I hope it's accurate enough, I posted it a few days after the game ended and still haven't made it through the spoiler threads yet, so details are surely lacking. But yeah, Plako's excellent play aside, that game was all Survivor.

here's a PB/PBEM related question from an MP newbie

whats the difference between no diplo, AI diplo, and full diplo games?

here's a PB/PBEM related question from an MP newbie

whats the difference between no diplo, AI diplo, and full diplo games?

Full diplo: you can communicate with the other players, once in-game contact with the player in question has been made.

AI diplo: you can't talk to other players through text or equivalent, but you can make in-game offers in the diplo screen without text.

No diplo: same as AI diplo.

Variants:
* Sometimes people use "AI diplo" to mean as above, but you can also manually enter the same sorts of requests that you can make of AIs: War with X, Stop trading with X...
* I could imagine someone using "no diplo" to mean as above, but also no in-game trade offers of any kind. As a rule though, people just run "Always War" games, in which the game setting rules out any in-game diplo in the first place. "Always War" tends to also imply that no communication is allowed. To my knowledge, only one game has used this "no diplo" version without being Always War, and that was an Always Peace game.

I cannot find the PB descriptions in the spreadsheet. Is their another spreadsheet for PB or am I just blind?

Look at the bottom of the screen, there's a tab for each of PBEMs, Pitboss, FFH PBEMs, Demogames, and WW.
