Agreed. Also it may be necessary to increase the turn timer later to give more room for diplomacy, right?

All in favor of more teams.

Im thinking 36hrs for the turn timer considering there is diplo in this pitboss seems fair. Hopefully no one starts to abuse having a longer turn timer and we can still keep a 1T/per day rate? Thoughts?

At least 6 teams to start?

I like the 36hr timer, especially since at least some of us have never played diplo (myself and GKC at least), I'll share this thread on a couple of the discords I haunt, hopefully we'll be able to fill out the teams that way.

36 turn timer no extensions unless notified in advance - the turn place will be glacial as it is. People should be playing with a dedlurker or two who can make moves for them in any sort of emergency. 36 hours is necessary in cases of turnsplits for people who can only play once a day. 6-7 teams would be preferable.

I HIGHLY recommend that all dedlurkers "sign up" so that it is clear who needs one/who has one or two already. @Superdeath, perhaps update the first post with the details you posted on the last page and add a list of any dedlurkers who are waiting to join a team and those who are already on one (so far we have Coin as free dedlurker and Irismono for Gavagai).

In terms of map settings, given that this is a very nostalgia-oriented diplo game, a mimicry of the famous PB2 map (only smaller, of course) would be interesting. Otherwise, a single-continent map of some sort, unless Krill demands sacrifices of triremes and galleys to be made.

Updated the first thread..

For diplo, do we want to do PM's? Or do we want a thread for each possible interaction? for example- DIPLO-Superdeath/BeardBeard-DIPLO thread. DIPLO-Superdeath/TBW-DIPLO thread?

Or any other ideas?

I thought emails were usually used? I do think team emails would be pretty useful.
