60 Player MegaGame Discussion Thread

You should probably combine the flags and 60-nations into a single mod. I was thinking of doing that myself after the patch came out.

Is it as simple and cutting and pasting the contents of the mod into one? <<<< Knows nothing about mods.

That should work, but it'd be cleaner to cluster all the mods to each nation # in the same place.

It shouldn't take long, though.

All players will have to have a copy of the mod before they can pull down their first file.

I was going to merge the mods also but I was waiting for it to include all 80 slots. Should work for the standard 60 nations though. (well except for Tir na N'og which should be in the game by the time you start)

Holy crap. I'd like to be part of this just to say that I was. In any case, I'm guessing there'll be a market for replacements. I'd definitely suggest waiting for the patch, what with some nasty bugs in the current version.

I would like to play too. It would be great experience.

This game both fascinates and scares me.

I would suggest some kind of managed nation assignment. It would be a pain to have to read through five pages of forum posts to figure out which nations were taken and which weren't (if you were one of the later sign-ups). And you know people will make honest mistakes and double-claim nations. But if you go first-come, first-serve, I would suggest you open it up on a weekend, so people who can't check the forums while at work have a chance at not being last.

If there is someone out there with too much time on their hands, they could go through all the games currently active on this forum and count up how many different active players we have. I wonder how close that number is to 60.
