Re: Starting

Sorry, I didn't answer all of your questions last time.

Ok, how does this work? For the 1x1 games (I have 4 scheduled for round 1), does the host just create and get them rolling?

Yes, The host can just create the game and get it started. But if they want to negotiate non standard settings they should first contact the other player.

The point here is that any player may demand the standard settings. So if the host just starts the game he is effectively just demanding the standard settings.

The host may not start a game with non-standard settings without first negotiating with the other players.

BTW: All players must veto any wonder that they want
vetoed along with or pior to there first move.
I.E. they can decide on the veto after seeing there
position for one turn, but no later.

[SIZE=1] Is it the same for the 2x2? Or, does there have to be some sort of agreement between players/teams first?

Yes, same thing for 2x2 as for 1x1.

I would also like to mention again....

The player with orange in a 1x1 game must also host. In these cases an AI player plays blue, and green. The Host's opponent will always be pink.

if no one said that yet (and even if),
i suggest anything about the 1x1 matchups goes into the appropriate 2x2 thread (that one where the two 1x1 opponents are playing too) to prevent unnecessary new threads being opened.

Good idea math. We might get booted from the forum for spawning to many threads. Perhaps non-Super league players will be PM DanQ

Thanks for that Math.

I'm having a blast so this is not trouble at all.

I updated the *9 post thread with some more detail about *9 scoring and when to determine who is ahead on *9.

[Frozzy]

I am self-imposing a quota on the amount of games I play. I will only play 5 1x1 games at any one time, due to workload.

Ricketyclik; Should our current PBEM game count to SL points? After all, we are only on Turn 4.

[yoda]

Thanks

Frozzy, I forgot to thank you for the offer to team up if Paul couldn't commit.

Slave Trade

Hmmm... I remember something from a tournament I played in many years ago. Send a bunch of diplomats to your opponents shores and let him take them out with slavers. Since this is not a cheat, I assume this type of strategy is ok. However, should we make a quick rule to prohibit this sort of action?

[checkMate]

do you mean send diplomats to your teamates shores?

Yes... create an active slave trade to beef up your cities. A bit silly, but without a ruling...

From my experience on Apolyton, it will only increase our chances of getting a new forum. The site owners for certain won't boot us, and the more complaints the more chance we have of getting our own forum

i also wanted to address that, i strongly suggest we forbid that.
