I notice there are two versions Primea. The Primea_SR is better, with semi-random starts.

If we go with 8 players and play the Primea_SR map with 10 fix land starts, wouldn't that mean that some players will end up next to vacant start positions and more territory to expand into?

If we go with the other Primea random map, then in theory our start positions should be spread more evenly when the AI creates the game... right?

Or, I notice there is a fixed start position 7 player Ethereal Squirrels map.
[edit]Argh, just noticed there are no links for this map version on Llamaserver.
We could just go with a 7 player, random start, Land of Ethereal Squirrels and the players we have now.

Default Re: Smote Mightily - Noob to Intermediate - Starting (7/7)

I notice that turns are not due in at Llamaserver until Monday.

So, weekends don't count towards the 24 hour time limit then?
I tried looking around but couldn't find anything in the FAQ.

Being in IRC, i was just told this is the reason:

[20:50:42] Calawank: Rag, go tell those Smote Mightly guys that the llamaserver automatically sets all first turns to 48 hours. And then after that it's 24hours
[20:50:57] Calawank: that's why the deadline is monday
