SGOTM 13 - Pre-game discussions

[Sun Tzu Wu]

The following prose by mabraham was accidentally attributed to me in Fluroscent's post:

If we were playing a large number of SGOTMs then it would all average out in the long run, but we don't have that luxury. So large sources of randomness (events) are not so desirable. Quests are similar, but not as large a source of randomness as you seemed to believe earlier in this thread, inasmuch as the same pool of quests are potentially available to all teams. However, we are both making the same general point...

Fluroscent, while I found the conclusions in your post perfectly reasonable, could you possibly correct attribution in it. I do not wish to take credit for another player's words.

On the subject of random events I still remember the SGOTM (can't remember which number but the Qin OCC) where Trash Team had Glib, 6 scientists and national epic for 90% chance GS, 10% chance GA.
First GP=GA
Second GP-GA
Third GP=GA
1:1000 chance but it happened, and it made a significant difference.

Alan, how about we get a St-Valentine's present and get our team threads, hmm?


Pretty, please?

Sign-in isn't closed yet.

Can I assume 24-48 hours after sign up?

Maybe.

You guys aren't making it easy to define the teams this time around

Sorry if I appeared to be trying to rush you. We all appreiciate the time and effort you and DS are putting into this.

I think we will all grit our teeth and wait till all the admin side of team allocation is complete and everyone is happy with the teams.

A few extra days wait is a small price to pay for a job well done.
