Welcome to The Deity Challenge Lineup!
This was a fortnightly event, but the schedule has changed and new games will now be posted every 10 days.
All games in this series will be set to Deity difficulty.
User civilizations, maps, and opponents will change with each challenge, but the game speed will always be set to Standard and the starting era will always be Ancient.
We will try for a variety of starts, and not just having a crazy warmonger as your next door neighbor (although there will be that too).
This isn't a competition so there will be no predefined victory conditions.
The spreadsheet of all challenge finishers to date has been updated and is available here.

Host's Note
I have taken over the hosting of this challenge on a caretaker basis. In choosing this first map, I have purposefully chosen a challenge that I think is not too hard and not too easy. Aspiring Deity players should have a chance to chalk up a win, while better players may be able to do something truly special. The map is a random roll except for the age of the terrain (5 Billion Years), and the AI civs turned out to be quite an interesting mix.
For future challenges, I will be choosing a variety of different maps, not just Pangaea, but to get us started I thought I'd choose a familiar type of land, and a civ that doesn't get much discussion which is quite flexible and can lead to a variety of different game types.
I hope you all enjoy it!
