Greek tragedies, like Shakespearean, usually ended just by everyone who mattered dying.

Pride cometh before the fall is a bit more christian thing, at least that's my impression.

Right, pointless but harmless, so lets let the two team captains decide and post. If they want it longer, well then so be it. You, me, and everyone else, can concentrate on other things in the meantime.

Ooops, seems I duplicated a start for the noob team, after 153 should be 154, not 153. The following post replaces the current start location post.

As to team captains, there is only one noob team captain. And that is [censored]. :p

By captains he was referring to the noob team captain and the vet team captain, which septimius has been assuming is TheDemon.

We run things by committee, but I don't think anyone objects to a 5-turn no cap attacks NAP. Let's institute it.

Bandar Log objects, vehemently. We propose that none be allowed to attack there capital ever. And that all should offer some food as sacrifice.

Very well. Once the game begins, both teams will refrain from any hostile actions upon the other team's capital for a period of 5 turns.

Rdonj, some have asked whether you'll be hosting/admining a Noobs vs. Vets: Graduates game(s) in the future, featuring small teams of noob alumni matched up with equal numbers of vets. 4vs4, or 5vs5, etc. If such a game happens, I'd recommend a map with the opposing capitals spread very far apart to enable proper development and buildup prior to the epic clash. All other setting though, I'd assume would be normal of course.

Hmm, I don't know. I could do that, but I think it would be best to wait on such a thing for a couple months at least. Most of the vets from this series of games are a bit burnt out on them it seems, so I think such games would get a better response if there was a bit of a cooldown period.

I'm also thinking it might be better to go with the suggestion stretch had of a game with vet team captains and one or two noob allies, they would make for great learning games for noobs vs vets alumni, and probably be quite fun to play.

If someone else wanted to create another noobs vs vets game though I would be happy to admin it for them.

So...

When are we starting? I see 4/6 of vets have uploaded pretenders and none of the team noob. Sept, maybe some deadline for pretender uploading would be a good thing to get this thing going? After all, the game settings have been set and people have known their nations for sure for days now.
