No, I meant standard as the game offers it! What does everybody taking part else say?
I figured you meant standard MP settings - which as Norfleet wrote, tends to be Indy-6, Sites-50, normal research, normal richness, common events, and usually (but not always) Hall of Fame 15.
I'd lean towards those settings - Indy strength 3 is ... single ply tissue paper.  It's a very easy setting that is, I think, meant to ease newcomers into the game, as they don't get their initial armies slaughtered right away.
So - as one of the players, I vote for the standard MP settings. I'll play either way - Indys-3 simply means less time chasing down routed satyrs in the early game.
