Attention MICHIGAN Players!! Lets play a game in the mitten.

[Dank]

When were you thinking of starting this game?......and what rules?

[SlowwHand]

How are y'all going to play in mittens? I know it's cold a lot there, but mittens don't have any fingers, do they?
Wouldn't it be better to wear gloves?

[Dank]

At least our sheep aren't as nervous as your Texan ones.........lol

[SlowwHand]

That's Arkansas. Texas is Longhorn country.

Well we'll get started once we get a good commitment from everyone. Saturday is probably the best time. Still haven't heard anything from Strat. Lets just pick a date, and see how it goes. June 29th, 4 PM.

As for rules and such we better vote.

1. Accept June 29th, 4 PM
Works for me

2. Bribing

I say anything goes. But i'm open to no city bribe and I would prefer city bribe only when the city is in revolt.

3. Barbs

I don't care.

4. Difficulty

Emperor I think is a good compromise between King and Diety. I vote emperor, but I'll go with majority rule.

5. 2x vs. 1x

I vote 1x1x, but accept majority rule.

6. Team game

I'm all for it, especially if Bud(dy) plays, so Holland can whoop you all.

7. Map

I have looked over the map, and I approve of the layout and starting positions.

8. Anything I'm forgetting?

Probably.

Ok, now everyone vote. Lets get this show on the road.

[Dank]

I play in a diplo game on Saturday that starts at 7:30 so earlier would be better for me.......or another day

[WarHawk]

Satuurday or sunday is good for me.. as for rules it dont matter. i'll play whatever we decide on...

1. I can only guarantee weeknites after 7:30pm. I usually have commitments on the weekends (wife and kids)

2. I vote no city bribe units OK.

3. I vote villages but really don't care

4. I vote Deity but really don't care.

5. I vote 1x1x, but will play 2x1x (count me out if it ends up 2x2x)

6. Team game - I vote no (count me out if it ends up teams).

7. Map seems fine. As for starting positions if someone has to move (i.e. bud or Ozzy) to make it a better game I say do that rather then force people into bad starts. But thats up to you guys - I am happy with my start (GO STATE).

8. Just so we don't have any misunderstandings or unnecessaary arguments, I would suggest RAH's rules for anything not specifically covered here.

Well there's my input.

[WarHawk]

well that would leave me out. cause i work weeknights 2nd shifter.. i have no idea what rah rules are i've never played with them.. so i guess i'm out

[Deity Dude]

hmm - how about sunday nite - that would probably work for me. As for RAH's rules there is a thread about them here in the MP forum. It's a way to have a default rule to fall back on if a debate/problem comes up. To tell you the truth I havn't even read the whole thread but the are pretty straightforward. (i.e. rushbuilding ok, no pressing w to stop a trirene from sinking st end of turn, blank square clicking ok, etc, etc, etc.)

Does Sunday nite work for you war - say 8:30pm.

[WarHawk]

yes anytime sunday would be fine with me

[OzzyKP]

Sunday evenings are out for me, sunday mornings I could do. I have meetings at 7 every other Sunday.

[Dank]

I could also do sunday mornings.......for maybe 3-4 hours...

[Deity Dude]

cant do sunday mornings - ill drop out of this one - im already in about 20 different games anyways

Hold up son, you are so eager to drop out. Just go with the flow and have a fun game with your fellow Michigan civers, we can work something out. Everyone needs to bend a bit, our reputations aren't on the line here, its just a game for fun.
