Team Pitboss - BTS

[SilentConfusion]

How do you know when it's your turn?
and what happens if you don't take your turn?

With Simultaneous turns you can play your turn anytime during the turn (usually around 24 hours long). When the last person finishes their turn or the 24 hours is up the next turn starts, then again you have the full time to make your moves. I think your units just don't move, unless you had them on automove if you miss a turn.

Wait, in the instructions it never actually said load the BTS Pitboss, if I understood correctly the instructions mean load up the normal BTS. I thought they were two separate files?

Maybe I'm just embarrassing myself.

I am finding out hosting this will be tougher than I thought. Can someone else volunteer to host please, sorry.

 

[Gingi]

I MIGHT be able to host. I will post back with final decision within 8 hours.

 

[remake20]

I think I got it . Try logging in with instructions from the OP.

 

[remake20]

I can't connect !!!! but it should be up.

 

[nabaxo]

I'm confused? Why are we running two, almost identical pitboss games? :S

 

[remake20]

This one is more friendly, find out how to play, and the other is more competitive.

 

[fireflames]

I can't connect !!!!

Neither me. Sad face.

 

[remake20]

I don't think it's gonna work, who will host? and how do I trash it?

 

[nabaxo]

Yes but why the indentical civs?

I plan on hosting an internal pitboss after I move, but you guys will have to wait for that. (Sadly, the move didn't happen today :/ ).

 

[remake20]

Want to host this one?

 

[nabaxo]

Don't know, I wanted a game with restricted leaders.

 

[Gingi]

Ok, I WILL host this one. The reason that made me do this was seeing all of remake's s.

So the lesson learned is whenever you want someone else to volunteer to do something, the face works better than anything else.

I don't know how to trash the old one. So, uhh. Yeah. But at least we can play! I'll post back very soon as soon as I know it is working and online.

This one is more friendly, find out how to play, and the other is more competitive.

I don't think the other one is any less about learning. As I understand it the other one is going to be also open and a learning experience.

No, I remember seeing Sommer post that that one will be normal and completely competitive. I tried to find the post to quote it but I couldn't.

What type of map and game settings should I make this one?

 

[fireflames]

Did we ever figure out how to make this work?

 

[Gingi]

Did we ever figure out how to make this work?

Remake knew how to make it work; he just couldn't host it. As in, he couldn't find the time to, or he knew he might have to turn his computer off or something like that. So he explained to me how to host it, and I'm going to do it instead.

I can get it working, I'm just waiting for people to say their map / options preferences. I've already started making the game, I'm just at the point where you enter the map type and options stuff. So I'm going to finish making this in 4-5 hours. At that time I'm going to go with whatever you guys say you want here. If you guys don't say anything, I'm going with:

• Snaky Continents (because that was a popular in the overall team discussion)
• Large World Size (remember, 11 civs)
• Temperate Climate
• Medium Sea Level
• Normal Speed
• Simultaneous Turns (I think Sequential makes more sense for the actual MDG while Simultaneous is OK for this one)
• 24 hour Turn Timer
• Unrestricted Leaders (obviously, otherwise almost everyone's leader choices would be impossible)
• Normal Barbarians.

Yeah OK.
