Default New Network Game Starting

This is a restart of a recently-aborted game. All players must re-apply for positions by posting here. First person to claim a nation gets it. The game will run on Argitoth's 24/7 server, with these settings:

Independants: 6
Magic sites: 50
Victory: 60% of provinces on whichever map is selected
Map: Aran (4-6 players) or Desert Eye (7+ players)

The game will run Monday/Wednesday/Friday at the slowest, but players able to play at least one turn per day (especially at the beginning) are preferred. And please don't sign up if there's any chance at all that you'll be dropping out within the first 20 turns.

I'll try C'tis again. Maybe re-think the pretender, though.

And everyone remember:

PASSWORD PROTECT YOUR GOD!!!!

It would be nice to have a password repository, though - a person who had all the passwords in case of a drop. I'll volunteer, though ideally, it would be the host, initiator, or (most ideally) a non-player. For obvious reasons.

P.S. I assume (these were not stated) we are going normal richness, normal events. Anyone mind if we have a 15-slot hall of fame? I'd prefer 20 slots, but 15's the max=)

Yes, anything unstated was intended to be the default. I have no problem with a 15-entry HOF. Actually, come to think of it, I'd also prefer to have the score graphs turned off (to avoid getting depressed when I'm obviously losing).

That's a good idea, too. I actually LOVE the score graphs, but they reveal a little too much info for MP. Or a lot too much, perhaps. Do you still get to see them at the end of your game, when they are turned off?

I've changed my mind. I'll take Man, and Argitoth will be playing C'tis.
