With the voting in the team forums complete, I can now publically announce the civ and leader choices for our five teams. Remember, it's impossible to keep leader choices secret in a Pit Boss game (you see all five when logging in) so this post doesn't give away any extra information. Here were the selections:
Team 1: Elizabeth of England
Saturn (Team 2): Darius of Persia
SANCTA (Team 3): Willem of the Netherlands
Team 4: Joao of Portugal
Team 5: Pacal II of the Mayans
I am pleased to say that almost every team was able to get their first preference with no conflict over duplicates. In the one case where we did have a conflict, the team involved voted last night/today and received another one of their top picks. I hope everyone is happy with how things came out, I think we used a system that worked relatively well.
I intend to create the map for the Demogame tonight, and finish up any tweaks it needs tomorrow. What we still need from the teams:
- Teams 1, 4, and 5 need to finish up the process of choosing an official name. This is underway in all three forums, and proceeding nicely. Please try to finish ASAP.
- We are still lacking a host for the Demogame PitBoss! If you would like to volunteer your server, or know someone who might be able to do so, please contact Gingle Ale immediately.
The goal is to launch the Demogame at the beginning of next week, just in time for our self-imposed November 30 deadline. I will send each team a picture of their starting location once the map is created, so they can start discussing first-turn strategies. We're almost ready to go - thanks for sticking with us through the creation process!
