What I would love to lurk..

I'd be pretty interested in a vet game of some sort, among other things. No time for a while though.

Every day she asks me how much longer it's going to continue. I can't say I blame her, it's been a loooooonnnnngggggg game.

Fuck you, man.

Semi-bump. I'd like to see this stay near the top because I think we can make some more interesting games. I'd be interested in another massive game but I don't think I'd tackle it solo again, or even as a primary turn player. It takes too much of my time and my wife hates me for it. Every day she asks me how much longer it's going to continue. I can't say I blame her, it's been a loooooonnnnngggggg game.

Tier list:

1. OH
2-10. The rest of RB
11. Other civ sites (non-RB'ers viewing this, make a profile, join our site, play our games. Then you automatically fill spots 2-10. Yes, I know this is garbage. This is hostile recruitment.)
12. Fintourist.

This is what you get for asking for a tier list.

Without me holding him back, OH would have celebrated a conquest victory in PB18 by turn 150...

Btw, I'm honored to share the achievement of being named as the lone worst player in a tier list with Darrell

Well, some us just need to get along with smaller recognition..

Been thinking about how to make a map for 50 players, and how to even roll the civs for that many people. There would have to be duplicates due to only being 34 civs in teh game. Only method I've come up with is splitting the player base into 2 or 3 groups and then either running the random pairings with rejection pick method, or doing 3 separate snake picks.

I suppose the reason I'm posting is: lot's of people seem to hate change, or duplicates, but does that sounds unreasonable? Any problems with those pick methods?

I'm fairly sure that after PB18 dies there is likely to be another large PB game started at some point. I know I'd play again if the map wasn't horrendous.

50 player Mirrorland. SO no one can complain about relative land quality.

Fuck you Brick. Fuck you.

25 different duel maps. With Stargates for the survivor of each duel.

Seriously...? Maybe build a smaller map so that you don't have to balance so many tiles, and then mirror (or scrambled mirrors) that region X number of times for however many players it is. So if it's 50 players maybe roll a map big enough for 10 players and get the balance right on that, and then copy that section into the bigger map canvas, but scrambled enough so that the terrain isn't obviously from a mirrored base, and do that five times to get to the required number of starts? Still a lot of work and hard to get right though. And obviously won't insulate the map maker from murderous player rage about any imperfections.
