Re: Very Relaxed, perhaps unorthodox PBEM game starting here
Actually Oriana could be better than cradle for 10 players too. The thing is that starting position often gets completely boned on non-wraparound maps, on a wraparound everyone has to worry about every directions. If you start on an edge (or even better a corner) in Cradle its a huge advantage over those who get stuck in the middle.
I'm fine with Cradle though, it just makes life slightly unfair for some unlucky random people
I'd also like to request that any 'lake' water province be designated as nostart, otherwise its really annoying to play an aquatic nation

Re: Very Relaxed, perhaps unorthodox PBEM game starting here
Ok thanks people for the Posts and for the emails.
I will be back in front of my computer where the game is installed in about 12 hours, and will start the game then. I will then no longer post here, but use our email addresses.
If you can get me your passworded pretender within 12 hours, great.
sorry so short here, much stress
till tomorrow!

Re: Very Relaxed, perhaps unorthodox PBEM game starting here
ok my Last post here; I am back at my computer; will get the game generated and out within the next couple of hours. Game is full now.
My honestly-felt regrets to all who feel that the settings/map/general deal is not their first choice.
best to all
EDIT: does anyone know how to transfer Email-Adresses put in a little email-adress-folder-thingy from one computer to the other? I use Outlook Express on a Windows 98 machine, and am technologically challenged. Merci

On your Windows 98 machine, open Outlook Express, click on File, click on Export, click on Address Book, choose a file type and click Export.
Then copy the file created and transfer it your other computer and import it into the mail progam you use on your other computer.

Re: Very Relaxed, perhaps unorthodox PBEM game starting here
Oi. Alright, I'm playing Caelum, but my Pretender keeps getting stuck. I've sent it to a third party, who'll hopefully pass it along. I'm working on setting up another address that, hopefully, won't go directly to the spam folder. -_-; Terribly sorry if I'm holding things up.

Re: Very Relaxed, perhaps unorthodox PBEM game starting here
I am the "third party" and I have forwarded the file as requested. However, if it is a pretender file, then it's too late as the game has started.
I would not vote against a restart, however, since I received a starting position that probably should have been designated #nostart in the mapfile.
