There has been an effort to set up a new Warlords Democracy Team Game here but it has been surrounded by some controversy as some notable people have pointed out that it will slow down other DGs and therefore should be postponed until the other DGs are closer to completion. Some strong arguments have been provided by people on both sides (see the thread), so it's time to decide this in an appropriate fashion: a vote.
Basically two proposals are on the table (aside from postponing the game for now): a regular multi-team game without cooperative wins to allow for full dynamics in terms of diplomacy (which really requires at least 4 teams), or a 1-vs-1 fast-paced cutthroat fighting game with maybe some AIs thrown in for spice. The latter would require less people to run and certainly be a nice variety on the existing concept and an appropriate theme for a Warlords DG, but this proposal was made relatively late in the discussion when most people had already signed up for a regular-format game.
So please vote for whatever option most closely reflects your opinion and explain it if necessary. Feel free to promote this thread to other DG gamers to allow for as many people as possible to participate in the discussion/vote.
Note that this thread is for discussing whether or not this game should take place. To actually sign up for it, pick a team and discuss details of the format and game settings, go here.
This poll will be open for as long as we (the Apolyton administration) deem necessary depending on activity but likely 1-2 weeks.
