Nicolae, do you prefer scout starts or default starts? Mackoti said he'd go with whatever we picked while he's away.

OK, let's just confirm what we have then. I added a couple things we didn't fully discuss, but that seem uncontroversial, in bold. Please sign off on this if it looks good, and provide your preferred play window.
Quote:Map and settings information
* Mirrorland map script, Standard size, Ancient era, Quick speed, Critical Resources Close, Waterways.
* No barbs, unrestricted leaders, always war, no vassal states, no tribal villages, no random events.
* Prince difficulty for everyone.
* Mapmaker may make some edits in the name of fun, and will add some pre-placed improvements (mirrored, like everything else).
Setup
* Mapmaker will provide a starting screenshot, with all tiles forming the BFC of a city settled in place visible (manually revealed in worldbuilder if necessary, just for the screenshot).
* After deciding turn order, we'll choose a random starting player.
* Leaders/civs will be selected over two rounds of picking, from last player to first player.
* Some civs/traits will cost you turns if you pick them. For each lost turn, you must spend one turn at the start of the game doing absolutely nothing before you end turn. (You can't move or use units.)
* FIN, EXP, and India all cost 2 turns; CRE, Inca, Byzantium, and Rome cost 1 turn.
* Each player will start with a settler and scout on the starting tile (plus of course their civ's starting techs).
* If all players have turns to skip, we'll let those turn skips cancel, so that at least one player is playing an actual turn on t0.
Rules
* No communication between players is allowed.
* Goes without saying, but play in good faith and put up a good fight.
* The only bans are:
- Spy missions.
- Great spy infiltration ability.
- Nukes.
- All UN/AP resolutions if AW doesn't automatically disable them.
- War Elephants

Looks good to me. I prefer to play from 20 to 23 my time which is 18-21 GMT, but will soon be 19-22 GMT. I can often play during the day as well but can't guarantee consistency there.
I have to run.

I am 0600-0800 GMT (until Daylight Saving Time ends early November - then I'm 0700-0900).
So far:
Serdoa 1600-2000
Novice 1800-2100 / 1900-2200
Seven 0600-0800 / 0700-0900
I know mackoti is somewhere in that euro-jumble... I'll leave figuring that out to you three.
