I do very much the same thing - and despite being a dom ‘vet’, i probably haven’t played half the nations deeply…

1822

QT3Hangman - Lanka please

1823

QT3Hangman - T’ien Ch’i, if it so pleases the court

1824

Ill drop in sauromatia, leaving Kelan’s anonymous friend to make an appearance…

1825

Hi I made it! Bertyos?

1826

Heya Vasan! Glad you could make it.

1827

Alright, now I need the next two players to each give me 4 characters -word, not word, numbers, symbols, just about anything in a conventional keyboard.

1828

I’d like to point out this is precisely why we don’t adjust the schedule - we went from 48 hour turns to 148 hr turns ;)

1829

This isn’t a trap - next two Hangman players each give me 4 characters so i can prepare a randomized seed and distribute the nations

1830

abc~ ?

1831

kwpf 5

1832

Haha wasnt me, think llamaserver did one of its auto-extensions because of the downtime

1833

Ok, nation distribution is up. Using random.org, the seed of abc~kwpf was used to generate a string of numbers from 1-9, and these were place alongside the list of players that joined in order(1-9) and matched to when the nation was put into the pool.

Following nations were assigned:

pyrhic (x) Berytos
akaoni (x) Lanka
sharaleo (x) caelum
direaussie (x) Machaka
kelan (x) xibalba
belouski (x) Sauromatia
turintur (x) Agartha
strato (x) MIctlan
vasan (x) TC

Map and game parameters come next - open to suggestion. Likely start in 1-2 weeks.

If anyone feels they’d like to change, I don’t have a problem with that if they can find someone that wants to swap.

1834

Sounds good. Looking forward to it!

1835

Agreed! And I got Tc :P

1836

Mmm no idea about map or game parameters. For now I will let others speak.

1837

I’m happy with anything. I’ll even swap my nation if anyone really wants to play Mictlan.

Mapwise I have no idea. Peliwyr could be a candidate, but only because it looks nice. I haven’t played it however.

Thrones? Do we want thrones? I’m happy to go back to the idea of conquering capitals for a change. Or otherwise we mulligan the gamestart if the thrones are poorly distributed.

Diplomacy. I did an open diplomacy game with Kelan once over at Broken Forum. It didn’t work overly well, and I think some rules need to be in place that go beyond the simple honour system that existed there. Because what ended up mostly happening is diplomacy just got cut off and subsequently boring for any casual observer. Naturally, I want to try it again, but I wonder if it can be tweaked a little bit.

1838

The map should have lots and lots of caves. :P

1839

suggest away strato - can you point out the thread, so i can see what visibly happened, and maybe you can put in your thoughts/suggestions for it. What failed that ‘simple honor’ couldn’t rectify?

I’ll also say that much depends on the players too. At least half the players in this game are reasonably vocal(or better), and that can have a key difference…

1840

What ratio of thrones conquered to win do you use?
