Serdoa/Noble, Commodore, von Adlercreutz/Tao Tao, Gavagai/Bacchus, probably Krill but I still can't bring myself to read his shit, and I'm assuming retep/Ichabod is for the lulz.

Edit: and Nyles Standish for suspected sockpuppetry?

@BGN ... is that post aiming for a QOM?
I have finally decided to put down some cash and register a website. It is www.ruffhi.com. Now I remain free to move the hosting options without having to change the name of the site.

So if Nyles is he's using a proxy. I doubt it though.

Not particularly. I just read a few pages from Krill's PB18 thread and was basically aghast. I thwarted him and he got a massive hard on for revenge. No need to subject myself to more of that.

That does sound like interesting variant, along with "raze any city you capture" rule

I subbed for Taotao this weekend and his micro is surprisingly very tight. I was impressed. I hadn't been reading their thread very closely before but I definitely will now. He's also got one of the best overall civs and leaders for this game, I think. Don't write him off just because he's a new player!

Taotao/von Adlercreutz look to be the new try-hard, can-do team. I'm rooting for them.

Until someone outs them as sockpuppets. :P

When I read Serdoa's thread, it keeps reminding me of one of the early Commodore's post:

He's done that with everyone but Gaspar, and even Gaspar eventually lets Noble steer in the end. Has an impressive win/loss ratio, though.
