MadCradle2, 11 players, MA - Game On! - Page 2

We're up to eight. Shall we recruit some more or is everyone okay with eight? We can wait for more peeps if you all want or we can close it. In anycase we should start thinking about which age and map we are going to play, as well as whether we shall be playing random nations.

Okay ... MadCradle1 seems to have dissapeared. I am just going to repost a new game and hope it doesn't dissapear too. Please resubmit Pretenders ....

Personally, as I'm not terribly good at anything, random suits me fine. 8 people seems like a good enough start as any. Late Age seems to be pretty popular at the moment. So buck tradition and go Early? *Shrugs*

Just registered. First post, hurray.

If you're willing to go to nine or need an alternate please count me in. Was looking for a game to start. Any map, age, or nation is fine with me. I'm too new to know what's what.

I could give it a go if you decide to get more than 8 players.

That's one vote, for EA Random Nations. Anyone else?

Also I am going to keep adding people to the game list ... if we end up playing with only eight than we will just have alts or subs. If not we can always play a larger map. Either way is fine by me.

My vote is random everything except the map, as I'm not really familiar with any nation or age yet

I agree that we shouldn't use a straight random map -- they tend not to be balanced out of the box in terms of number and quality of neighbors for start positions. There are a bunch of maps now that people have lavished attention on.

I'm fine with any age, and random or semi-random nation selection. I think players should be allowed a small opt-out list, or be able to state certain preferences (like no water).

The only thing that is important to me is to have a map that is visually pleasing. It's best to play on a random map, but since I don't believe anyone would like to mess around with adjusting starting positions, we could take some standard map take can fit 11 players like Cradle.

I vote for random nation assignement with an opt-out list as well. Regarding age, I vote it not be EA, since my two MP games so far were EA.
