I hadn't even thought of the notion of using a map script. Torusland (is that what you mean? I couldn't find Torusworld proper) seems really cool, and caters to what I was talking about in my earlier post about wishing for some asymmetry, but I've been taking a pretty active role here and I don't want to shout anyone down.

And choose them so that none of us have played in that particular PBEM so we don't start with an advantage. That would probably require less work. I could even do this if you decide to go this route.
I have some time this weekend. I can make whatever for you guys. You also however need to decide on a new picking system as those scores were map dependent.
I would be happy to make a 65 redux style map or something.
The notion of points-style picking was imported from PBEMs 45 and 53, and REM and Commodore balanced the specific point costs for the map REM made, but I don't think anything obligates us to stick with the system if people would prefer we switch it up (with either snake picks, or random assignment like PB11, I guess?).
My original idea was to use that theme from the pbem where the cap had a few improved tiles, and each trait/civ game you a free building added or tile change. Like if you chose exp your corn lost its irrigation, if you chose cham you started with 3 pop. Cre you got a town. Cannot remember the game number though.
