Here we go! Sorry little later than planned.
You have 10 points
7: FIN, EXP
6: India
5: Inca, CRE
4: IMP, ORG, HRE
3: SPI, IND, Zulu, Sumeria
2: CHA, AGG, PHI, Ottomans/Maya/Byzantium (with War ellie ban)
1: Civs that start with Agriculture Tech unless otherwise stated, Greece/Rome
0: America, Native America, Civs without agri not already stated
-1: PRO arabia, germany, celts
Please post picks in threads, unless major objections I feel that duplicates should be allowed within reason, because quite a few civs have specific point costs to try to open up the field from the usual suspects.
Map taster info - fully hand crafted. SMALL 40x40 (based off small doughnut script if you wish to generate a map that size) VERY rich in resources. Stone/Marble are present but not easily reached early. Highly balanced but not mirrored/duplicated. FLAT map. IMMORTAL difficulty (it is very rich!) Moderate amount of water, but you could easily get away without a navy. GLH NOT banned. Scout starts for all.
As per your choices, no barbs, quick speed
Unusual tiles note - to spice up naval encounters, there are a few jungle/forest tiles hidden in the seas - these will give a defense bonus. Think of them as rich but dangerous to attack into lagoons, or places on the high sea that are rather dangerous.

Not sure if we discussed bans aside from AI diplomacy, but from the mapmaker WEs are banned, and the GLH is not. What's the ruling on espionage, nukes, blockades, etc.? No to all of them, as per usual?

On building the map and making the points I assumed the standard bans. Nukes you can have on or off without much issue. Espionage if you are allowing would change the value of spi...
I would recommend using standard bans. Also Khmer I was working on having banned Wellies also.

Also - can everyone post choices in the next 72 hours? Gives most of the weekend to think about it.

I'm gonna need some guidance as to what to do if people pick duplicates and best to do this now if we need people thinking of a top 3 choices kinda thing.
I think the point system makes it rather messy to snake pick things.
Really it is a choice of either
A) let duplicates happen if they come
B) a duplicate disallows that pair for all (requires a few different picks, dissallows just that combo or that leader/civ to all?)
C) a coin toss as to who gets their first pick

If we're going to do this points system thing, I vote A >> C > B.
Though if multiple people pick the exact same combo, I will be amused and perhaps a little worried.
