SGOTM6 Celts - Sign Up Thread

Whomp: Civ-Complete does have PTW. However if you want to play conquests that is fine I'll move you. Just let me know for sure.

 

[Whomp]

Thanks mad-bax. Either will be fine then. I sometimes get messed up on the acronyms.

 

[AlanH]

Both Tomoyo and WillowBrook are provisionally placed on the Xteam Roster.

It would be helpful for me if the team captains of established teams can confirm the software version they will play as a team. I know most of them, but some will switch to conquests I presume.

OK. Mistfit has cried off, so Xteam, faithful to Vanilla v.1.29 to the end, will be:

DJMGator13
leif erikson
WillowBrook
Tomoyo
Gyathaar
AlanH

Here's a big welcome to our new players.

 

[Tubby Rower]

I'm not sure how the difficulty is determined for each team, but looking at the roster, it looks like I'm the only one with Regent attached to my name. I would hate for the rest of the team to have a ho-hum game on account of me. I'm up for the challenge of Emperor if everyone else is. (I'm doing pretty good in my 2 Monarch SG's)

The venerable team Bede:
Bede
eldar
Pied Piper
mabellino
Minute Man
Tubby Rower

 

[Mistfit]

I am a definite no for the next go 'round. I need to win that dang lotto to free up some more time. Whomever it is that gets on the XTeam be prepared to get deep in discussion. They are a very fun team to be on!

Don't sweat the difficulty level, Bede will help you get through the game just fine. Just don't let him revolt to a Republic

 

[Tubby Rower]

Don't sweat the difficulty level, Bede will help you get through the game just fine.

That's one of the reasons why I'm not worried about the difficulty level. Bede is in 2 of my SG's and is very insightful and patient.

 

[sekong]

After a further considering of the game set, I realize that forced-labor is the only option of rush-built. plus the time commited, I decide to withdraw.

Sorry.

 

[Wanderer]

Great, thanks for the link, Mad...

Hmm - looks like I had better get 1.29 - I just realized I don't have it, after my last forced machine re-build.

 

[mad-bax]

If 1.29f is a problem Wanderer I'll move you. No sweat.
Tubby Rower: Bede has PM'd me. He asked me to put you on his team.

 

[bed_head7]

I am a bit confused. Levels, I assume level of comfort, are marked in the column to the right of version. Demigod doesn't show anywhere, and some vanilla players have Sid as level. Is that just a ranking you assigned arbitrarily?

Also, I don't know if this is a result of the recent thread about improving SGOTMs, but some teams seem rather stacked, assuming that the above is correct. For instance, Team offa's and CDZ both are Deity+ on average, smackster and staff are Deity, while most other teams are around Emperor(edited from average - oops!). And considering all of this, why would grahamiam be moved to smackster's team from jeffelammar when the teams are more even with him still on jeffelammar.

Rule number 1 for a Bede game: There is no such thing as "ho-hum". If nothing else I can be counted on to forget the variant at least once....(vide M60's comment)
Rule number 2: This is for fun and comradery, not virtual walnettoes.

And I did indeed PM m-b specifically requesting a team of newcomers to the SGOTM.

 

[akots]

Yep, team Offa is a bit too strong. Hopefully they will play vanilla or PTW.

 

[Whomp]

It's an honor for those chosen. Pied Piper is a great teammate. You chose well Brother Bede.

 

[Tomoyo]

@bed_head: I assume that, although the teams seem stacked, it is better to let people choose their teams than to force them into other teams. I suppose if people have played in a SG together before, they will play better, (but I don't see how that's the case with the Xteam... ) and aren't all competitions stacked since some people play better than others?

 

[bed_head7]

Well, I was most curious about it when teams hadn't been specified here, as in the case of grahamiam.

 

[dmanakho]

Smacksters are established team but we needed an additional player.
Past 2 SGOTMs showed that it is very hard for unexperienced player to play for our team.
Grahamiam was invited to play for Team Smackster and final team roster was submitted to M-B.
Please do not blaim Mad Bax. These are internal Team Smackster affairs.

 

[Keith Larson]

Please keep me on team Peanut.

 

[bed_head7]

I am not blaming anyone, just trying to satisfy my curiosity and thirst for competition.

 

[Keath]

I'd like to join in on this game:

1. Monarch but can play higher levels.
2. Vanilla Civ III.
3. Are there any Mac teams out there who would like a new team mate?

I'm hoping to learn some things, have some fun and win, of course.
