Best explorer in the game... never obsoletes... can build from the off...
As stated earlier; Yes, though maybe I wasn't clear that I do wish to play..
I agree with bathsheba666 with game expectations. I am GMT-5 and play anytime but best in the early am 5AM-10AM. I play Noble 1-1 because I can win there. I can also win at Monarch but Noble doesn't require deep thought. PBEM is more fun, real people, so I don't play 1-1 very often...I read. I'm fine with random civ and leader.
Michkov - you are in. Any specific times that work best for you or really anytime? Our goal is 1 turn every 2 days, and even thats probably a stretch...
Also, general idea of skill level?
But you have to ask yourself these questions;
1)Am I patient enough,
2)Because it is what it is, you must look at this as playing this so the others can too, if I quit or feel it has become less important over time, this translates to hurting the rest of the players who have made the same commiment to YOU. Play this for the GAME and the PLAYERS rather than for yourself.
3)Can I find an Alternate player for myself? Many players wouldn't commit to this kind of game but would be willing to cover the 1 or 2 turns that could be played while you are on Holiday.
4)I have 3 great ideas that could dramatically help this game survive! I've not seen any of them done yet, If your interested in hearing them quote this line and I'll PM you and I'll explain while I just didn't state them here
I'm interested in joining, as this really seems to get off the ground.
One essential thing is: I really think the map needs to be designed.
In the game "Chi " we also play on a huge map with 18 players (although 10 AI's), but frankly I think the map is a bad one, and for me it really kills a lot of the fun to be had.
(and in my opinion it says something that I am saying this about Chi, while I am leading the charts..)
And as I said before I am also willing to design it, and not play.
Or we could randomize the position someone gets in the game
(we did that before with a "double blind" procedure > one person makes a player order, a second a civ order, and a third combines them).
Play level: Well I guess I am in the Ozzy/Batsheeba and Paradigm category so that would be tier-1.
If we don't want a completely mirrored map, someone will still get better and some worse locations, which leads to people feeling cheated by the mapmaker.
