I figure we can also use this thread as a team speculation thread. Here's our cast list:
BAT
EVG
CBR
GWT
COG
GCA
BAT
BAT is a French Civ site. In round one of the
ISDG, they were chosen over GWT by the big dogs in the game to take to round two. GWT complained that BAT was a bad ally. If we meet them early on, an alliance seems possible.
EVG
EVG is the site where the UN is hosted at. They have a small team, including Strider, a common CFCer. I imagine them being completely honorable allies should we form an alliance with them.
CBR
CBR is the treacherous Brazilian team. Guilty of having a president spy on CFC's team, I'm hoping that we take some ~ names and dish out some
. For me, this is personal. CFC
will triumph over these slimeballs, or we will die trying.
GWT
GWT is a German Civ site. They are the winners of the Multi-Site Demogame (MSDG - The PTW ISDG), and are quite excellent players, at least with Civ III. They also keep their word. Another excellent candidate for an ally.
COG
COG is the "Civilized Online Gaming Community." I had no idea this site even existed. Anyone else have any information/hunches about this site? Their UN representative is Zone, if that name sounds familiar at all.
Link to their site; ring any bells?
GCA
The Brazilians of the MSDG. No, they're not Brazilian, but they are a thorn in CFC's side. They invaded us early on in the MSDG, but we kicked them off our continent. In round one of the
ISDG, they attacked CDZ early on, but CDZ recruited CGN, knocking GCA out very early. This is game three for them, and they want revenge. They'd love to humiliate either ACS, CDZ, CFC, or CGN, and ACS, CDZ, and CGN aren't in their game. If we start near them, their aggressive, gambling nature guarantees an attack, which means we'll need a military.
The last three teams move on to the finals, which means we need two good allies. At this time, an alliance with GWT and either EVG or BAT seems like the best option. If we befriend GWT, they will not turn on us. EVG and BAT seem reliable, although I'd prefer EVG.
Other analysis?
