  • [Team] The Goonies (former Pirate) Sign Up

    I've settled in on forming a Pirate concept Team.


    What is the Pirate Concept?

    The Pirate Team shall remain neutral to all teams. We will not form permanent alliances with any nation. We understand disagreements may occur with teams, but will return to neutral status once the disagreements are resolved. No permanent grudges shall be held.

    The Pirate Team will engage in Privateering should it be offered to us. (Being paid to fight against a nation) These will be simple contracts, negotiated individually.

    We will not seek to completely destroy any team (unless of course paid to do so), for we feel the more targets teams in the game the better for everyone.

    We will, however, seek...compensation...from teams who attack us.

    Team Pirate shall place it's concept as a higher comitment than winning the game. We are here for fun, not to win at all cost.

    ___________________________________________

    How does this differ from Team Mercenary then?

    Team Mercenary is not free to attack for it's own gain. Team Pirate will take what they want.

    Teams hiring the Mercenaries have full control over the units. Hiring Team Pirate shall only be a waiver to attack team X, Team Pirate shall engage how they see best.

    Team Mercenary has a standard pricing format. Team Pirate shall negotiate each price on an individual basis.
    ___________________________________________

    Members seeking to join should be willing to abide by these rules:

    Team Pirate (name could be improved) shall not discriminate against anyone from joining. If you want to play with only your close group of friends, or have folks you cannot get along with, this team is not for you.

    Every Member of Team Pirate shall have equal representation in the team.

    Every Member of Team Pirate shall be allowed to play turns or complete any official duty should they wish to do so.

    Every Member agrees to allow team discussion before they play a turn or engage in diplomacy. Failure to do so may result in walking the plank. (expulsion from the team)

    Every Member shall place fun of the game before their competitive nature.

    No ridiculing or belittling of any member of the GAME, not just the team, shall be tolerated and WILL result in walking the plank. Every idea has merit, every post shall be respected.

            Listening to the song made me think that "The Scurge" could be a fun name if you do want something other than "Team Pirate".

            "He wants a LIME in it..."

                    Sounds interesting, but i don't even grasp the concept of "demo teams game". Do 5-6 people share one civ?

                      Ah. Somewhere there was a FAQ for that question...

                      Anyway. Yes, Everyone signing up here (or with any of the teams) will be sharing the same civ. We'll all discuss how best to move, and how best to handle the other teams in diplomacy, etc. Then one of us will log into the game and do what is decided.

                      Some teams will set up 'governments' saying who does what job when and where and such. We're going to be more 'chaotic' in that we'll allow anyone who wants to play a turn, do it. There will be a few who emerge as the 'standard' players, but I strongly believe in encouraging participation by anyone on the team, and this way, everyone gets equal chance. You have time to do it today and want to?: Great, do it.

                      Where the more traditional 'governments' require a person to agree to do it every turn for a month or more at a time.

                      I strongly reccomend you join a team which suits you, sit back and when the game gets going, participate for a bit and see if it's to your liking.

                      There is also the Civ IV demogame going with the same concept.


                      It's still pretty early in that game, you could join a team there and jump right in.

                      List of team with links to their respective signup threads is here: http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...hreadid=143636

                      Some teams have differing policies with new members there, if all else fails, Team Merc will welcome you on their team.

                        Pinchak, I think at least team Sarantium would be pleased to have you on our team.

                        This is my personal feeling though...
                        if you like to join us, there would be a mandatory intra team vote about it.

                          Discriminatory bastards, those Sarantium folk.

                          Team Merc has a strict 'everyone who wants to, gets in' philosophy. I won't be on any other kind of team.

                          What's with the name change btw, flamer?

                              Thread hijack! (Sorry Uno) But yes, pinchak, I would vote for Sarantium to accept you.

                              And thanks UnO for the quick demo game summary.
