The Coalition of Citizens

new player when it comes to demo games, but a veteran of Civ games... so you choose.
 
New player.
 
Okay, in an attempt to make this thread more then just a sign-up fest. (I couldn't think of anything more interesting then sign-up fest. Ahh, give me a break! It's way to early in the morning.)

Okay, for everyone who's signed up as a Newer Player I ask that you read the FAQ. It shouldn't take to long to read, although that's coming from someone who can read a 700 page book in less than 4 hours.

Anyway, inside of the FAQ, is there any more questions that you would like to ask? Or is there a current question on there, that you don't really understand?

Also, Welcome everyone!
 
sign me up as a vet.
 
Well, even though I have had a lot to say about the Civ4 Democracy game - I am still a new player. So sign me up as such. :)

By the way, what was the book?

At 20 seconds a page - it must have had a lot of pictures. :lol: :D

haha, I was wondering if someone would realize that.

It was actually an SAT Prep book, had a ton of charts and graphs. If you want to qualify those as "pictures" then your mostly right. I didn't bother even looking at them.
 
I r TeH nEwB.

*cough* all joking aside, I just discovered this forum a week ago. Thought this was a cool idea, so here I am. Got a question for you.

Does each 'citizen' get his own city? (eventually) In the registry sign up, there's the spot for putting in 'your city name'. Is that just for city naming ideas, or what?

No, each citizen does not get there own city. If we keep with the first come, first serve basis, then most likely the first 20 people who signed up will get to name a city inside of the game. Anyone who singed up pass those 20 are unlikely to get to name one.
 
Civ 4 makes it hard to run large empires with something similar to an upkeep cost, so if our nation gets that big that we are likely going to 'burn out'.
 
Please sign me in. Newbie here :D

By the way, I don't think being labeled as a newbie is all that bad - it even gives you some previleges (spelling? :O) like people having lower expectations of you. :D Being called a newbie is never instulting for me.
 
Welcome RaRe and ChrisMDP.

eh, it just always strikes me as insulting. I guess it's just a personal flavor thing, but I have no idea how I would react to it if I was in your poistion. So I'll just stick to using "Newer Player" for awhile. Untill I get to know everyone good enough to start insulting them by nicknames. :crazyeye:

Anyway, does anyone have any questions? Ask anything you want to! Hell, if your afraid of sounding stupid, just ask me VIA PM. God knows I've made some pretty stupid choices throughout my life time. Hell, I'm sure a week from now I'm going to regret ever saying this.

Of course, I'm still young.. so I'm allowed to be stupid. Atleast for another year.
 
Alrighty.. ^^

So are there civil wars in a demogame?
Like let's say we have the citizens of a particular city and they would like to be independent so they rebel... and after their coup succeed they get to control every asect of their city - their produced military units, religion, and production. Or if it's a nationwide rebel of a bunch of criminals and/or socialist who wants to seize power.

If yes, how does that takes place?

Are there generals in the game? Like we can elect a general for our 3 archers to take control of them. Or do the president/prime minister/king/queen/etc. handles everything in-game?

How long does a demo game last?

By your best estimates, how long would it take before the game starts?

Is there a chatroom where all demo players hang out? (Not exactly #Civfanatics, but more of a specific chatroom for this demogame.)

Are there demogames where there are different civilizations controlled by different citizens? Like a multiplayer demogame in a large scale as this?

Hehehe, sorry for the list of questions but I am really new at this. ;)

There has been only one so far, and it was roleplayed. Basically it was the IDA (Inter-Departmental Alliance.. which was ran by me :lol: ) pitted against the MA (Military Alliance).

The MA was formed of the Military Department, one Province, and the Foreign Affairs department.

The IDA was formed of the Science Department, Trade Department, One Province, and the Culture Department.

If you want anymore information, I'll dig back into the forums and see if I can find it for you. Just ask.

Usually the leader of the military is the "General" and manages all offensive and defensive units. The other aspects in-game are handled by other elected officials (Trade, Science, Culture, Foreign Affairs, and Domestic). Although, this is likely to change in the Civ4 demogame.

Generally about 6 months, it has varied from 4 to 8 months though.

RaRe said:

Most likely it will start at the New Year, there is no way we will beable to start in November.

The Civ3 demogame chatroom is #turnchat, however it only seems logical to have a Civ4 demogame chatroom. I'll have to create one.

Yes, there called a Multi-Team Demogame. There isn't a Civ4 MTDG yet, but there is currently a Civ3 one. You can sign up for the Civ3 MTDG here. I recommend joining team TNT :).
