We are fortunate to have a large citizen-total with a wide variety in both veterans and newbies.

The newbies seem very eager to participate and have already set up a thread for themselves; The Newbies Society (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=95139).

Let us veterans reach out and adobt a newbie so that the newbies have a personal veteran to ask questions to and to coordinate the participation, while the veterans have a chance to do some other useful things, besides taking up all the offices. That way cooperation is increased and soon we have newbies in offices.

Any veteran and newbie interested, post here.

This post needs updating on a regular basis and I would do it, if I wasn't going on holiday tomorrow, so colleague-mods; please update this post when veterans and newbies sign up.

I already did with my group

urm im hopefully keeping the 2 newbies in my thread well informed from the samurai thingy, PM'ing them about elections whats new and the such like so sign me up.

I am not a vet, but I don't consider myself a newbie.

Oh wait...

Technically I am :D

But I learn alot by watching and waiting rather than posting.

Hey, I adopted Rik Meleet when he was a newbie and look where it got me. He's now voting against me! :lol:

no one adopted me, cept maybe Ct and chiefpaco, slightly but i didnt turn about so bad, did i :)

Heh, I adopted Strider in DG1 and he put me out of Science.

Meh. I guess adoption can lead me great places :rotfl:

Okay, I'm up for grabs :D

Hey I'm a newbie to this :-D But I tend to figure things out on my own fairly quickly.

*whimpers* Would someone please adopt a poor abandoned little noobie, the world of demogames is too harsh for me to be left all alone :D

You can sign me up. ;)

I was 'adopted' by two people. IIRC, they were Chieftess and Cyc. I think they were trying to create some sort of superdemogamer out of me, but they ended up with this. Close enough. ;)

I would 'adopt,' though I don't feel it is needed. Anyone can ask me a question (demogame related mind you), and I will answer.

Sign me up. This demogame is very big and scary :(

I would like to adopt a newbie :).

I would like someone to adopt me.

Please adopt me..... I am orphan :(

I could use some orphans :) LOL

Fagin
Oliver Twist

I'll sign up

I need a mommy... or daddy... whichever

I need a mommy... or daddy... whichever

I just need money! Please send to... :D

Hmm, I am looking for a newbie to adopt that will be willing to be active in the demogame :). Plus with all the newbies pleading to be adopted, its hard to chose.

They are multiplying. :eek:

We need more 'veterans' over here. Maybe some elites (Civ joke :yeah: )...

Come on guys, let them in on the fun!

CivGeneral, adopt me please :cry:

By looking over the newbies, I have chose MSTK. The reason I chose him is because he shows promise on being an active demogamer since as his signature shows, that he is going to be a cartographer for this demogame.

Yay! :rotfl:

...

So...

What now?

I will take 'untaken' new people (everyone deserves a shot), but I want to see some vets show up. That way I don't have to take on just about everyone.

Yay! :rotfl:

What now?
Well, since this is the start of the game. Were basicly discussing rules and such. Once the game starts things will go from there. As I noticed that youre planning to be a cartographer, What sort of Paint program do you have?

(Since were in the slow/ruleset phase of discussions, I could possibly show you how to make good maps)

I use the Gimp...I can't afford PSP.

Here are some of my work so far on some Succession Games and my Civ3 Story:

@sniper devil, any samurai'ers automatically come under my hand, if you have any problems of any sort dont hesitate to contact me.

Yes master :)

So, since I'm a total newbie to this part of the forums, what is this DemocracyV game thing, anyway? It seems to be a giantly-multiplayer game of civ3 with multiple people per civ, but other than that I'm clueless. Help? Please?

Well i am a new player (newbie sounds like a slur) im more than happy to follow people around to learn the game better. but adopting seems a little weird, maybe the different departments could establish a Inter system (is this the word) to train people in their respective departments, maybe a limit of 2 per department, first in first serve type of thing.

Even though at the start of this game I was a newbie, I can consider my self a veteran now because of my active participation. DemoGame is a single player game on Vanilla. Have a look at my links in my signature to find out more.

Lord Fraiser, check out this (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=91345) thread. :)

The demogame is a single player game, as classical hero said. We all collaborate together on how to build our nation (slider settings, technology research, military plans). We elect leaders that take charge of the different aspects of civ - Military Leader, Trade Leader, a President (who plays the turns after input from the leaders who get input from the citizens ;) ).

But the thread I linked you to is much better at explaining it - ask a question there if you have a question! Enjoy the demogame. :)

I need to be adopted. I've only been in the game for about a day and i catch on quick. I am pretty active too, just give me a job and tell me what to do :D

Detail,
Welcome to the forums and the demo game. I too am a relative newcomer here having only been active for a month and a half. I will adopt you if noone who is a more veteran has time.

I suggest that you find some nook or cranie and offer good advice in that area. You could start as a mayor and offer suggestions to the governor for your city. It is an honorary position, but also one that is more or less yours for life. HAI-RANDO needs several mayors. Take a look at the thread in the Government section and post for a city that you are interested in.

Moth,
Thanks for the help I'll check it out. Sounds cool though.

Rik Meleet, any chance you can update this thread?

What about those who were noob's at first, when this thread first opened? Would they now be considered vet's?

Rik Meleet, I ask that if you are here, and wish to continue running this. To update the first post. If you don't answer me by sunday, I will assume that you are unable to continue with this and post my own thread for this.
