Presumably by that you mean that the terrain is symmetric (that is presumably rotational symmetry of order four for four teams)? Are you planning to do anything about huts / ruins?

[FlameFlash]

*grumbles something to himself about being in too many games before saying* Sure! Sounds great, Gav!

Anybody willing to team up with this newbie?

I am a Property Developer, not a Rocket Scientist...

The Map will not be symmetrical... But they do have their place, particularly in tournament play... Goody Huts will be eliminated altogether if that is what the participants want.

Well I'm a maths undergraduate, so you've got to expect that kind of thing from me.

What? Rocket Scientists? .

[Gavrushka]

And I graduated as a Computer Scientist... But so long ago, that when I have problems with My Comp, I call my aging Mother to help..

Mind you it would be interesting to have a White Collar, Blue Collar no Collar battle...

The Dustbinmen Versus the Politicians..

The Lawyers Versus the Criminals...

I'm in, Gav. I don't like specialty games, so I'll join anything that has a normal set of rules.

And even though I'm armed with the secrets of Blackice's civilizatoins, I'm still a newbie, so I guess I shouldn't partner up with Flame.

[Seige]

I just read the trollvsdavid thread and decided it was a good idea.

I challenge someone to a 1vs1 small map Keygen's Mod Lite game. No moderator, so to apply you need to be someone reliable. By reliable I mean already participating in a couple of games with the 24hour rule and not holding them up.

I think that should open the offer to newbies and veterans alike. So if any newbies want to duel with me, or any pros want to school me, let me know.

A very unhelpful comment- the agreed update interval is a month, the last time was March 3rd... The new Table is already prepared, over the last few months a lot of effort has gone into encouraging people to be rated, and getting new players on board, and yes I have to compromise against running and owning a business that turns over 8,000,000USD Annually... I cannot remember seeing many hands thrown skyward offering to update when Quinns Disappeared, constructive criticism is one thing comments like this are highly counterproductive.

blackice and you act as if you were somewhat forced to keep up with the ratings. Don't let it become a burden! Just say you are busy making money by the truckload and don't have time for much else, except for the occasional bathroom break

The bottom line is, you don't owe us anything... If you did, most of us would prefer cash

Don't try and read my mind or second guess me, I do the ratings because I want to, not for glory, praise or self-edification, the point being there is nothing more irksome than someone undermining those efforts for no other reason than to put his post-count up one, do not attempt to dissuade any other individuals from joining the PBEM rankings, it serves no purpose whatsoever other than to cause irritation and dissent. If you do not wish to be in the PBEM ratings that is your Prerogative, and if you do wish to be the Devils Advocate, and carry on your Anti Rating Rhetoric, feel free, but don't expect me to let comments just pass... The PBEM and Internet Leagues will run for some time yet.

blackice and you act blackice and you act as if you were somewhat forced to keep up with the ratings.

Jp now back up this BS show me where I have said that and or infered it...Digging a hole again I see... I do it because I chose to to help out besides it's fun...It's constructive you?

The bottom line is, you don't owe us anything...

Nope we don't, nor did we ask... what we are saying is comments like you made (make)are non productive whinny.

Now Gav does a good job if you want the ratings done daily you are welcome to do it. Until then why slam someone who is and how they are doing it? Here we all can offer our time to help out you can anytime you are up to it. The comment you made was unfair and unjust as we all know what we agreed to...

I will not get into a war of words with you it will end up as immature as the last one.

You want the ratings done daily you do them until then be constructive like the rest of us...

IF I created the map and Zobo or Keygen would Mod start it for me then Grrrreat... otherwise a 5 settler 5000 gold start will be suggested.. Be great if people can post with their proposed team mate....

I'd like to play. But one thing: would someone please explain the methodology/logistics of team/paired games?

[jpww]

Some people can't take I joke, I see

...As if people really stopped wanting to be rated because I said so

If you say you do it for fun then don't take my comments so seriously

Well that is the Beauty of CTP, the rules are what we agree, team play means VICTORY, for the team rather than the individual - the Victory conditions are decided before the Game starts- It could be ALien Life Project, it could be total annihilation of one other team, it could be world domination, capturing all the enemy capitals... or eliminating one member of the opposing teams, as regards Strategies, the options are multiplied a millionfold- I am cooperating with another player in a game we are in (not officially teams) and we went Rennaisance.....On turn 18. One player may become the scientist, the other one the Military force... Whatever you like!

So my hand is up... let me know.

Well, give it a try then

I can start it, no problem but I can't moderate it.
I kind find the 7 games and soon 8 I moderate too many for my taste

So, what would you write if it wasn't a joke?
