I believe that AI-Diplo was chosen; which means all diplo is done through the trade screens in-game.
However Charriu modded in an option to send the same diplo offers to players that you can to AI's: Declare war on X, Stop trading with X, Revolt into civic/religion, which makes it much easier to communicate.

Yeah, AI diplo is sort of the default. There are a few more true AI diplo options available as Tarkeel pointed out. And yes, I’ve been told the turn order is adjustable as I considered it in PB70, though I haven’t seen it actually done yet. I know it’s not trivial so it shouldn’t be done lightly, but it’s probably doable if needed it sounds like.
Appears our GMT-ordered play windows look like this:
Cairo 0100-0500
Oxy: 0900-1600
Luddite: 1300-1700
Yuris: 1300-100
Scooter: 2300-300
If that’s true, I believe we can generate a turn order and therefore a pick order. Although I’m slightly concerned that Cairo seems to not be aware that the bulk of this will be played sequentially, so I’d like to be certain he’s still in with this arrangement.
If/when he confirms all good, a lurker can roll the a dice and determine who is first in the turn order and therefore how the draft order shakes out. A reminder that given a 12345 turn order, the draft is 54321123455432112345.

Oh yeah, I did misunderstand, but that's ok, I'm still interested, but I would like a dedlurker who can jump in and play my turns if necessary.

It's a match. I think we're ready for someone to roll us a turn/draft order. Play order again is Cairo -> Oxy -> Luddite -> Yuris -> Scooter.

Bump on this - some lurker mind generating us a turn order? Really just need a dice roll to decide who plays first, and everything else comes from that.

Eh? If all you need right now is a die roll...
[rolls 1d10]
[divides by 2, rounding up]
[counts to four on scooter's five-player list]
Yuris first then.

Thanks!
Turn order then is Yuris -> Scooter -> Cairo -> Oxy -> Luddite.
Inverting that, here's our draft order:
Luddite
Oxy
Cairo
Scooter
Yuris
Yuris
Scooter
Cairo
Oxy
Luddite
Luddite
Oxy
Cairo
Scooter
Yuris
Yuris
Scooter
Cairo
Oxy
Luddite

Map will be a while but starts are likely coming tonight, just leaving a few more hours for objections.

Here are the starts, roughly ordered from best to worst. Map-script in use is Big and Small, and will be balanced for luxuries.
Start 1:
Start 2:
Start 3:
Start 4:
Start 5:
If for some reasone these don't fit your expectations at all, I can remake a new set in a week or so.
