Also, one vote for no mods.

Free-for-all (so not a disciples game).

Is it clearer now?

Yes

I'll take MA Man.

I'd be fine with Worthy Heroes.

I'll take MA C'tis. I'd be happy with all proposed settings.

I don't mind one way or the other about Worthy Heroes. I don't have experience with how Cataclysm timers play out in multiplayer so I don't feel strongly about it either.

I suggest that we also have # of globals be a function of number of players we get. Maybe 5 slots for 6 players, + 1 for every two players beyond that we get?

Gimme Sceleria.

Worthy Heroes is cool and I already have it installed, so I'm for it.

Bandar Log

Updates are in bold in the original post.

It would be nice to get started over the weekend and get the first few turns in. Can anyone wrangle a sixth player? Alternatively I can generate a map with an unused 6th start position, although this would be unfair to whomever has fewer neighbors.

Nevermind stretching myself too much.

Put me in for Marignon

That's 6!

Grek - yeah or nay on Worthy Heroes?

I generated the map and uploaded it here:
http://www.llamaserver.net/createDom5Game.cgi

The name of the map is Denizens1C. It was the prettiest of the three maps I generated.

I'll open the game for pretender submission in the morning.

I won't wish you good luck, because that's bad luck and anyway you are all doomed!

P.S. doomed!

I can't download the map, the link goes to this thread.

Oh, oops.

Try this?

Doomed!
--DrP

Nay on worthy heroes because I am lazy and don't want to download shit.

In the game settings, you have it as:

Number of level 1 thrones: 3
Number of level 2 thrones: 3
Number of level 3 thrones: 3

Surely those should be 2 each?

Oops. You're right!

EDIT: and fixed.

Waiting on angelfromanotherpin for Sceleria, then I'll start it, unless I made another mistake with the settings .

And it's started. Good luck everyone! You are all DOOMED!

I'll turn the game timer on as soon as the first turn has hosted, in case there are technical difficulties.

gmail put my pretender acknowledgement in Spam, so if you haven't gotten the first turn, check your spam folder.

Can you even call this a Denizens' game if Frank is not on it being attacked on turn 5?

I'll drag him into the Densciples game when I start that.

Hello, delicious neighbors, Man and Sceleria!

Comments like that make me wish I had found even a single province that produces scouts.

The communion sends our greetings and congratulations to our neighbors as well: Bandar Log, C'tis, and Sceleria.

Although your doom is pre-ordained by the True God, Knife Bright Insight, such a reckoning may reasonably be delayed through diplomatic measures.
