Darrel, Regoarrar, Shoot the Moon, Kyan and me/Spaceman are setting up a new PBEM and we're looking for a map maker. Any volunteers?
See http://realmsbeyond.net/forums/showthrea...post127527 for details.

If you haven't gotten a hit from anyone else, I can put something together for you. From the sounds of your specifications, you're really looking for a pretty natural map, using your settings, just vetted for balance, so that's what I'd be aiming for. If you're looking for something cuter than that, I probably am not a good choice.
I've got some dirt on my shoulder, can you brush it off for me?

There are no map scripts that give what is asked for; it's going to need major hand crafting or at the very least, lots of tweaking of Full of Resources map script.

I'd be happy to help review the map to help with balance... Not sure I'm the guy to make it though.

Understood - I didn't intend to suggest that I thought I could throw up custom continents and make sure nobody had a double gold start and be done with it - more that some of the stuff that's been done in more recent PBEMs is probably a bit beyond my worldbuilder skilllevel.
Sadly, I've been sussed out, it was really just an attempt at taking the opportunity to screw Kyan. I thought you might enjoy a personal no-forest challenge.
Kidding - I'll leave it to the players though, just offered in case you're having trouble getting things off the ground. You know where to find me.

I've an idea about hand crafted map. It wouldn't be natural, but it would fulfill most of your requirements. Just let me know, if you want me to do it. I need few days to finish it though.

Well if I understand correctly we asked you Plako first, and I like the other maps you've made, so I would be very happy to have you fix us a map.
Gaspar, I guess you'll have to find another opportunity to get even with Kyan.

Its unfortunate, Kyan - I had an iceball of a start err a nice ball of a start planned for you.
I feel like I should take you up on the dedlurking offer just so you know there's no harm intended from the unbelievable volume of insults I've hurled at you at my PBEM12 lurker thread, but I fear putting me and TT on the same team would be too much crazy in one thread.
