2v2v2v2 team pitboss anyone?

[SevenSpirits]

HitAnyKey and TheHumanHydra: please let us know when you feel like you have a solid team. (Since you mentioned earlier you would like a vet dedlurker, and only have a couple games of experience here at RB.) It looks like the other three teams are in good enough shape to start setup, but I want to make sure you guys have enough time to recruit if you want it.

There isn't a big hurry.

@ Team HHHH, mind if I join?

Second that! Care if I join as well?

Sevenspirits asked to do you a map and I agreed. I think this has been settled:
* Lakes type of map with less that 30-35% water (whichever was the circumnav threshold)
* ~150 tiles per player. Might be 48x48 or something similar size

Direclty map related questions:
* Wrap?
* Map style
- Natural look/feel map i.e. tundra/ice/desert/jungle are in the "right places" and there are both good and bad land around
- Lush setup with very little bad land. There can be jungle/desert/tundra in strange places

Then some minor other questions that potentially could effect to the map:
* Wonder bans?
* Corporations?

[SevenSpirits]

Thank you very much Plako.

I want to clarify that my suggestion of 150 land tiles per player (so ~1200 total) is just an estimate and also based on my experience with maps that have pretty much only "good" land (so not natural). I'd rather trust your judgment there.

I think we are not quite ready to vote on settings. But I will start a poll soon, and let you know when we have more solidified preferences for you.

By the way, I would like to point out that team HitAnyHumanHydrasYouComeAcross does need some more members and in particular could use some veteran involvement.

I'm still hoping for Thoth to join us as a dedlurker, since he still hasn't voiced which team he plans to dedlurk. But yeah, we definitely could use a nice vet dedlurker/advisor.

[HitAnyKey]

Hey, HitHumanHydrasHohoho, do you need a non-vet dedlurker?

Well I think we can use as much help as possible, so I don't see why not. IMHO, the more voices we have offering input and insight (especially if any of you are any good at all with things like choosing good leader combos, micromanagement, etc, etc) the better. Plus we'll need at least one person to play my turns for probably half of the month of August.
So unless THH has any objections (which I kinda doubt he will), you guys are all welcome to join the team and/or dedlurk us. Do any of you consider yourselves Vets, btw?

I would say close enough (as far as mp). I do play Deity sp so game knowledge wise, pretty much close to expert.

To celebrate my joining of team Mack7, I'll show the others how things will work out in our team:

I'll be the management, Seven and Mack will be the labor. Now, go pick us a leader. Than start on a micro plan.

[Serdoa]

HAK, I can join you as a ded-lurker. I think I count as vet and I believe I also count as ok with micro-management and stuff like that. I do not have much time though, so I would really only be available to give advice from time to time. I can do the turn-playing in August as well most certainly if necessary.
