results of random selection:

apricorn: dutch & korea
zurichuk: carthage & england
dogboy: greece & germany
predesad: byzantine & portugal

will set up game & post settings

only change is turn order, since i am setting up game instead of map maker, my turn will be 1st, then apricorn, zurichuk, dogboy. really same turn order, just starts w/ me instead of apricorn.

should get game set up & sent to apricorn & then as long as this is fine w/ everyone we'll b on our way.

if the overall set up is fine, but a minor change or 2 is needed no big deal, ill start it over, but right now wold really like 2 getit going, hope its not premature
 
okay, game is started, turn sent 2 apricorn, zurichuk, ur email is not listed in ur profile, although we can use the email tab in your profile i suppose, could u please either post / pm ur email 2 me, i will pm the other player's emails 2 u.

Game settings:
standard size, continents, 70% h2o, restless barbs
normal climate, temperate, 4 billion
all victory conditions including wonder, regent difficulty
AP on, cultural conversions on, no culturally linked starts

any questions, complaints, comments let me know, want 2 make this a fun game for all. btw, i said it earlier, but ur not forced 2 play the setup like it is, if u dont like this we can try something different, just hoping this would be suitable, and ifit was, wanted 2 have it started

turn order:

predesad: byzantine, portugal
apricorn: netherlands, korea
zurichuk: carthage, england
dogboy: greece, germany

used following format for names, 1st civ is predesad sr, 2nd civ is predesad jr, same for each of you

*note: with locked alliance feature, you can conduct diplomacy between your civs from the start of the game, even though you have not made contact
 
just thought of another way 2 set up game which would put our allied civs close 2 each other. dont necessarily want 2 start over, butif the game isnot satisfactory i am willing. i could go into the editor and edit each civs culture group so that each one's allied civs are in the same culture group, but a different one for each player, then turn on culturally linked starting locations. just let me know what u guys think.

we have a run on seafaring civs, which disappoints me, my least desired trait, but i've been trying lately to switch up things so glad i can at least try out two civs i've never played before w/ traits i dont ever play. should we all agree 2 continue this game, i recommend that dogboy remains a landlubber or else us seafarers will surely run (or sail?) all over you.
 
No, lets not start over, but play the game as is (I havent seen turn yet but will play it tonight)
Predesad, will om you a better email address to use for me.

EDIT: Actually you used the correct address the first time so dont worry about that!
 
sent email to pm, however here is a coded version

before i play my turn, what patch (if any) are we playing on, bearing in miind 1.00, 1.02, 1.12, 1.13 and 1.15 are floating around
 
I play 1.12. From my understanding, they made it so any patch would work. I can't verify this though. I wanted to wait until they "fixed" all the bugs before getting the next patch.
 
Just thought of something...if you got my e-mail from my profile, you need to check again. I moved recently and have updated my e-mail address there. But anyway, here it is

Well, two words sum up my starting position - swamp and desert!
 
We made it through a turn!!!!! As for my starting positions, at least they are both on fresh water. But plains and desert, what is that all about?
 
well, i assume everyone is fine w/ this game since turn came back to me, and i passed it on. my start is not bad, its not good, but its not bad.

Meliflous finally got back 2 me & recommended a site where 'someone' would b happy 2 make a map, guess that's not needed now if we're going w/ this game.

apricorn & dogboy, i already had ur emails from arrogants 8player game, zurichuk, posted & pmed to me his email, which i passed on so everyone in the game should have each other's email

good luck everyone, although if u need luck u might as well get out while u still can
 
I actually lied about my starting position. Here is a pic of my Greece starting position. My German starting position is even better. I told you it was bad because I wanted you guys to be overconfident. I hope you can forgive me for trying to deceive you. Anyway, best of luck to everyone:love:

Well, it won't let me insert pic. Says file is too big even though I know it's not. Very frustrating.
 
Note to self, Dogboy of the Greeks is a known liar & a cheat ... and his son, Dogboy jr isnt any better
 
Do you really expect me to believe that's your real start in 'this' game? Hey, u shoulda threw in a luxury 2, and not so many wheat, but more cows.
 
The Koreans had finally settled. Many months of traversing swamps had taken its toll on the settlers and although the location of the new Settlement was far from perfect, being surrounded by flood plains and swamp, they could go no further without rest. But the fledgling civilization faced an uphill struggle, one third of the population were rife with disease and work building the new City of Seoul would be very slow indeed.
 
Didnt receive the turn today. Any hold up?
