Civ to play in GOTM#4 (May)

sure, we can play the Chinese for the May GOTM.

For June we can play the Germans...

btw, I think it could be fun to play a chieftain game sometimes. let's not limit the levels of GOTM to King or higher, matrix. <IMG SRC="http://forums.civfanatics.com/ubb/biggrin.gif" border=0>

I vote we play something orange, like the English.
Stands out the best.
 
I think we should always play as the "CivFanatics" Tribe. As for color....hummmm....
There is red in the logo but that's no good. We got some Green and Yellow.... so maybe those.

And I'm serious.

It would be fun to be the CivFanatics tribe indeed. The only problem will be that the cities will have the same name as the original tribe. You can't help that.

And to me that may have all the colours the rainbow has.

You could include a new city.txt
Players just backup old copy and replace with new.You can copy and paste the ai civs cities so it wouldn't take very long to do.

I'd like to see some zany maps like 200x50 or 30x220.These maps are neat cuz you usually get sections that are land blocks to the sea forcing the player to become creative with things like building a Panama Canal using 1 and 2 square lakes.Or building cities and disbanding as you move a large force across unpassable land.The ai does a little better on them also.

I think you should go for a twist or 2.Otherwise we have a regular game.

Then again,you don't want to make it brutally tough.
 
I once thought about making a CivFanatics modpack, with units as the people here. But cities work as well, I think. We just go to the Top 50 posters and use that 50 as cities.

No, you can't. We, experienced players, can. But there are many people who just want to play the game and not do to this, also because a lot people don't know how to do it! So the only thing we can do, is Call the tribe CivFanatics, perhaps change the name of the government titles (think of something fun!

), and the leader ("GOTM"?).

Yes. I think such "zany" maps could be interesting. I've never ventured beyond the realm of small/med/large, so it could be something to consider.

Are you kidding? We HAVE to play as the Zulus!!!!!

And make sure the Celts are in the game

Seriously, I like the idea of playing as the CivFanatics tribe, (assuming I ever play GOTM again

). How about including city.txt file for those who want to replace, and others can use whatever civ the CivFanatics replaced? does that make sense? does it work?

That is possible. We can rename any Civ we start with (maybe the Zulus at some time <IMG SRC="http://forums.civfanatics.com/ubb/wink.gif" border=0>) to CivFanatics, and I could make a City.txt and upload it to a forum topic.

well, I guess we can play as the CivFanatics tribe, but there is no need to make separate cities list.

Yeah.....a different City List would get confusing for newer players.

But I'm all for the odd shaped maps. I've played a few really long and really wide, flat and round. It's pretty cool!!!

Playing on a flat map really adds the need to explore and get roads!!

1. How about calling the Civ CivFanatics tribe, and have all the people that have submitted games to Matrix on the city list?

2. What difficulty level is it going to be on? Myself, I will not play unless on Prince/King (I am not better than that)

We'll call the tribe CivFanatics next time.

But the difficulty level won't be revealed until the GOTM is released.

Actually I don't care what tribe we use.

But I would make a request: NOT a large map please! Medium is fine. I love large maps but I really need two months to do my best on it, whereas I can easily do a medium map in one month.
