Still trying to decide what theme I wanna use this time around, thinking maybe a screenshot only thread or a near-screenshot only thread with a newspaper theme...but at the same time, I might wanna stream, or do something more talk-y...I require more thought on this naming.

I'll be ded-lurking here for at least a while. I don't have enough time or effort for another game as a full team member, but am happy to give thoughts (and happy to have them ignored). The newspaper theme sounds pretty cool (screenshots with headlines?) but I'm probably only inclined to talk about Civ specifics and I'm not good at role playing or contributing to an art piece.
It's a shame there's so much pre-game drama already with pick order and nitpicking details. Any pre-game thoughts on the types of Civ or Leaders you want to play here?

I'll try and give some in-depth thoughts on Civ/Leader here, but with the big guys banned and no special settings (Like Espionage, where I may have tried to go Great Wall), I'll probably choose a Creative civ, because Creative is one of my fave traits. But picking 9th, I'll really have to se what everyone else picks. It is too bad about all the drama, I'm mostly just trying to stay out of it. 'S just a game, after all. If I did go newspaper theme, I'd probably still be up for iv talk and would certainly like thoughts no matter what. XD It'd probably be screenshots with headlines and maybe a short "article" for important things (Like a wardec or founding the capital).
It's probably a bad idea to avoid Krills advice but I'll ded-lurk u regardless.

Yeah, Creative really makes the opening game city placement a lot easier. This being BTS (and not RBMod) Financial is obviously considered the most powerful trait. And Willem (FIN / CRE) will be banned, and it seems so will Sury (EXP / CRE).
If me, I'd probably like to try a FIN leader, which means hoping one of the lower tier ones makes it to #9, maybe Hannibal or Ragnar or even Wang Kon. It's not an original way to play. If you want Creative though, Zara (CRE / ORG) isn't bad and will probably still be available.

I'm pretty sure Sury isn't banned. Wang Kon isn't worth it for Financial (And Victoria would be before him anyway). I'm typing up stuff after I play my PB11 turn.
I don't think there's any way Sury or Victoria would make it to #9 without being picked. If they make it that far, either one would be a no-brainer. Though I'm not as big a fan of Sury as some are - he's the fastest at early expansion but both traits aren't really very useful in the late game or to avoid stagnation in the mid game.
I personally do not like lower tier Finnancial leaders as Agg, and Pro do very little for you. Asoka will probably be open still if you want him. Although if u want a stronger early game you can pick up Zara Yaqob instead as Asoka's traits for early game are garbage.
