aw, that means I won't get lucky and score Commodore as a dedlurker
Also, both Mero and Qgqqqqq have expressed willingness to mapmake/edit. And we have 10 atm, I believe?

Although the worst (hi Toku/Russia) and best (hey Sury/India) will get tossed. Mero, did you mind me rolling those 18? Although it'd probably be a lurker/mapmaking thread discussion for edge cases.
I don't think we have consensus on how to pick leaders/civs

I think that normalized random is currently in the lead?

True, but we don't even have all of the teams registered, seems a bit premature. I guess they can go ahead and roll the combos as normalized random will probably win.

Hang on, so you want combos rolled (18, so we can chop off a few?)?

I figure rolling the combos wouldn't hurt, we can always just not use them if we decide not to use normalized random. In addition, I thought we did have all of the teams registered (10-11, too many more and it'll be too big IMHO).

You're right, I went through the thread and counted and we're at 11. I got thrown off by BXB's recapitulation. My mistake!

Either that or snake pick, but as of now it appears that more people are in favor of the method you have outlined

Suggestion: Decide on all map settings and bans BEFORE releasing the civ rolls to the teams ... in PB9 the issue of WE's came up after the Khmer was rolled (allow Khmer elephants only??). Much better to nail everything down first IMO. Once you know who you'll be playing with you'll necessarily be biased towards settings that favor your combo.
