This is it, my personal thread for PB16.

This will be my spoiler thread for Pitboss 16.

Why are we the Perpy Traitors? Because we are going to murder us some Perpentachs. (Or alternatively: Because PUN)

10 turn stretches seems the least likely to result in confusion on switchover dates. If we mess with the schedule, I can see a lot more confusion about what turn to play to.

I'm a little rusty at the moment, so I'm probably not the best person to do the Turn 1 "Where is the capital going to go" decision. But I will if nobody else wants to.

So, we don't know who we are, and it doesn't matter cause the only thing we can legally discuss is player logistics.



Personal preferences: I'd rather not go first, I'm at an exciting time in one of my other games. Don't care if I'm 2nd or 3rd.

I want to do the random 8-12 turn thing, at least to start off. I really want to be able to witness a leader change in a neighbor, and that seems the only way. It's straightforward. Go to here: http://www.random.org/integers/ , type in 1 number between 8 and 12, hit 'get numbers', and you have your answer.

I don't use e-mail notifications at all, so I'm happy with putting everything in spoilers here. Does that work for both of you, or should we branch out to three threads? I think one thread will be simpler and easier to read at the end, but it's less important than sticking within the no spoiler rules.

Anything else to mention? I can't think of anything myself.

This is a spoiler thread. Are you sure that you want to read it?

I've just started a story telling pbem game. It is hosted at CFC and the 'DM' is Luthor_Saxburg. He has set up an interesting backstory and the game is certainly playing out that way (only played 2 turns so far).

The report is available at my web site.

Well this looks like a fun team, should have some good discussion.
I think our strongest point needs to be our ability to communicate with each other - as PB4's team 4 showed, we really need to make sure we function as one coherent whole, which means good communication and endless discussion
To kick it off, I think we should aim for the [REDACTED], as they have good synergy with our teams skillsets, paticularly if we can leverage the [REDACTED] for an [REDACTED]-game lead. We should make sure to follow [REDACTED]'s example from PBEM [REDACTED], paticularly the bit where [HE/SHE/IT] took advantage of the [REDACTED] to perform that best of strategies,

16:

For its "coming of age" significance, this age has inspired the titles of many songs, such as "Happy Birthday Sweet Sixteen", "You're Sixteen", "Sweet Sixteen", "U16 Girls" "Sweet Little Sixteen" and "Sixteen Candles"

There are sixteen pawns in a chess set and each player in a chess game starts with sixteen pieces.

The number 16 is the symbol of the Day of solidarity with political prisoners and victims of the Lukashenka regime in Belarus, which is commemorated on 16th of every months by demonstrations and flash mobs worldwide

In the story of the Sleeping Beauty, a spell is placed on the princess that when she reaches her 16th birthday, she will "prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and die"

There are sixteen different personality types in the Myers-Briggs classification system

16 is the base of the hexadecimal number system, which is used extensively in computer science


Oh yes, and this is where we can talk about the Pitboss 16 game too.

No players, of course.

Unless you're here to improve my klout rating, get out!
