Does the points-based pick method outlined in the OP allow for duplicate leaders and civs?

Generally no, the points system is used in conjunction with a snake pick.

Welcome Plemo. I would take however many if they signed up right now! (I'm just happy we got 2 more so that waiting a week was worth it).

No Duplicate picks. I'll add to description. Official map type is "Fractal Pangaea with lots of lakes that looks kind of like a fritter".

If anyone has other questions now is a good time to ask. I still have a ? at GLH ban, which I had left up to mapmaker and I assume we will know before picks.

Next steps if I'm not wrong would be to 1) get this thread moved to its own forum. 2) wait on a map from Commodore? 3) ruminate on picks 4). Once we get a map get a pick order from some lurker and pick.

Again let me know if I'm messing something up, you have to remember I'm green too!

Id just ban the GLH regardless. 2 extra trade routes is worth building IMO no matter the map just from coastal cities alone.. ( i really want the SOZ unbanned... but i can see why, kinda )

We really should make sure that every green player, who needs it, gets a dedlurker. Especially those that never played an MP game or Pitboss game.

Could I get a summary for the map preferences? Nine people, right? Difficulty?
If only you and me and dead people know hex, then only deaf people know hex.

Other than getting moved to the pitboss forum, it looks good to me smile

Donut
Fractal
Pangaea

^ all from the excel spreadsheet.
No tie breaker, but i believe the " Fractal Pangaea with lots of lakes that looks kind of like a fritter... " was well received.
