Ian Norbury....google his works.

Really..show me. I remember a short term deal that expired, timed my attack around it in fact. I honor all my deals... I have NEVER been accused of breaking a deal in all my civ playing days. Bring proof and I will admit my mistake and apologize. IF you would have brought it up in the game...

my 2 cents based of a pitboss.. inland sea becomes unbalanced due to the difficulty in sending ships and the "single front" nature of the sea. At most you fight on two fronts and it makes this all but a out tech to military race. Hub has similar problems but more fronts that are chokepoints...

I am 100% agaisnt non-coded rules. no way to enforce it.

top 2 runoff unless 3 are tied then all 3. I am actually conflicted...between 3 and 4. voted 3 so enforcement is code driven instead of mod driven

in..unless settings are such that limits my ability to play.

same boat as you but 2 kids. I think we need to decide if we want to vote all separate components or lump them like you did. BUT you didnt have the epic speed PBEM. :mischief::eek::crazyeye: AGAIN one final plea...daily turns or too long of a game will reduce this to a prolonged "team"...

Your kids would be playing it at the end... Yet I am only 5% older. Moved 2 jobs, 3 different houses, and lived in 2 states during that time. My youngest kid has doubled in age.

provo...why are you so hung up on Epic. I cant see a demo-game of any kind making to the end with the same people starting it on that speed. And again I really do not think you have a clue to what the MTDG is...there is NO politics. Perhaps you should read a few team forums to figure out what...

I agree the whole point isnt speed but rather a game where joint decisions and discussions can be made. That's why I also think the sequential turn pitboss has merit. It is the hybrid of the two types. Its a limited time frame and it forces a turn. IF we forbid the pause usage to once every x...

regardless.. I think we have to have rules with punishments and admins that are willing and able to exact punishment. Whether that is turn timer or double moves.

you guys were also quick to end a war... what was ours..one turn.

I disagree on expanding the teams to 7. With the exception of Epsilon(maybe) I doubt there were 7 people still able to play a turn. You will likely have the same attrition.

Right we couldn't trust you guys because while we were trading you were turning around and getting techs from Epsilon despite saying that you wanted to attack them. To me it was the constant saying one thing but then doing the opposite.

What really pushed me to attack was the trade at the end. Until that point I was debating on seeing if I had a chance to sneak into victory by not attacking either of you. BUT that trade request where you said accept it or get nuked...was the deal breaker. Someone mentioned that I was using the...
