B04: What if they were
... ?
In an attempt to keep laughing at moments of our history, and in the lack of some inspiration from a precise period, we shall suppose several people/facts/places/moments of our world have been wrong.
Precision editing: Those are meant to be funny, not hinder the gameplay.
- Copernicus was wrong: the Earth was a Tore.
- The English were wrong: 2 islands are enough, why conquer so many places !
- Einstein was wrong:
don't work.
- Destroying wonders was wrong: wonder VC on.
- The civilopedia is wrong...Germany is SCI/MIL/IND! Yess!
- Celebrities are wrong...must name Elite* units after celebrities (Ben Affleck, George Bush, etc.). Amusing to see funny leader units.
- City names are wrong...cities must be named after founder's abbreviated name.( MP-Gold Town, BEF: Horse Lake, Viper-West Coast, SW: Incense Hil.). Now we will know who put the city in a crap location.
- God is wrong...no temples/Cathedrals. I don't think we'll miss them?
-
Aristotle is right.
If he ain't, it screws all our thinking processes of making stuff wrong. He's the master of wrong stuff.
- The 13th commandment cites: "it is wrong to be french!"
- The 14th commandment cites: Thou shall not cross a Zebra passage.
AKA we must not, by foot or by boat, ever cross the Zulu cultural barrier. This does indeed mean a lot of paras/helis when weget there. We might want to re-look at this variant sometime. Anyways, zebra crossings should be regarded with extreme care, especially by philosophs like us.
The complete list of the wrongs is always TBD.
Map is a courtesy of Igor and his Admiral, according to the current (22/06) list of wrong things we come up with. The list is not definitive.
Civ: Germany
Diff: rigged D.
Size: Large
landform: Probably watery
AI's: The wrong ones: English, Greeks, Americans, Spain, Babylon, Rome, France and some other random ones to fill in.
Barbs:
Official Variant: Some sort of NOW. We must declare war on any nation to whom we are border-neighbored. On the turn any civ plants a city that touches our border, be it by a corner-corner tip, we must eliminate it. We're bad neighbors.
Full roster:
-Beorn
-Soul_Warrior
-Viper275
-MeteorPunch
-sanabas
-Khan_Asparuh
I'd ask for whoever joins to have won Deity at least once. Please come up with something wrong as well, preferrably that will not pull up more difficulty on our poor idiot brains (we're still at the academy, don't hit us too hard).
Will close the roster, officialise the variant details and send the map request to AK by the end of this week (around the 25th). Priority recruitment for anyone who's already had to suffer me as teammate, so that they know what they're up against (
).
LK rules, ask for exploits if unsure, stay cool with everyone's idiot moves. We're all in this together. As for the roster, I was thinking of something along the lines of an open game:

Spoiler :
If this is too messy and unclear, tell me. I give myself up to the launch date to light this up to clarity, if it isn't we'll just play it 24/48.
Turns will be taken in no particular order a priori. We will count the number of turns we have each done and work from there. When someone is sub-par in his turns, he can have 15; someone who is over-par would be asked to play 5 only.
Example of a Roster:
(85)-Beorn
(70)-Soul_Warrior
(70)-Viper275
(60)-MeteorPunch
(75)-IgorTheBarb
At this point, it would be anyone's game; however, if MP were to play, he should take 15 to catch up, whereas I would impose on myself to play only 5. The 3 others could play from 5 to 15 at their fancy, but preferrably 10.
So, whoever posts a 'Got it' gets his turns, although MP getting it would be ideal, to even it up; likewise, I wouldn't take it unless no one does in the first 24hrs.
