I'd like to join ya'll for my second MP game. Even with the soul contract restriction, I'd like to take Abyssia.

60% VPs is an excellent choice. Anybody who has that many already has the game won anyway. It prevents the game from dragging out beyond the fun point (which often happens on games with standard victory setting). Games without a victory setting tend to never actually finish.

Just be very careful when selecting the proper VP number to win. If you check the one-per-capitol box, you must add one VP per player to the total of all the others or you will end up with too low a winning number hard coded into the game.

I have updated the game post and asked reverend to start the server for uploading. So we should be able to start soon. He will post ip and so on.

About map. I proposed we switch to Parganos, but this didn't seem to get any support. So we do Zen's Cradle. With no water nations it is not quite as huge as it might be.

Server is up and ready for your pretenders.

IP www.pnd-clan.de
Port 31430

As soon as all pretenders are uploaded I'll restart the server and you can start the game.

ehhh...
I accidentally clicked Tien Chi when I was tring to upload my pretender, so Ive got pretenders in Tien Chi and Machaka. Sorry bout that. Is there any way I can delete my Tien Chi pretender before the game starts?

No, the Tien Chi player has to re-upload his pretender.

This is a known "problem" with Dom2, I hope there will be a better way of controlling upload in Dom3.

There is no Tien Chi player though. I guess the server will need to be restarted.

Edit: Nope, no restart.

We could put it up to a vote. I vote keeping them banned. So its all up to rylen I guess.

My general rule on changing rules in mid-game is that everyone must agree, so I think you have the power to veto the change, Tauren.
