    I am easy with any settings the majority thinks best.

      How about a regular or large size stringy pangaea type of map?


      Or - along the same lines, we pick civs for each other. The old "Misfits" theme, where you assign your randomly picked opponent with what you think is a weak civ.
      Interesting.

      I am easy with whatever.

        As I was last on the list I will drop out. Seven players are too many for a pbem, especially if it is Skyriders first pbem game. Best to have a faster flowing game so he gets maximum enjoyment out of it........

        Cheers though, I'm always interested in pbems, just slow on the uptake......

          I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody's life, my life. All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die.

              Beta
              Nugog
              Rob

              Which is probably too many for a pbem game? Is everyone still interested?
              Hi, Beta. Yes, I am still interested, and I would be available for a long-term game, provided the committment wouldn't be more than a turn or two per day on days where I am busy.

              My only question is what version are you all playing? I'm running vanilla 1.74, but I can upgrade if need be.

              As for the type of game, I will go with the majority, as this will be my first multiplayer experience. I like random settings, including map type and leaders, but it's not a huge issue with me.

              I'll be watching the posts to see if/when people are ready to go. Is this going to be PBEM or pitboss?

                I can play any version (C4, Warlords, BtS) so long as it is the latest patch.

                If I am to play it will need to be PBEM.

                    With a 6 player pbem, you will be lucky if it is a turn per week.

                    And if you are busy - no problem, you just wait a bit to play your turn and send it.

                    My only question is what version are you all playing? I'm running vanilla 1.74, but I can upgrade if need be.
                    Warlords possible?

                    Random would be good for a change.

                    I was assuming pbem as Nugog does not have the connection for pitboss because he goes and works in weird places.

                    So lets get this pbem up and running and then we can think about pitboss.

                    btw - EPW is looking to set up a 'city states' game. Check the thread in this forum.

                      Hey - just because I move to a third world country, where it is highly suspected they still eat people - no reason to call it wierd!

                        So - what will it be Sky? Do you want to stick with vanilla civ, or do you want to play warlords?

                        Waiting on you for an answer and then we will proceed.

                            Are we going to get this game going or not?

                              Will do tomorrow.

                              We should decide on the most efficient play order - again going east to west.

                                How about:

                                Beta
                                Hercules

                                Skyrider
                                Nugog
                                Geo

                                Herc - I am not sure of your location or your best on-line times. We may need to switch places.
