I think you should be around when you post so you can respond to messages about problems of the sort cas and I ran into. So wait 10 days and, if someone wants to post something before then, you can use 34 instead of 33.

I'd like to claim Qin (Ind/Pro) for some reasonably near future game. I'm happy to wait for a while if other people want to host games after whatever CHEESE! posts.

Nothing can help if you don't even open the thread, but maybe we can work out some standard wording for the very beginning of each new leader thread that tells people what's going on. Our main boilerplate belongs at the end as now, but maybe the beginning should say:Yeah but I've been kinda avoiding these threads since I basically never played Noble ... I could have helped the noble players, but still, it put me off even opening the threads.

Your call, but since bullpen threads sometimes discuss what leader to pick next and come up with a specific choice, there's no harm in telling us.
CHEESE!

I'm reposting this question. I'm curious if yall have considered having CFC create a sub-forum for Nobles Club or maybe a combined forum with the other clubs like Immortal, etc.? The intro threads and faqs could be stickied. I think these group games are great but this forum seems unwieldy now. I think it still still be a sub-forum of S&T since it's still about learning the game and improving skill level.
edit: another thought is to simply sticky this thread

I don't have any idea what the criteria might be for creating a sub-forum, but don't have any objection to putting NC, LHC, and PYL there. They all have "history" behind them. What happens when someone tries to create a new series, though? When does something qualify for the new subforum? What about the various RPC series like Sisutil's, madscientist's, etc -- some people shadow those, kind of like the ones I already mentioned, but they seem somehow different to me.
If we're going to have a "sticky" NC bullpen thread, OTOH, we might want to ask TMIT to edit the first post a little to say what the series has become.

I fixed your link inside the quote; it had a double HTTP:.

Does someone else want to plan the next game? I still want to do Qin sometime, but have been ill for a while and have some general catch-up to do before I try hosting something new.
I'm a noble level player really. I've won a few lucky monarch games IIRC, and Ive been trying prince level also (thats between noble and monarch right?)
I used to love rushing the A.Is on noble with almost any civ, but on monarch they all start with archery which is just SO not fun.
Well, I could always play Rome and prat-rush right? (or get lucky and warrior rush some close-by A.I's empty capital)
but yeah, it seems im kinda out of tactics to tackle the monarch level at the moment. On noble I liked pangea the most with lots of warmongering but on monarch it seems its again a bit harder to combine expansion, wars, not lagging behind too much, and trying to avoid getting backstabbed by lots of A.Is at the same time. Fav leaders probably would be Roosevelt, Stalin and Lizzy probably (she's surely better than Victoria right?)
Oh yeah and Tokugawa is also fun as hell, though a bit hard since his traits arent that good economically. But Toku's samurais and rifles (and even late game hammer crazy UB)
Hmm I might try my luck with the Incans though, they'll probably do a decent job rushing the A.Is warriors/archers even on monarch right? Plus a strong trait combo and a good UB.

Had some extra time tonight. NC XXXIV Pericles is up. Hopefully I've learned from all my previous wb mistakes and this one is clean from the start.
Will tackle Giggles as my next leader when it's my rotation again.

I've been meaning to do it with the slew of games. I wish the keys could be passed between but that doesn't work so I'll do it.
Give me a bit.
