I'm also starting culinary school tomorrow, this will undoubtedly take much of my time... Sorry guys...
