General Chat Intentions

We will be trying for around 10 turns per chat. Some chats may be shorter if big important things pop up. Some chats may be longer if nothing is happening except exposing territory and pressing the end of turn button.

It is my intention to have all critical items discussed and decided on the forums and not in the chat room.

Turn 0 instructions (especially simple unit movement, population assignments, and build queues) will generally be completed just before the chat turn begins. If an action is deemed necessary for future considerations (example: trading for a tech that will expose other trades) this office is not opposed to performing that action and posting a new save so long as that action clearly has the support of the people.
 
My first order of business is to welcome Chieftess to the Vice Presidential position. Our contest has produced the highest voter participation of any election through all 3 demogames. The final tally put her a mere couple of votes behind me. Quite a contest!

Here's to a full term of such great participation and excitement! :beer:
 
Our first chat will be very short. It will be the creation of our game world and movement of our worker and scout (if applicable). We will return to the forums to discuss city placement and what to call our new nation. We are using these options for our game:
Code:
World Size	Large
Barbarians	Random
Land Mass	Continents
Water Coverage	60%
Climate		Random
Temperature	Random
Age		Random

Civilization	Random
Rivals		Default
Rules		Default
Difficulty	Monarch

Mod:		Increase aircraft bombardment strength 10%
		Bomber: 8 --> 9
		Stealth Bomber: 8 --> 9
		Cruise Missle: 16 --> 18
 
I was wondering that too. Congratulations on your presidency... /me just found out what 'Shaitan' means... :eek:
 
Hehehe...did you just learn Farsi, Plexus? :)
 
Although I am a CT supporter, I congratulate you on a hard earned victory. Also, can someone tell me, what does Shaitan mean?
 
Ever read any of the Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan?
 
1) Shaitan also means "alone" or "regal". Farsi's not the only language out there, ya know. ;)

2) Tentative chat schedule is posted in the first post. Note that it's tentative and will change depending on the game's (and my) needs if things come up. It is set up for a game every third day.

3) The water coverage poll is complete so we are now ready to start the game up. The 3 aircraft are modified in a scenario that's ready to go.
 
does the game start on chat 0??
@Shaitan: Because of youre large involvment in civfanatics youll probably inherit the page from tf when he retires :D

Sometimes we wonder... like when there's 0'Dark-30 turn chats. ;)

Yes, the game starts during chat 0. I've added a notes column to the chat schedule.

TF is retiring? (This is how nasty rumors get started. :evil: ) I have to doubt that I'd inherit the site but thanks for the vote of confidence. :lol:
 
I like that you have a large scale of differnt times on the chats so that europeans can join in as well :D
 
Kudos on the scheduling, Shaitan :flamedevi :satan: . (And I agree, the Evil One goes by many different names :D ) I'm not going to complain about the 4am chats, as sometimes I'm up and about at that time. I'm also glad that you're running the last chat on the last day of the month. I'm tired of seeing new Presidents having to rush in with a new schedule and immediate chat before they can get their office set up. :goodjob: Good luck (Not that you'll need it).
