New Pitboss - Greens (new player / newish)

[Charriu]

Keep also in mind that we can switch between both modes during a running game.

i put in my votes. my timeline is EST and there is a good chance i'll be out for at least a week and some days, so a dedlurker to run turns then would be nice

Sequential is very nice for war time turns, but simultaneous is king for peace.

This. 

We've run a couple sequential games recently (PB65, PB70, & PB71) and it basically keeps people from camping the turn timer. You can also actually respond so it doesn't "feel" as bad / confer as many advantages. To note you can run 50-60 turns in sequential before switching so pace doesn't get affected too bad although we still make over 7 turns a week in PB70 when people aren't gone. 

Since this game is only 4 players I would heavily recommend. And yes put your timeslot off to right in spreadsheet if you are voting for.

think we're just waiting on bing to vote?

Messaged him on Discord. I also requested a forum.

One last thing on map. MINIMUM of 12 tiles between players. IE capital 12 tiles, then another capital. We um may have had two greens in a game get axe rushed once because capitals were like 9-10 tiles away with coppers pointed at each other lol.

I count that as 13 tiles between players, fwiw.

Some other thoughts:
NO one-tile islands.
Preferably no strategics in the capital BFC.
Make sure copper and horse has food.
Preferably two coppers, not in the same direction, to lessen chokes
Similar access to neighbors and islands
Please balance stone as one of the strategics; Marble can be a lux

tarkeel mentioned wanting to dedlurk my thread, not sure on the status on anyone else getting / wanting DLs

[Mjmd]

That is why I clarified. For some reason between for some people also includes the end points which is literally not the definition   . That would be more "to" maybe. Anyways.

Yes Ded lurkers can also be seen in voting spreadsheet. I filled them in. 

Waiting on our own forum and map.

If we find no dedlurker for Bing, i think, I could try to find someone over at civforum.de.
