So the players that stick with their combos could have screenshots tonight/tomorrow?

[BRickAstley]

They can have screenshots whenever we actually get screenshots ready. Which most likely will not be today or tomorrow.

I'd offer to help but all I'd do is impersonate grump cat.

[Serdoa]

Aren't you doing that already Krill?

Most people think grumpy is an improvement compared to my baseline of misanthropic hostility.

Just curious. What is the method that is going to be used for the re-rolls. I know you said that if you re-roll, your current leader/civ go back into the pool. So am I correct that if someone's re-roll happens before mine, that their current combo goes back into the pool such that it's possible I would get them during my re-roll? If so, are you going to randomize the order of the re-rolls or do them in the order that people made their decision to do the re-roll? Or am I'm thinking too much into this and it's simpler than that?

The tech thread is made for when the game is underway, all of the game settings and the current pick status are up there.

There is also a thread to be used as a one-stop thread for when a player needs a sub, and for those subs to state they're able to play a turn, so that has a designated space to hopefully keep things moving smoothly.

To be precise:

1: I will isolate all players who have decided to keep their first leader/civ, they and their picks are set in stone.
2: I will create new lists of all undecided players, all unlocked leaders, and all unlocked civs.
3: I will use the list randomizer to reorder those lists, so that each player will have a new leader and civ to decide on.
3a- leader and civ lists are randomized separately, so leaders and civs will have different pairings than they do right now.
4: If any player receives a leader or civ that they rejected in the first round, I will re-randomize the list until that is not the case any longer. I think we have a large enough pool to have assigned that it doesn't seem unreasonable to offer that guarantee.

So in short all re-rolls are simultaneous, so how soon you decide or not has no bearing on what you might get.

The Black Sword has volunteered to be vice/sub admin, provided nobody has any strong objections to it.
