Still going on here. That's fine. I can't have a look to often here, but meanwhile there is no need anymore for it.
The German will start creating teams if the settings are clear.
Let me see which questions still have to be answered:
1) pangaea or continent (I think the over options are out of discussion)
1b) If continent with or without island for some unique ressources?
2) How "big" would our world be. I think something between 60*60 to 80*80 tiles would be realistic.
3) Which Civs can be choosen? The discussion goes on, several ideas are given (No AA UU, no agriculture). Clear is we want a limitation, how fare we gonna see soon. Here is the link to this discussion (meanwhile a lot in english):

4) Barbs?
I like them, they give the game more tension in the beginning. Of course there is the problem that only the last player can see there moves, but for the last team it's harder to research a new tech first, or to biuld a World Wunder. So this little bonus is okay for me.
I don't like playing without huts. They can generate first diplomatic problems.
5) accelerated production?
Please not. I don't think there is one german player who likes this option. But if you really want it, try to convince
6) where to post diplomatic issues?
We normally use "ambassador-forums", one for every two-team-constellation, only visible for the specific teams. In this game we would need 6 Forums or we use E-Mail. So that every team get an ambassador mailadress. For the referees using the forum would be more comfortable.
7) How would the save move from team to team and referee?
We still discuss the two last points in this thread:

8) Timelimitation?
We use a limit of 24 h for every turn and team. But there is also the possibility of saving some time for special moments (if there is special need of discussion). In the last game I think the maximum of saving time was three days 72 hours. And if you hold the save too long, the referees will end the turn without moving any unit, just clicking next turn.
9) The "rulebook"? Are there still some questions/wishes/comments?
