Multi-team demogame idea

[Whomp]

I am constructing my own team if that's ok.

Well, Ginger_Ale and myself are getting the wheels moving. We've been e-mailing each other and PMing the needed people. Right now, the only brick wall I can see is the lack of players. At least seven per team will probably be needed before we can start polling game options.

 

[Whomp]

I don't think I will have a problem getting a team together. Four of us so far.

 

[greekguy]

I'll go on any team that needs people, so to keep things even all around.


EDIT: 700th post.

No reason to set a lower limit on number of people in a team -- though obviously it wouldn't be a team if only one played...

 

[Pentium]

How many teams do we have so far?

The teams haven't been constructed yet but you're with me kiddo. I have pms to a number of people so if I get 10-12 back maybe we can break up into 2 teams. So far we have 5 on our team. Soul Warrior, Pentium, Darwin420, Iroquios Plisken and "lil old me.

Well, I had envisioned four teams of people. I was hoping to get at least seven per team before we got started.

I suspect more will join as we get the game started. No reason to believe that the average of 5 per team we have now wouldn't do.

The most important question is, have you lined up a mapmaker? After the examples of the 2 inter-site games, I can't imagine anyone who wouldn't want balanced starts.

I would like to see a custom map to make sure all starts are reasonably equivalent.

I would like to see AI civs on the map.

I think it is a great idea, and I would play, or if you prefer, provide a map.

Maybe we should ask mad-bax for a map.

mad-bax is away on vacation iirc, or he hasn't posted.

I will post a map request at CDZ - those guys are expert mapmakers - once we decide on settings.
