Default Chinchilla - Running

I've decided it might be a good idea to host another game for new/newish players.

I'm thinking around 10 players or so (we'll see how many we get, anything over 4 is good fun), and a not-too-large map - maybe around 15 provinces each. In my experience this is plenty big enough for lots of interesting things to happen, but not so big that it can get overwhelming. We can sort out details when we see how many players we've got.

Edit: I think we'll probably play on Cradle of Dominion, if we can get enough players (12-14 perhaps), since I think it's a nice map.

Edit Edit: Woohoo, we filled up! Cradle of Dominion it is.

Oh, it'll be an MA game.

It's up to you to decide if you're "newish" enough. If you've played only a few MP games, I reckon that's good enough. SP games don't count I think - it's a surprisingly different skill.

Please post here and choose a nation if you'd like to play.

We have:

Machaka - Burnsaber
Caelum - Chicanist
Agartha - Salamander8
Abysia - Valerius
Jotunheim - Sleet
Arcoscephale - AreWeInsaneYet
Pangaea - Ubercat
Marignon - Warhammer
Oceania - dementd
Pythium - sum1won
C'tis - parcelt
T'ien Ch'i - IndyPendant

Man, Tower of Avalon. I am currently playing my first MP game for either Dom2 or Dom3 on Gandalf's Blitz server.

I've been in 3 MP games so far (still in 2 of them), so I consider myself pretty new.

I'd like Agartha.

I think I still qualify as a newbie (4 MP games, none finished). If that's too many, no problem, otherwise I'd like Abysia.

Arrr, ye stole my beautiful Caelum already...
Ah well, I'll take R'Lyeh then.

For the record, this would be the second MP game for me.
The other one is on turn two.

I'll take Pangaea, please. I'm in my first three MP games right now, and not doing too hot. I especially screwed up the one I'm playing Pangaea in, so maybe I can do better with them this time.
