Every civ will start in the same place in each player's game, but YOUR civ will be randomly assigned. I don't know who is going to sign up or in what order, and nobody is going to know which civs one another is playing. We're all playing the same map, though, with the civs in the same places, so that should make the discussions interesting when report time comes around.


To qualify, you must have a valid email address to which your start file may be sent directly by Griselda. If you wish the file to be sent somewhere other than to the email account you used to register to this forum, or if you have turned off receiving emails, you will need to supply, openly or in private, an address at which you can receive your start file. Files will -ONLY- be delivered by email, so comply or sit this one out.


To sign up, reply to this thread. ANY reply in this thread counts as a signup, so reserve your questions for the Info thread and please limit your signups to one per player. lol Thank you. smile

We encourage all our community members to jump in on Potluck. Whether you are the Gentle Adventure type, the Extreme Adventure type, or anything in between, this is the giant RBCiv melting pot. Don't be left out of the dance!

Signups will remain open until Monday, September 18, which is three weeks after the event begins, with two weeks left to go. If you haven't signed up by then, you'll miss your chance.


REMEMBER: No spoilers! You will not know which civ you are playing until you receive your start file by email. Anybody who reveals the civ they've received, directly or indirectly, prior to Closing Day, will be disqualified! eek Don't be the one who goes there. M'kay? lol

Hi,

yay, Potluck! Here's hoping this one will draw in a similarly high amount of players as the original Epic 8. hammer

Signing up, of course!

three very nasty girls. lol

Well certainly if they become civ leaders...


Sign me up as I am hoping war exhaustion isn't to bad from Epic6...

Great concept for a game. I've only tried a few of the RB Adventures, and I wasn't involved with the Civ3 Brady Bunch game, so how can I pass this up? I wouldn't be surprised if this attracts other newer players to the RB Epics. Thanks, Sirian.

Signing in and raring to go!

I am absolutely signing up to this one! thumbsup

Sign me up. This looks like fun!

Don't think my comp will handle the late game too well, but what the heck! wink

Subscribing. Epic 8 was one of my all-time favorite games in Civ3. I don't think I'll be able to replicate my 990AD Domination win, but you never know! smile
