1, 2: No experience whatsoever
3, 4: I've been playing with the local idiots (C3C), but whoever feels like some kindergartening, really. BCLG mentionned a CDZ team, that is a good option to me.
5. PC

 

[Niklas]

Please add me as a lurker to the Smurkz roster. I don't have Warlords (yet) so I can't play (at this point) but I might still drop a comment or two.

What he said.

And as I recall, I led Team Bede to a stunning upset loss to a cultural victory by the Celts of all people in the SGOTM original. Perhaps under other auspices it will go better.

Yeah, I remember that. Hopefully this time things will work out better than the last attempt.

A lesson in how to make friends and influence people?

Counter-cultural was once cool, now it's just an affectation.

I'm just a little disillusioned lately. (And maybe I'm trying to stir the pot a little... )

 

[cabert]

Which level (noble, monarch, etc.) are you comfortable playing in a solo game? Comfortable on Monarch, nervous but competant on Emperor.
Have you played any Civ4/Warlords GOTM games before? Yes.
Have you played any succession games or SGOTM before? Yes.
Do you have a group of players you want to play with? Yes - Trash Team (if we can get Cabert to capitulate).
Please state if you wish to play in OS X on a Mac. If so you will have to join a Mac-only team. No.

I capitulate, now find some other players!

I'm playing monarch usually, I played SGotM3 with the trash team, and I'm PC only.
TRash team for the win...errr....the loss

 

[sooooo]

Do you forsee a time when teams can have people who play on both macs and PCs?

Since we are now committed to using the HoF Mod for all Civ4-based GOTM competitions, and the HoF Mod is currently incompatible across the two platforms, it would need one of two significant developments:

It could happen if Firaxis and Aspyr (the Mac version publishers) ever get their act together to adapt the game software to support cross-platform SDK-based mods. That isn't beyond the wit of competent programmers, but I'm not sure I can see a commercial justification for them to do it, apart from the good will it would generate in the Mac gaming community.

The only other option I can see is to find a way to make the full HoF Mod functionality work without a custom DLL. I have given that a little thought, and have some ideas that may work, but I haven't even had enough time to build a proof of concept to see what's feasible.
