There can be only one - no out of game diplomacy.
Now taking signups for a MP game hosted on the llamaserver (thanks llamabeast!). This is play by email, though I�ve got some scripts which automate this to a large degree (moving turn files around and handling the emailing) for windows if anyone wants to use them.
# of players � at least 10 to start, we�ll fill up all the slots if we have enough interest. The more the merrier.
Game settings:
Map - Alexandria

Era � late
Score graphs � off
Renaming � on
indies - 9
Everything else default
House rules �
The only diplomacy allowed is through the in-game interface. The idea is that this will drastically reduce player�s ability to coordinate and make diplomacy less effective. I�ve got nothing against diplomacy, just thought it�d be fun to try. I�ll make no effort to enforce this, but anyone who is contacted for diplomacy out of game should post such to this thread for public ridicule. One exception � you can post anything you want to this thread, so any �open� diplomacy (ie �Mictlan is gonna win if we don�t all gang up on him!�, �I want to trade for air gems�) is fair game. Heck, you could even coordinate attacks if you�re ballsy enough to do so publicly.
All�s fair in love and war- everything else allowable in-game is valid. All exploits, bugs, etc. are considered fair play. Everyone�s on the same page here, though I�m open to suggestions of game breaking exploitable bugs that should specifically be banned. I�m the final judge of this, and I�ll only ban something if you can convince me that not doing so will make the game significantly less fun. Nothing I know of comes to mind.
Hosting schedule-
24 hours until at least two players request extending it, then we'll add 24 hours to the timer every time two requests happen.
2 consecutive stales result in being set AI (my discretion). Hopefully anyone leaving will find a replacement or at least set themselves to AI.
I am open to suggestions for any house rules or settings changes, realizing that it�s my game and I�ll end up picking whatever sounds like the most fun to me...
