Please post any suggestions you have about the DG2 startup announcement here.
[DG2] - Input for the Announcement
- Thread starter DaveShack
- Start date
No input yet?
Let's put a timeframe on this. Reliable sources say we'll have new forums before the end of the week, barring something unforseen coming up (and that's hedging a bit). The announcement doesn't necessarily have to be at the same time, but as soon as possible after the basic structure is in place makes the most sense.
I'm not quite the world's least inspirational writer, but it would be a close race. Surely we have someone in the DG who has ideas of how to entice veterans to return and newcomers to try the new game.
If nobody has input, I'll do my best. Can't say it will be a thing of beauty but at least I hope it won't scare anyone off.

Looking for the door...
Try sliding something in about lack of moderation. 
The next Civ4 Democracy Game is now open and ready for you to come help shape our destiny and build a civilization which will stand the test of time. If you've never heard about Democracy Games, here's an excerpt from our Welcome and FAQ. Watch this space in coming weeks for news of special events to kick off the new game.
What is the demogame?
As the name implies, the demogame is a game of Civilization 4 being played by a group of people. We are mimicking an organized government, a democracy, where part of the players are elected by the remaining players, the citizens, to take on various roles of our civilization, such as President, cabinet minister, Chief Justice, and Governor or Mayor. These leaders are responsible for posting discussion threads and polls on the various aspects of the game to gather the citizens' thoughts, and then, every few days, the game is played. Even citizens who do not participate as leaders still have an active role to play, as citizens provide the backbone for all discussions and decisions in the forums. Throughout the demogame as our civilization progresses, new leaders are elected, new cities are founded, and new wars are fought, but our goal to play the game of Civilization 4 collectively remains.
