Well, I have to go find all the crap my kids broke while I was sitting here hitting F5 and talking to Krill. I should do this before my wife gets home, so I don't get broken myself.

Well, that was fast yikes Certainly bodes well for getting turns turned around I guess.

I'll take the Ottomans.

Any definitive word on baning blockades? It looks like we have 2.5 teams in favor at this point.

Finally, the email I'll be using is shootthemoonrb [at] gmail. Do we have/want a tracker for the game?

I'm for banning coastal blockades as well.

So these settings are the ones agreed upon, IIUC:

Map settings:
  • 5 players
  • Quick speed
  • Custom Continents, one continent per player
  • All continents are galley reachable by every other player, without having to go through a 3rd continent
  • Intermediate islands between continents
  • No coastal capitals
  • Continents are not exactly the same but are balanced
  • "Lush" settings, with extra resources (maybe each continent has at least one of every resource?)
  • Monarch difficulty, or toroidal Prince
  • Huts off

Other game settings:
  • No Tech trading
  • Events off
  • No permanent alliances
  • No vassal states
  • Default Starting Units
  • No barbs

Rules
  • No active Espionage (great spies must be settled / GA)
  • No nukes
  • The Heroic Epic and West Point can only be built once you have a qualifying unit that has always been yours, and if joined to a GG, the GG was one you spawned yourself
  • No restrictions on settling only on "your" continent
  • No corporations
  • Diplo and screenshot trading allowed after having met in-game
  • No coastal blockades
I have to run.

Why aren't there more Medieval/Industrial Era PBEMs?

Agreed. The one Myst set up in PBEM 8 has been awesome, I'd definitely like having something along those lines.
