Pitboss 66 Tech and Setup Thread

Hello! I am wondering if there is any interest in a new Pitboss starting sometime in the next couple of weeks - it's been great having a few active games recently, why not add one more? mischief If a mapmaker wants to make us a fully edited map that would be fantastic, however I am also interested in the possibility of using SevenSpirits' Torusland or Mirrorland scripts to make something (and have someone briefly look over for anything too crazy). Either could be fun if we are unable to source a full-on mapmaker. 

Otherwise, I'm envisaging fairly standard settings, and we can vote on whether to have a 'random block' or snake pick settings for combos. Probably around 120 tiles per player, as a good 'average' size. We'd need at least 5 people to fire up a game, but the more the merrier. Any takers? smile

  1. Amicalola
  2. Superdeath
  3. JackRB
  4. GeneralKilCavalry
  5. Tarkeel + Civac
  6. Vanrober

There is a disturbing lack of my name on that sign up sheet.
"Superdeath seems to have acquired a rep for aggression somehow. [Image: noidea.gif] In this game that's going to help us because he's going to go to the negotiating table with twitchy eyes and slightly too wide a grin and terrify the neighbors into favorable border agreements, one-sided tech deals and staggered NAPs."

Are we trying to fire this before the diplo pitboss? / is the diplo pitboss still happening?

Also, am I that stupid? IE when would the start be?

Yeah, I wouldn't be confident that the diplo game is going to fire. Maybe have another crack in a few months?

I am intending for this to start in ~1-2 weeks. Would be great to have you in. smile
