If I may make an observation - the pythium/marignon team seems a little strong. |

Re: Revenge of Pimping - Sign Up
As nations or as play skill? The assignments are, as I said originally, random  .

Re: Revenge of Pimping - Sign Up
Be happy that Micah is not LA Ermor...I've been on the receiving end of that and it was rather unpleasant

Re: Revenge of Pimping - Sign Up
A few comments on how trading positions works - supposing that I didn't like my team (to which I was assigned at random), and supposing that Micah didn't like his team, we could trade *with each other*.
So I would get the Pythium/Marignon team (and which nation I got, I could work out with nozshand), and Micah would get the Mictlan/Abysia team with Folket.
If Micah and I wanted to be on the same team like in the first team game, either I'd need to trade with nozshand or Micah would need to trade with Folket. Micah and I couldn't decide to be on the same team on our own - we could've done things that way, but I decided that random assignment was more fair.
Furthermore, you don't take the nations with you when you trade! The nation-based teamings were picked for game balance (and I think I did a good job, despite all the *****ing.)

Re: Revenge of Pimping - Sign Up
Can't please everyone, all the time, Dr. P.
I think random pairings are less important than roughly even pairings. I have essentially no knowledge of Patala - but rather than kvetch further about it, I will simply open the position up.
Best wishes all!

Re: Revenge of Pimping - Sign Up
You could have had C'tis, instead, but that's aside from the point.
I'll pull the Patala/C'tis team, which is the weakest, I believe, and make one of the players an alternate?

Re: Revenge of Pimping - Sign Up
I like both Patala and C'tis; I'd trade with you if you wanted to Chris.

Re: Revenge of Pimping - Sign Up
Okay, here are the *new* team assignments:
Okay, here are the team assignments:
Mictlan/Abysia - DrPraetorious, Folket
Pythium/Marignon - Micah, nozshand
Atlantis/Bogarus - Nikelaos, revolution
Man/R'yeh - ossa, AreaofEffect

T'ien Ch'i/Jomon - Psisoldier, Ershalim
Alternate:
James243
Sorry James243 about that, sorry Nikelaos for reassigning you.
To clarify! Each team can split the nations however they wish -if the team-mates cannot agree, I'll flip a coin. The order above doesn't reflect the order in which you get your nations, so I could be Abysia and Folket could be Mictlan, for example.
You probably want to contact your team-mate over the course of the next week.
