Pitboss 11 Organizing Thread

That's an inspired spoiler thread title.

Just predicting the likely outcome.

'Scusi Kuro, wondering if you were still keeping a running sheet of games settings votes?

Just looking at the somewhat unwieldy spreadsheet, a couple of folks have updated their prefs since but there are some gaps. (I updated a couple of teams last night before hitting the hay.) I can go back through the last 10 or so pages of posts and fill in the blanks if needed.

I have not been since it seemed like people stopped, but I can if you want. I think most/all of the Settings are decided by now, though(Normal Speed, Blockade ban, Nuke/India(Not needed lol)/WE ban, we got the map stuff done, etc)

[teleh]

Ok cool, yep I think most of the stuff is decided on either by consensus or majority.

I'm running a quick tally on what's on the sheet now to make sure nothing was still under discussion. But basically:

Map: Monarch/Cylindrical/Large & Commodore's privilege
Civ Picks: Done, Randomized normalised
Diplo: AI only
Espionage: No spies allowed, GSpys must be settled or used for GA
TT: Off
Barbs: On
Huts: Off
Events: Off
Bans: Corporations, War Elephants, Blockades, Nukes (& India)
Normal Speed
24h Turn Timer (48h for First Turn)
All Civs start with a Scout rather than their default
Visual-only mods
No cheese gifting etc

These are the current votes based on what's been put in the spreadsheet so far. I'm of the opinion that anything which has been in contention previously, either has a clear majority or we've reached a consensus on it.

If anyone's unhappy with these settings, speak soon, or forever hold your peace.

[Kuro]

I'm entirely okay with these settings.

[teleh]

That spreadsheet is glitchy with the Icon sets. It's served its purpose so it's going bye-byes.

E: Original Post updated with "final" settings.

[spacetyrantxenu]

Teleh, your latest survey seems to agree with the consensus. I think that those game rules reflect what we've voted on up to now.

For any rule not written in that set, I believe we're all adhering to the "don't be a dick" policy, unless someone has a more polite way to express that sentiment.

"Act in good faith"?

[BaII]

Also one more thing, shouldn't we remove colonial maintenance costs?

Oh man, that's a good point. Vassals off!
