That's because the tech thread in 18 is being used by both groups I believe. Plus the map thread applies to both games as we're using the same map.

Professionals:
Lewwyn [GMT 01:00-05:59]; mackoti [GMT 06:00-11:59]; DMOC/Nakor [GMT 12:00-17:59]; SleepingMoogle [GMT 18:00-00:59]

Apprentices:
Sareln [GMT 00:00-07:59]; Nicolae Carpathia [GMT 08:00-10:59]; Ioan76 [GMT 11:00-20:59]; GingerEagle1969 [GMT 21:00-23:59]

The civ/leader pairings are:

1) Augustus of China (SleepingMoogle, GingerEagle1969)
2) Lincoln of Ethiopia (Lewwyn, Sareln)
3) Kublai Khan of France (mackoti, Nicolae Carpathia)
4) Asoka of Aztec (DMOC/Nakor, Ioan76)

(By the way it's a coincidence that the the first player on each of the time loops was given the second position in the game; I picked randomly for each, as it's reasonable to start the cycle anywhere in the day.) Go ahead and make your threads now. I will mail the save off to SleepingMoogle and GingerEagle.

Lurkers gave lots of suggestions and advice on both the map and leader/civ combos, much of which I heeded, but ultimately if you don't like your start/leader/civ it's totally my fault. Have fun. smile

While we're waiting on Ioan in the Apprentice game .. I thought we might discuss if anything is banned in this game? I think the de regeur is no nukes, no war elephants [only work ivory for happiness], no spies, and no Cristo Redentor. Anything else? Or shall we be different & allow all these? This applies to professionals as well as apprentices.

Uh, I do recommend banning elephants. I wasn't treating them as a powerful strategic resource during mapmaking so that might result in some unfairness.

Most games haven't even mentioned nukes or Cristo Redentor, those simply come too late to be too powerful.

Spy units are usually banned as well. Great Spy units aren't banned, but they aren't allowed to leave your culture and have to be settled or used to Golden Age.
