        Anyway, let me get this straight...

        -Four players
        -No AI
        -small map
        -pangea
        -70% water
        -restless barbs
        -slight modification to ensure no one gets a very bad start
        -all other settings random

        If that's right, I'll create four maps right away.
        With the minor change of the map size, this looks good...

        ... When will these maps be ready?

        Who'll start the different games? The first player for each game (as in the playing list)?

          We have some choices:

          1) Oct sends World seed number to first player and he uses that to start game (only if no modding of resource's took place).

          2) Oct plays every players first turn by simply skipping everyones first turn. He can set passwords if all players PM him a password.

          3) First Player is allowed to become "admin" for that game and sets admin password himself. The game would have to be loaded under the "Scenario" section and he would see a preview of the map.

          4) Not sure

            1) Sounds good. Resource modding was never discussed I think.

            2) That´s a fair option, too.

            • I should have said "any mods to do with player locations or resource placement" instead of what I stated. The World seed number only produces the map(resources and all) and does not place Civ's. Since Oct will have to check to make sure all starts are equal, option 1 won't work

              • Option 2 is really the only way to do this.

                • Looking forward to this...

                  Edit: Option 2 does look like a good idea

                  • Option 2, with little changes in the Scenario Properties:

                    - Set "Start Date" to 4050 BC
                    - In the Time scale setting, change the "First" option from 25 to 26 turns
                    - Check the "Time Limit" checkbox
                    - Set the the "Turns" setting in the "Time Options" to 541

                    This way we start as usual 4000BC. The last 2 steps are only for the sake of completeness, the games will hardly last till 2050AD.

                          I too am curious. I was thinking that the game might end up being random civs, but if not, then I'm OK with that too.

                          • I would prefer Random Civs...
