Probably up to the mapmaker (1-2-3 not it), depending on whether they've already got something rolled, but you might as well post your vote for settings just in case.
Greywolf and CH also need to vote.

 Of course, part of the fun is the outrage when we uncover someone else's start.... But you guys should definitely troll everyone about it all game!
Also welcome 2mn! I don't think Commodore will start rolling maps until the settings are in, so please let us have your votes.
Also, also, REM b4 takes neighbours into account. And is Bob a smurf account of yours?

Go forth and post, my children. Players can start threads too if they'd like.
We're just waiting on votes from TheWannabe, Greywolf and 2metraninja and a few things are still in the balance (most notably barbs, see starts before picking, bans and espionage)

Lol a smurf that I managed to absorb 90% of in about 5-8 turns, using his iron source... :P

You're looking for PBEM 61, where Bob generally cocked things up by giving REM (Byzantium!) iron right after Jowy had made a great play to deny REM a source of iron, to prevent REM from building cataphracts with which to kill everyone. So of course REM ended up using cataphracts (with Bob's iron) to kill everyone, including, eventually, Bob. Which Bob totally deserved.

Yes. Shamefully I didn't report it that well so you can't see many pictures of the conquest I'm afraid. But I was hugely lucky. Or as H Macmillan said 'events, my dear boy, events' led me to turn from being a no hope dead end problem to smashing the world by whipping phracts.
I do think that it was the right play on bobs part to give me iron, just for not as long as he did and not as cheaply as he did (he had just razed a jowy city don't forget). But maybe I'm biased

How does that interact with barbs? Does it effect anything else?
