I'm against the noscore mod. I really dislike it.
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"

Also, since we have confirmation from Mardoc, would one of the non-players go ahead and randomize the player list for the snake pick? And if we can get our own subforum (PB27? PB28?), we can create our spoiler threads and get our starts.

Thanks to everyone making this possible!

Officially in, ambivalent about noscore mod and proposed diplo options, so fine with consensus; ok with these:


For the most part, standard settings for RtR game:
- RtR mod 2.0.7.6 (I happen to like RtR quite a bit)
- Events OFF
- Huts OFF
- Vassals OFF
- Espionage ON (annoying missions are not available in RtR mod)
- Barbs ON
- No Tech Trading
- Monarch difficulty
- Normal Speed
- All victory conditions enabled
- Snake pick
- See starts before picking

Why huts off in a casual game?

It was largely the cause of PB24 failing miserably. Most of us who were there are now very wary of huts in a PB game. smile

This being a casual game I have no opinion on events and huts. For the rest yes to Wetbandit's list.

No strong feelings on the NoScore mod.

I'll vote no to noscore because I don't care and it looks like it's going to die, anyway.

I was originally going to vote NO to huts and events, but fair point that this is meant to be casual, so I'll change it to YES and hope for the best.
I'm just doing my best out here.
