Taking away competition would literally destroy the point.
Who's interested in a PTW Multiplayer Demogame?

Yeah, I'm back
Well, maybe we could start out w/ a default alliance, but if they start encroaching on our territory too much or we have to tell them to leave for the up-teenth-time, we kick some butt. If we agree to always be peaceful, may as well just do a combinded nation in a single player game.
I like the idea of demogame vs. elite player tho. Kinda like that thing MSN did a few years back w/ Kasparov vs. the world... and the world LOST.(and then the claims of cheating came tho....)

Hmmmm.. a lot of interesting ideas here.
Spies- ultra cool! let's face it, info leaks are a way of life on most, if not all, countries. It will depend on each players (by player I mean the entire civilization) values to spy or not to spy. But the game makes it available, let's not stip it off the table too hastly. If both players agree to the posibility of spying and counter-espionage, it makes the game a lot more interesting.
Aliances- interesting but boring. An aliance very early in the game could make us a bit laizy, since we wouldn't have to worry too much about the other player. Aliances should be made when there is something to gain (or loose) and not just for comfort. Anyway, to deny us the pleasure of actually holding a war campaign against another human being and not just the oh, so predictable AI would be a shame.
National security - An honor code would be ideal. Ideals are very hard to reach. Someone mentioned a password, that would be the best alternative. We would need to have, however, real life embassies on the other's player forum. That's something to think about.
Anyway, those are my two phoenaticans worth. I vote yeah! let's do it! after it's aproved let's get into the intriquesies (sp?) of it.

Sounds like good fun to me.
Passwords sounds like a good solution
Spying will add a little more to the game
- though - only one spy per nation active
And there will of course be one more governmental position: Ambassador - which should be the only one allowed to post in another nation's demogame forum

I've made a new discussion thread in the Citizen forum, since it's obvious there's interest in it.
