What I would love to lurk..

Or you could allow duplicate leaders with base BtS. Everyone plays Pacal of India! Or anything else they might fancy.

[Alhazard]

There are some players who cannot play a modded game due to technical reasons. OSX being one of them. I would be interested in A or B in the OP.

[Commodore]

Well, at least one mod would be needed for 50 players...

[Krill]

Yeah, those players that can't play with modded DLL can't play in a game with more than 18 players anyway.

[Alhazard]

Do the mod they run work with OSX? I know that RtR doesn't work.

3. Vet Pitboss
- We organize separate green games, but otherwise everyone is welcome to join any other games. However, I would love to see e.g. a ~10 player Pitboss consisting of top RB players (say, players who come to mind when you try to name 20 best players in our community).

Instead of using a tier list which will be fraught with problems, get people to anonymously submit the top 10 or so players they want to see in the game to an organiser who will invite the 10 players who have most votes to play. If anyone declines then invite the next in line and so on.

Pitboss game on that smushed Earth map I made. Group civs by how much land they each have and then let people volunteer for the civs with worse prospects but a higher chance for glory.

[Krill]

Stop stealing my ideas Brick.

[BRickAstley]

To amend my above statement, Krill came up with the volunteer idea in a chat a week ago or so, i just shamelessly co-opted it as my own beccause i am a villan.

I'd be game. Not up for a huge game, but a Three City Challenge?
