Restart our Democracy game?

[GhengisFarb™]

I have no problem using the DYP mod, is there a list of the mod changes somewhere?

Alright, I'm adding you to the list. We would wait for the initial auction until we had enough tiles for everyone to have one. OR we could mod it so that each civ started with 3 settlers and 3 workers to speed it up a bit. Personally, I would have no problem with playing quite a few turns on a weekend turnchat to get up to the point where we could auction off tiles.

Another thing. Settlers should be like Merchant Colonies. They have nine shares (1 tile in the initial radius for each share holder) and we would auction off the shares when we create the settler.

I'd go for a DYP $minigame

Why is everyone from GoW signing up?

My only issue with DyP is that they have added a heck of lot more resources and the graphics aren't as good as the orginal ones.

If you go to the site mentioned in the scenerio description you can down load the new graphics. The City view screen, however is harcoded and can't be changed....

I say we should do a DyP Demo Game, on a smaller map and with less civs so it wouldn't take so long for each turn. It would also have the $Minigame.

Of course, any game we start (or even continuing with the existing one) could have the $Minigame, and any one could have a different government structure - those are separate issues. All we are dealing with here is whether to change from what we have or not.

[Panzer32]

yes, change.

[Kloreep]

Change!

I have some concerns about utilizing both DyP and the $MiniGame. First we would have to revamp the $MiniGame to fit DyP, as certain buildings and business do not become available until specific advances have been researched, none of this "Fanaticans building computers in 4000 bc when all they know is rock chipping".

Second, I think we would be commiting the same error I feel we did in this Democracy game. In this one we upped the difficulty level and added a lot more civs. I think we should have done one or the other but not both. Yes it is challenging, but there are a lot of people out there that find Regent level challenging. And while they may learn to improve their playing, it gives them less opportunity to participate as many of the dilemas we face may be over their head or out of their playing level.

I would suggest we determine to play the game after this with DyP allowing everyone to play on their own and become more familiar with the rule set for that game and start the one now with the normal rule set and the $MiniGame.

Whatever you do, keep the Democracy Game separated from any Mini-Game or other spinoff.

Also, realize that we'll want to draw new players to this game. I'm not sure if using the DyP mod will accomplish this.

I'll be glad to help making a new map. But... did you uncover all the tricky bits from the first one yet? Don't think so! (if not - we'll put them in the next one again).

ok, minigame without DYP

Why? You're not even going to play the Democracy game. You said you didn't want to do it but would rather make a map for it.

[BigFurryMonster]

What I meant is: keep the MiniMap Game out of the decision whether and how to restart the Demo Game.

Thanks for pointing that out.

As I understand it, this poll has nothing at all to do with the minigame, except that the current minigame would almost certainly stop if the current game stops.

The minigame starting separately has nothing at all to do with this poll.
