as a complete newb Id be for having graphs on just so I could have some idea of how I was stacking up against other (better) players. Im certainly not good enough to be able to abuse that information and it would be very instructive for me.
As there doesn't seem to be any other people interested in this game we should probably choose a smaller map. We can then wait for one or 2 more players or start anyways this weekend.
Cirlani, Yalun-To and Parganos all look nice, though all have a fair share of water and there are no water nations signed up yet. Out of those Parganos is the best looking so that is my proposal.
96h QH? Let's just set it to pure Quickhost until you've all recovered from New Year's.
(If you don't mind the suggestion. I'll be on a LAN-party from 27.12. to 30.12. so I won't be able to slow it down or pause it, better be on the safe side and just let it host whenever the turns are in until 2005.)
