Thanks. With all that in mind, my vote would be to:
1) Ban spy missions but allow building of spies. We already have civic/religion/tech stealing banned, so we're not banning that much more anyways.
2) Snake pick in order of turn order. I'd also rather be further back in the snake pick, so I do think that part of the snake is preferable. I also just generally prefer snake pick than reverse rounds.
However, I'm not insistent on either one of these, so I will go with the majority.

Wait, wtf? No, people can't just decide that other people will be last in turn order, that's not OK.

Is he saying that? Or just saying based on the random order that was picked, it works out ok? I can't tell.
After thinking more, I really don't have a preference about picking--I'd just like it to start soon so we can get moving.

Oh, the above list wasn't order? I thought it was randomized and Yuri went first.

Yeah, Mardoc already decided the pick order for us randomly. We just don't know if we're snaking or not. Once we know, we can pick. Would like to hear from Pin/Yuri.

No, it hasn't been randomized yet, it's just a sorted list of timezones starting in Europe, pretty much. We really should decide the relationship between turn order and pick order before randomizing anything.
Edit: As scooter points out, mardoc posted a spoilered random result, but we haven't looked at it yet, so that's fine.

Mardoc gave us a randomized order here. SevenSpirits came up first, so he would pick first. According to turn order we'd pick Seven -> Yuris -> Dazed -> scooter -> Pin and snake back and Seven would be first in turn order OR we'd pick two times in that order and Pin gets first in turn order (and Seven gets last).

And, I just gave away the randomized result - though I had seen it already (I have instant email notifications on for this thread so I saw it without spoiler tags), so I'm not sure if it's better to just re-randomize so that we decide without knowing the order.

Heh. Let's re-randomize after deciding. Tricky business!
