Yeah, as IF!

If you are serious, though, I could be honest about it BUT editing the map to make player placement would be an unfair advantage...what with my photographic memory and all .

I'm serious, but maybe would be better to set out a call for a mapmaker. What about starting a separate thread for the grudge-match since I believe few people read the challenge thread every day (should help keep Gandalph P happy too )

Could also be fun to post some updates (and a bit of trashtalk) during the game

Nothing wrong with a bit of fun, I suppose...though I expect we will be tromped so fast there won't be any need for writing except for the epitaph.

I don't think Mark would mind a new thread...and I sent a PM to Asmala. I think he gets off work soon. Or course, he might be busy with something else.

Heh guys, I can host it for you if you are willing to risk a complete newb in the case of setting up a game and map and the like....

[primitive]

Thanks, BTW

Since I am already the subject of 2 grudges , I hope there isn't a 3rd one . Besides, you're getting your satisfaction in our KOTH game...no need to find another way to get even...say...putting my starting location in a nebula .

Seriously, though, with these basic steps:

(1) Start new game
(2) Turn off ruins
(3) Gen map over and over till you find one as I described below
(4) Save it off
(5) Edit to place specific players (according to how they joned the game)
(6) Save the map and load it when actually creating the game

(7) The info on PBW is fairly straightforward on how to do it...create the game
(8) Add each of us (under admin) if you want to be nice
(9) Wait for all empires to be uploaded
(A) Follow the instructions on PBW (and settings in this thread) to start the game
