Here is the current status of the first settings page

World seed poll (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=112355) Result = don't use world seed
World size poll (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=112353) Result = large but only by a whisker and with < 50% support. I think we should repoll using large and huge only
Barbarians poll (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=112354) Result = inconclusive! This poll had a bipolar distribution between Roaming and Raging, opposed by a very slim plurality for Random. Our nation has bipolar disorder. :lol: Tradition would demand a runoff when the top vote getter has only 30% of the vote, but with random winning maybe we should just go with it.
Landmass poll (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=112356) Result = Random
Climate (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=112357) = Random, Temperature (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=112358) = Random, Age (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=112359) = Random. At least this is consistent and doesn't require any special methods of determining the settings. :D

Here is an image of the 2nd settings page.
This one is with no settings filled in, and is provided for the benefit of those without Conquests to see the new options.

Hi Dave,
Culturally Linked Starts and Respawn AI should both be turned off.

Curious how close these results came to the very first polls someone misleadingly tried to strangulate. I am glad that the result did not change much, which proves the point.

Someone should poll how many opposing Civs we should face, based on Large World.

Almost an even split between normal, more, and most.

CT , you gotta poll number of opposing CIVs. 3-12 plus random and abstain, Optional None for the Weirdos to win on walkover.

I think world size = large.
Now we only need to poll the number of opponents.
