Re: Voting so far
 

Only, its not exploitation, its just smart teamwork!
Alliances are very powerful, but thats the whole idea!

Final Set up
 

Ok the votes are in enough to determine so here is the rules set.

Game summary
Rules standard except:-
Indep 5
Site frequency 50
HoF 10
Map – Inland
Score graphs - on
Staling – let your team mates know your password to avoid staling
Nations – No Water nations. No Ermor. No Ulm Master Alchemist .
Each team will chose a short Pantheon name
Your pretender name should include your Pantheon name
(or some other code to show teamness readily – same initial letter etc)

Team A
Pickles
Aku
Boron
The Panther
Tauren13

Perhaps:- AN Other

Team B
Agrajag
Alexti
Cheezeninja
Yvelina
Lex

Perhaps - Tuidjy

Mr Sheap volunteered to host & to pick random nations so please Sheap pick 2 sets of 6 nations & allocate them to team A & team B. You can post them here.

If we have 5 players there will be a spare.
We can then allocate nations to team members.

Once this is done Zen can put them on the inland map in a suitable manner 7 we can start hopefully in the middle of the week.

Thanks again to Zen & Sheap for your offers.

If anyone has strong objections please let me know.
Indeps follow the Panther's very fine suggestion based on the close vote & thus will probably satisfy nooone!

Re: Final Set up
 

We need to leave our Emails for easier team communication!
Imagine what would happen after the random teams are "released":
"I claim Abysia!"
"No! You can't!"
"I said so first"
"When two people fight, the thrid gets to keep the prize"
"BLAH BLAH BLAH!!! QRRBIRRBRREL!!!?!!?!!"

So we need to write our Emails down for inter-team communication, see what everyone wants and make a decision (also regarding the pantheon name)

I'll go first guy3pwood (et) hotmail (dot) com.

Re: Final Set up
 

I agree with the principle but sort it out via PM or something not here. I hereby appoint you team captain of Team B so you should sort out your team's communications & have final say on nation distribution. (Can I do that - well I just did)

Our team is already in pretty good communication BTW.

I am trying to remember where you name comes from - is it Pyrates or Monkey Island or something else?

Pickles

Re: Final Set up
 

PMs are not a very comfortable means of communication, but if everyone else on my team thinks PMs are better, we'll communicate via PMs (So send your votes, ppl!).

Agrajag is from "The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy" series, he is a nasty creature that has reincarnated many times and every single time Arthur Dent accidentaly killed him.
He is made up of every animal he reincarnated to and is quite nasty and seeks revenge on Arthur.
Although... Monkey Island rules! =P
I finished every MI besides 2, and Im working on that now (I'll finish 3 and 4 again later).

Re: Final Set up
 

I have my PM's set to email me directly when i recieve them, so unless the forum changeover has changed that reaching me should not be a problem. I'm going to email you anyway Agrajag so you have my email if pms dont work.

Re: Final Set up
 

Sorry argajag
I meant:
a) send out your email address other than in a public
forum eg via PM - though I see you code yours
b) guybrush threepwood

Pickles

Re: Final Set up
 

Now Im confused about what you mean (???)
And "Guybrush Threepwood! Mighty Pirate!"
Also, check this out, I wrote down the entire "How much wood" line of conversation:

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

A woodchuck could chuck no amount of wood since a woodchuck can't chuck wood.

But if a woodchuck could chuck and would chuck some amount of wood, what amount of wood would a woodchuck chuck?

Even if a woodchuck could chuck wood, and even if a woodchuck would chuck wood, should a woodchuck chuck wood?

A woodchuck should chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood, as long as a woodchuck would chuck wood.

Oh. Shut up.

EDIT: Typo, I guess even TYPING the thing is difficult =P

Re: Final Set up
 

Argajag
Your name in your email is guy3pwood or somesuch so - where is that from?

Pickles

Re: Final Set up
 

OH!

Indeed you were right, it IS Guybrush Threepwood!

Want a Monkey Combat Walkthrough I made? =P
