Dark Savant needed a bit more time to think about joining in or not.

Okay, I can say I'm in now, seeing as how I was just eliminated early in PB38.

Ouch, that was tough luck in PB 38.

I`m glad that you`re joining us in the next game, though. We have been discussing settings a bit. Do you have any strong preferences?

As we are at 7 players now, it`s probably time to ask for a mapmaker to step forward. Is there anyone out there who would like to help us out? As soon as we have a mapmaker I think we`re closing the sign-ups.

There was one awful mistake I made there, but even with that, a lot still had to go wrong for that to happen at all.

Pretty much anything goes, really.  You could roll a map at random and it's unlikely I'll have ... that ... happen again.

Added. The majority wants to play with Rtr mod so yes, pretty close to the settings of PB 38. I do have a couple of questions to all players:

Should we enable map trading or not?

Also, we need to decide on a pick method. My preference is a snake pick in this kind of small Pitboss. What do you guys think?

No map trading until Paper (like in vanilla)

Prefer picking from random combinations, but don't particularly care. A snake pick just requires more thinking

I would prefer the same settings as PB38.

Same here.

I would prefer snake pick, but I can also live with random combinations.

Ditto.

If we decide to allow map trading we need to use the 2.0.8.3 mod instead of the 2.0.8.4 mod used in PB 38.
