the whole three preferences thing is highly unclear... what are the rules governing this? are we to submit as specific combinations 3combination choices? and make sure not to re-use any nation more than once there-in? additionally even this method is likely to result in some people being unable to get any of there preferences? should the preference list size be expanded? will you randomly assign nations to people who don't get there choices? will it be invalid to submit as your preference for example :gath/jomon : gath/maverni : gath:ma argatha ... because doing this is almost forcing zeldor to give you gath? ... if only half of the nations get their preference will you allow the other nations to submit new preference choices? it would be a shame to assign so many nations randomly?

this map is absolutely huge and oversized for 12players i think thats why zeldor thinks it can work for 24...




also maybe the people should list there preferences publicly... that way people can choose to compete for preferences with others and risk not getting any of their top 3... and/or people can carefully make sure that they make their 3rd preference a really unpopular one so they are sure to get it... ?

Not sure about "absolutely huge", but I am not concerned with the provinces/player. If you download the map and examine it, the teams will start in their own little pocket, mostly surrounded by impassable mountains. Those pockets are laid out to be great for 1 person to do their initial expansion, second fort, etc. But for two people..... It looks troublesome.
