Soooo..please start discussing the games
Deadline has now passed, we have lots of saves and imo this really shows how lively our forum still is
What can be discussed?
Anything you would also think about in normal games.
What you (and others) did until now, why, future plans, map layout that can be seen so far, AIs, city spots, teching, builds, using traits..
..and what cannot be talked about?
Anything that would not be visible from at least one of the current saves.
Obvious i think, there are not many restrictions other than out of place spoilers.

I will try working out how to make shorter & easier to read linkes, any tips?
If you spot an error with linked saves, by all means let me know please.
(checking if it's really your save could make sense)
Voting
Once you are sure which of those
15 saves are your favorites,
you can post them in order.
1. gets 3 points
2. gets 2 points
3. gets yup you guessed so, 1 point
If you cannot decide on an order, those points get adjusted..
i.e. if you like all 3 the same, they each get 2 points.
You cannot give more than 6 points total, and i will think about how we divide them if other cases occur.
Everybody can discuss, but
only players who posted a save may vote.
Ofc that also means, you cannot vote for your own game
Votes
must include reasons why you picked those games.
Those reasons can be short or long typed, can spend one hour or 3mins on that,
but we will need some thoughts on them for a fair competition & learning purposes.
Votes with 0 reasoning will not be accepted.
Resi plops & other lucky or unlucky events
I will not interfer here.
If you like the save which had copper plopped i.e., based on what was done there, goody.
We will have 3 saves to continue from in any case, and everybody can decide for themselves which they pick. All i ask for here: remain neutral towards those saves, and consider them fairly.
Exploration, barbs & units lost..
..aka factors that may happen in all games.
Also up to you how you consider those, if you think exploration is important on this map,
you can give bonus points in your mind for those saves who did well there.
Or warriors lost to barbs (or fights won), i cannot really give guidelines on how you judge that.
Everything can or cannot be included in your final vote.
..aaand finally, i would encourage waiting with voting decisions until some discussion was done.
You may get inspiration from there, which helps "judging" games.
