[PLAYERS DO NOT ENTER] Lurkers thread, where lurkers are making fun of the players

So...Darius of HRE and Pacal of Egypt? Not saying those are the strongest, just what I think will be picked.

Well, Pacal team wants Fishing/Agriculture and countering Preatorians, so Native Americans there. HRE with Darius is a pretty decent bet.

Since one of players in this game started this lurker thread I'm hoping they aren't getting email alerts to posts here. Is that something the admin tools can see?

Why worry about that when anyone can just click on the lurker thread?

Why not worry about that, are you some kind of optimist? Leave me to my negative thoughts!

There is also possibility that lots of these players are new to this forum, or just visiting, or whatever. Everyone know you don't click lurker threads. But---Hey wait, why am I getting all these damn emails with interesting information??

OKAY THIS IS THE OFFICIAL NOTICE TO ANYONE GETTING EMAIL NOTIFICATIONS WHEN YOU SHOULDN'T BE. TURN OFF YOUR EMAIL NOTIFICATIONS IF THAT IS THE CASE. END POST.

Seriously, all we are going to be doing is slagging people off.

That's what happens in lurker threads most of the time, but still, it's unusual for a player to start a lurker thread. Players can get spoiler info accidentally, or can get it on purpose. That's up to them.

Players starting lurker threads is not unusual at all, it's just that most of the time Commodore starts the thread first when it's a Pitboss. Many PBEM lurker threads have been started by players when nobody else did it.
