But, since this is mostly for fun and learning, and less about who is the most skilled civ player, I don't have any major objections. What do you think Cal (and Scooter and Old Harry and Cheater Hater)?
I need your approval to be a DedLurker for team DMOC & Dick76.
I've been spoiled so far. I've read most of the teams treads. I've read LurkerTread. I have some inside knowledge about map, your starting positions and plans (cant exactly remember details though), reaction of veteran players in LurkerTread to your plans.
I am promisse to keep this knowledge to myself, and put any word in D&D tread solely based on current situation, not on my spoiler knowledge.
Of course, if you agree with me as a DedLurker, I will stay away from your treads or LurkerTread (stopped reading your treads some time ago actually). My expirience in civ is limited, and I have zero expirience in MP.
I've ask this question in LurkerTread and 2 veterans said its ok if players ok with it.
If anyone of the players says 'NO', I'll stay a global lurker and wait for my first MP game to come.

Anyway, we're up, and Isabella/Mehmed are both available. I think both would be great, but my vote is for Isabella. Such a flexible and generally awesome leader.
Yeah, both options sound great. I would normally say Isabella for sure, but after reading Seven's analysis of the Org trait I'm a little more conflicted. Caledorn, do you have a strong preference? If not, I think Isabella will lead us.

Let's go with Isabella.
As the Americans learned so painfully in Earth's final century, free flow of information is the only safeguard against tyranny. The once-chained people whose leaders at last lose their grip on information flow will soon burst with freedom and vitality, but the free nation gradually constricting its grip on public discourse has begun its rapid slide into despotism. Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master. - Commissioner Pravin Lal, "U.N. Declaration of Rights"
Isabella is a good choice--and I've never played a duel on such a big map before
 (I kid, I kid--there's a lot of game left to be played, but Parkin appears to have the experience edge, and we have an army to double and triple-check everything--and seriously, Napoleon when Mehmed is still available? (among others))) Now we have spoiler violations and spoiled lurkers too? Has there been a rules/ethics violation that hasn't happened/been brought up in this game yet?

Also I approve of Isabella. I know you'll be relieved to hear that.

What the heck is going on in the Tech thread?

I think it's from so many people playing who have not been on RB for long.

I think she fits in with our goal for this game of "remaining flexible". This is an area where both Caledorn and I struggle so I hope you guys can help us maximize the use of spi.

Maga told me they're using the book as their theme and there has been role playing about it in her thread. All I can think is " thank God this isn't Sulla's tech thread or these guys would be in trouble! |
