I believe I did a terrible spoof of them once ages ago, so I've been a longtime fan. I think I retroactively appreciated them more after having my own experience being the Gaspar when you ded-lurked a few of my games.
Can an admin help Serdoa recover his account? I can assure you that this is the same person.

Serdoa would be the sixth if he is playing. pindicator doesn't really want to play and was just helping fill out the game.

Yeah, I would be a bit stretched thing to take on another game in earnest right now. Gladly will step back.

Okay, so about the game settings.
For the specifics of the map size, the map size I was talking about is a map where you can settle second ring cities from your capital without much issue, but third ring cities would be contested. Hope that's clear enough for everyone. Other settings to discuss / vote on: 1) PBEM or Sequential Pitboss a. PBEM b. Sequential Pitboss If PBEM wins then I will try my best to scrounge up a way to get a tracker page to show who is the current player to play. If I don't manage to do this then we'll probably just have to do the Pitboss instead. So a vote for PBEM is assuming that there will be a tracker page. 2) World Wrap a. Toroidal b. Cylindrical c. Mapmaker's choice Remember that Circumnavigation is no longer exclusive to the first player and provides +1 trade route in all cities instead of extra movement for ships. Also, Cylindrical and Toroidal have been changed to both use the Cylindrical maintenance calculation. 3) Game Speed a. Quick b. Normal We seem to have a consensus for Normal already but I want to give an opportunity for everyone to express their opinion. 4) Map Difficulty a. Prince b. Monarch c. Emperor d. Mapmaker's choice 5) Map Size (this is just the in-game setting, not related to the actual size of the map which is described above) a. Small b. Standard c. Mapmaker's choice 6) Barbarians a. On b. Off 7) City Trading a. On b. Off (Note this means that you cannot give cities away in peace deals) 8) Map Trading a. On b. Off 9) Pick Method a. Snake b. Something else you propose 10) See starting screenshots before picking? a. Yes b. No Map settings that end up being mapmaker's choice will be known to us before picks are made. Other settings that I assumed would be universally accepted: (or were mentioned in the first post) 1) Normal Ancient Start 2) True AI Diplomacy, no usage of the in-game text box or spelling out words with resources 3) No Tech Trading 4) No Huts 5) No Random Events 6) Normal Inflation 7) Normal War Weariness (as in not selecting the "No War Weariness" option) 8) No Vassal States 9) Spies allowed, missions are disabled by the mod 10) No kingmaking, such as voting for other players in Diplomatic Victory or gifting away a bunch of cities
