Civ 3: PTW Democracy Game II

[GhengisFarb™]

The soldier is supposed to be a genetically engineerer super soldier in the spirit of Games Workshop's Warhammer 40k Space Marines.

Is their any interest in forming up the Simpson's team we tried to do early on?

Dibs on Hank Scorpio.

I volunteer to set up the map/scenario, including any of the changes that participants will agree on (bananas are apparently a must). I'm not so good with art though...someone would have to help me with that. I have set up a few AU games, and know my way around the Editor.

I could also double as Historian.

I would like to be involved, but do not want to join (yet another) team, for time reasons. I feel guilty enough as it is not putting in as much effort into GS and ISDG as some other dedicated posters.

I'm sure a Simpsons team could foster some sort of support. They wanted to start one back during the creation of the first PTW DG.

Dominae: that would be great.

Before I get back to the issue at hand I'd better clear something up first:

I was wrong to disrespect an entire team for the actions and attidute of a few of its members. I would hate to see my RP team judged due to my actions or statements, and it was foolish of me to do the same to Gathering Storm.

Through conversations I've had with several people outside of GS, I've heard great personal praise about many of the people on the team, and through the posts in this thread it's clear to me that very many of the GS crowd are interested in sharing in a fun, less serious team game with the rest of the Poly Public. And that really makes me feel a lot better about things.

I think what sparked my indignation was the idea of a whole team separating itself socially from the rest of the Poly "community." That isn't the case, so I can rest my offense and get back to just focusing on the game at hand.

I'm very glad to see Team Sunshine picking up steam. I tossed out a few ideas to get the ball rolling and hoped that they would stimulate conversation and either be adopted or get other themes proposed. I hope that MasterZen takes the idea and runs with it, and I'll definately help keep it fun and funny.

Can people who are interested in this "side game" start proposing other theme ideas? Hopefully we can settle on the 5 best ideas sometime in the near future.

Heck, if we're getting silly we may as well go all the way. Open it up for mods and other twists ... maybe even use Kings and Victory Locations.

Oh, and Dominae as mapmaking/historian is a great idea. This new game seems to be coming along very well, indeed.

Well, I for one am glad that Team Sunshine is picking up followers from around the land

It seems that people have found out the only way to win is by peace and love, baby



but still, even though I am a firm believer in peace and sunshiness forever, a few more team ideas would be wanted... after all we can't have just one team right?

have a nice sunshine day

I'll join. Not played a DG game before, but that's because they always seem to be in full flow by the time I find out.


How about the Muhammed Saeed al-Sahaf team?

Members of this team's posts must always be blatantly obvious falsehoods, and must be done with all seriousness.


Our team is not attacking Sunshine.

What do you mean not attacking us? You just threw a "Mammoth Stack of Shivering Workers" at our Pikeman.

They were bonding.

I second that notion, and would join the team!

ACK!

don't you mean "Shibering" workers??

[Tiberius]

Damn, these themed teams sound so fun. I'm tempted to join, despite my limited time. There should be always time for fun

[Theseus]

Tube shows up!!!!

Now we're cooking with GAS!!!

Oh, um, err...

Peace and love to all!!

The new game should have some tighter turn control.

eg..you get 7 hours to sleep, and 5 hours to play only.

Penalties should be applied for any team who doesnt forward the game on before their time limit.

Penalties could be simple gold payments to all the other teams..Maybe 1g per hour per team in the ancient age.

Perhaps time can be a commodity ... a team who can process their games quickly, can build up hours that they can sell to other teams.

Any team that finds itself in a war can have an emergency 24 hour turn...but any extensions of time after than must be paid for by penalties to all teams..or by pruchasing time from other teams.

I have not put a lot of thought into this...just some general ideas. But it will force the game to move along at a good pace, and also force the teams to have multiple members that can play the game.

That's a pretty cool idea, Hot_Enamel. Some tweaking,,,and we got one of the rules for our game that makes it a bit 'different' than the other's. Sort of like those commercial's for "the other white meat."
