Organizing a 7-player game.

[Az]

I think we're done!

Players are:

kittenOFchaos
Flatlander Fox
RastaMon
drake
Smoke
jiml_63
gia65man
and me

...8!!!

Unfortunately we have decided a 7 player game is not the best. 5 players would be better.
Some of you guys have to leave probably...

I propose two alternatives to those leaving:

1) The DSG (Dual Succession Game).

2) The Non Stop MP Game: http://forums.civfanatics.com/Forum3/HTML/000369.html

We are recruiting players in both. If you don't know what a Succession game is just contact on ICQ 114052552.

I'm not the host here but I presume PsyPhi shares the same opinion on the number of players:

Perhaps we should aim for less than seven players. The game won't take so bloody long and will be much easier to coordinate. If we decide to go with 4 players would we want to use AI? Also, a smaller map would be helpful in bringing civs in contact earlier.

Smoke you should get ICQ!

Great.

It looks like we're ready to get this thing started. I'll ICQ those who expressed interest to wrap up the details.

Let it be known that I am not very experienced with civ multi-player. I've played with friends alot, but this is going to be a learning experience for me. Don't underestimate raw talent though

(i.e. I'm gonna lose

)

Feel free to post if you need to

Ok I ICQed everyone. If you did not receive the message here's what it said:

Hello. I'm wrapping up the plans for the multi-player civ game. Please let me know what times would be best and most consistently free for you. I'll organize a schedule based on what everyone informs me about their availability. Also express what rules and conditions you would prefer playing with. We should be able to work it out so that everyone is happy. Thanks.

ICQ me at 48547459 or for those who don't have ICQ, email at mattceloria@hotmail.com or just post here.

But still.

People have to leave!

My proposition is still on:

A succession game is a SP (Single Player) game played by a group of people.


Each player plays 15 turns.
While playing he must keep a timeline of the most important events that occur during his reign. When finished he passes on a saved game to the next player (either by uploading it on the site or by mail) and posts the timeline in the game's thread so that other players are informed.
This can get really interesting as everybody has a diferent way of playing Civ. All the strategies are tryed out in one same game.

[Flatlander Fox]

Count me out of this particular game now, I am being forced to scale back my assaults on my fellow Civ 2 MP gamers

.

Good Luck!!!
