Here's where everyone settled.

The Small Print:
The numbers by each player's name indicate the turn settled on (starting turn is 0). Players are colour coded by game class (challenger=red, adventurer=blue). Symbols indicate victory condition, if there's no symbol then the player either retired or was defeated. The yellow border indicates the land that was visible at the start of the game.

I suppose its only fair that you can't get a cow with the adventurer start. Oh wells, teach me to take the easy option.

 

[matthew9890]

Oh, and congratulations to evil_spock and all the winners

 

[neilmeister]

Thats the tightest contest I have ever seen.

evil_spock gets the eptathlon by winning diplo on the same turn as WastinTime, but gets it for higher score.

1 turn in fastest conquest as well. Well done guys!!

@matthew9890, welcome to GOTM's.

 

[Alamankarazieff]

Woohoo ! 12 th spot ! That's my highest ranking in the GOTM so far.
Thanks for the fun game and the variety of starts. And congrats for all the winner.
Thus said, why isn't it called an heptathlon ? Is there a subtle pun I'm missing ?

 

[neilmeister]

Well done Alaman, you're climbing.

I'm not sure why its called eptathlon, I'm sure someone around here knows.

 

[Alamankarazieff]

/School teacher mode on
No, I understand why it's CALLED an heptathlon, meaning seven contests, I'm just puzzled as why it's spelled without an H in a few threads.
/school teacher mode off.

 

[Htadus]

It is either spanish or italian. It should be called Oct some thing for BTS with the addition of gold medal. Congrats to winners and thanks for the map.

[jesusin]

Very fun game.
Congratulations to the winners.

 

[evil_spock]

Sweet step-son-of-Humbaba!

Congratz to all winners. And thanks to kcd for making these awesome scenarios. Keep 'em coming (no pressure ).

 

[cain3456]

A culture shield? It's my first BotM win, so I'll take it. Got started late, the continent was pagan until I got Taoism.

 

[WastinTime]

Thats the tightest contest I have ever seen.

evil_spock gets the eptathlon by winning diplo on the same turn as WastinTime, but gets it for higher score.

Aw, but I played challenger and took door #1 as an additional handicap... jk.

Great game evil_spock! Congrats.

 

[DynamicSpirit]

Aw, but I played challenger and took door #1 as an additional handicap... jk.

Not to mention settling right next to the desert, even though you'd have been able to see that moving one more tile would have given you an extra resource!

 

[MangeTonChapeau]

Thanks for this game and the innovative but fun setup !

 

[WastinTime]

Not to mention settling right next to the desert, even though you'd have been able to see that moving one more tile would have given you an extra resource!

No, I decided that settling an Plains-Hill was a better start location. Allowing the other resource to go to another city. So I don't see this a handicap to my game.
