Welcome Theseus PBEM

[Beta]

And that is indeed the process I used.

And the results are:

1st to last choice:

MWIA
Beta
Theseus
Kloreep
Wittlich
conmcb25
Rhothaerill

My humble apologies to my good pals Rhoth and con (sounds like Star Trek movie I once saw), but that was the result of the die rolling.

And to recap - the civs you are choosing from are:

Greece, Rome, Carthage, Egypt, Babylon, Persia, Hittites.

Oh - and I guess one is seafaring.

I have also contacted SR to ask him to set up the game.

MonsieurOuEstLa, you are up.

Cool. Thanks for getting this ready to go Beta.

So Theseus - aren't pbems fun? This is all there is to it. We never really play any civ3. We just talk about it a lot, and respond to conmcb's trash talking.

Either Restless or Raging is fine with me. That all looks good.

He means the ability to trade world maps being moved from the map making tech to the printing press tech in Conquests.

At least that's what I think he means.

Yep.

My my... another interesting bloodbath that I'll miss

[conmcb25]

If MWIA does not pick within 2 hours he drops to second from last and I go to first on the list

Its an old house rule I just made up

I for one don't care which civ I get. I'll wipe the floor with you all with....well with whichever one is left over.

[Kloreep]

I suggest that once MWIA and then Beta have picked, we all PM our choices to Beta, with the appropriate number of alternate picks. So Theseus would just send Beta his choice, I'd send Beta my choice plus a #2 alternative, Wittlich would do his top 3, etc...

Ooooo... efficiency. What a concept. Good idea though.

[Wittlich]

Cool idea Kloreep!

We don't want to make Theseus think that he's made a fatal mistake by picking the "wrong" civ.

By the way, I am kidding Theseus.

Yep.

Let's see. My picks are...no wait that one will be taken. Okay my new pick are the...oh shoot, I guess I'll make that number two...oh wait a minute that's right...I'm LAST!

[Kloreep]

Think of it this way: You won't have to struggle to rank your preferences among these civs like con will

[conmcb25]

Oh man, Ill never be able to figure that out

Ah - excuse me. But I'm 19.

So in dog years that puts you at...

Since Sir Ralph is already making the map, I'll volunteer to make the rules for this game. Assuming con doesn't object...

[Beta]

MWIA - we are waiting. This had better not be a pre-cursor to playing turns.

[MrWhereItsAt]

Er, am I supposed to post my pick here, or just PM to Beta?!

The idea as explained is hideously confusing.... but as I pick first and whatever I choose is mine, logically I should be able to just post here. OK then. I hope you're right, logic, else I'll beat you to death with my maximum improbability stick.

My pick is... (back in a sec, once I've looked over the thread again...)

Babylon

What more fitting to choose than my favourite civ of all time, and the first one I ever played as in Civ and Civ3!

Sheesh you guys were eager! Post in the middle of my day and you expect a reply within 8 hours? I'd like to see you guys do that if I posted when YOU were at work

Oh... and why is no-one online now?!?
