Beyond the Pit [Pitboss Diplomacy Game] [Organization Thread]

[Robert]

This game started June 3rd.
The first voting round will start July 3rd, I suggest. (1 per month)

I'll setup a vote account and give you guys more information about the voting asap.

[OzzyKP]

I will be gone from July 3 till July 13 and unable to do my turns.

Can someone sub for me?

[Pitboss Vikings]

What the heck are voting rounds !

[Pitboss Persia]

Same thing here. I'll be gone from 2nd to 11th of july included. I'd be happy if someone could do my turns for me. I can give precise instructions via PM, so if someone could please healp me out, i'd be gratefull.

BTW : Great story post Ozzy.

Edit : I will still be joinable by mail and be able to vote.

Rounds in which we vote for our top 3 story teller, diplomatic player and top military strategy player.

It's a way to secure that not only the player with the most points will be able to win.

We still have to figure out how we will determine a winner. Maybe we should do it now. I'd say: keep it simple:

We get 4 lists:
- scorelist
- best storyteller list
- best diplomatic player list
- best military strategy list

We add the positions of the 4 lists together, the player with the fewest points wins.

ie:

scorelist:
1. Zulu
2. mongolian
3. dutch
4. china

storyteller:
1. china
2. mongolian
3. zulu
4. dutch

diplomatic:
1. mongolian
2. dutch
3. china
4. zulu

military:
1. dutch
2. china
3. mongolian
4. zulu

total:
zulu: 13 points
mongolian: 8 points
dutch: 13 points
china: 10 points

Mongolia wins.

Wo wins the non-score lists depends on the votes (obviously).

[Robert]

Only 8 more turns till we revert back to a 24 hour timer.

I wouldn't have a problem to extend the 8 hours/turn period timer a tad bit longer though. (thus get another 50 8 hour/turn turns)

[Rasputin]

i vote for extending the 8hr turn timer i happy with it at present, midweek i only get to play once per day but weekends i finding i can two or three in per day so not too bad.

if situations change such as war breaks out may change things.

[Toni]

My understanding was that we will play 8hr turns till 100!!! not 75, the 75 was only added later on by CyberShy.


And yes I like Ras and CS would prefer to see some more 8hr turns. If some are unhappy after the 100 with that we may try to find a mid point to fit all players.


Also I can help sub for Ozzy and Persia, so send your instructions to my PM please if you need my help.

sounds like a reaosnable start when do we vote.

[Pitboss Japan]

i like the way the timer is now so extending it is fine with me.

Thanks.

The saga of the Metalheads has begun.

[Pinchak]

I am fine with extending 8hr turns until turn 100.

Also, regarding tech trade reporting, I think it would make sense to start a seperate thread for reporting.

Everytime you trade a tech you post to that thread. This would make it very easy to track how many trades a civ has done.

[Pitboss Rome]

I would prefer we switch to the one turn per day on turn 75.

[Pitboss Rome]

Also what is up with people posting with their normal accounts?

[Pitboss Persia]

Since i wont be there for a week, obviously my vote goes to 24h/turn right now. If we do this, i wouldn't even need a sub.
