Count me in.

As this is a newbie game, I think we should keep every option available - we should be able to learn how to horde, how to use Arcane Nexus, etc. So, I vote against the "no hoarding mod"

Diplomacy should be no binding - if you want to show everybody how much you honor your agreements, then feel free to post your alliances on the forum. However, I believe it should be like real life - sometimes you want everybody to know who your allies are... sometimes you don't.

I also belive we should play with the default settings - I may be wrong, but I think most games are played with just small variations of the default settings (CB mod being the exception); so, it's better to learn how to play well with the default settings, before play with such a drastic change as the 100 multiplier. Keep it default.

I'm gonna put in my 2 cents here and second Lama's suggestion about the hording items. They add nearly nothing of worth to the game and have considerable drawbacks. Contrary to Mule's comment about "learning to horde" there really isn't any complexity, skill, or difficult choices involved in hording, especially for clams.

Additionally, while I don't speak for the vets as a group, I have heard a lot of people mention that they never intend to join another game where the horde items are non-unique, so if this game is meant as a training exercise for new players I think they might be better served learning how the game goes without the horde items, since it's the wave of the future. =)
