If it is binding it should all be done in the form of PMs. I think the idea of no lying is great, and instead people will have to be clever with their wording!

[GrudgeBringer]

Yes usually you negotiate by PM but register it in the Forum...

Say Sauro and Lanka form a 3 turn Nap or 5 turn or 100 turn though 3 turn is standard).

That way when you want to break it you just go to the forum and say" Sauro gives notice on turn 23 that the Nap with lanks is broken. Hostilities will begin on turn 26 (if you DON"T cout the turn you break it oR turn 25 if you DO count the turn you break it.

That way there is no doubt in anyones mind and no arguments that someone jumped the gun...

Now thats in a BINDING diplomacy game.

In a non binding you can do it any way you want (but I promise you ther ewill be pages of yelling aback and forth (LOL), which is what you asked for!!

[GrudgeBringer]

Here is what I propose (Changable of course) we have to start somewhere. IF we get a concensus we can get it going.

Mods 1.5 Magic standard Graphs ON HOF 15

Indie strength 5 Random Event Common Renaming ON

Starting Province 1 Map..Cradle of Dominions (not the MP its HUGE) if a small number, DarkHeavens if a lrger number of players.

DO NOT PUT A PASSWORD ON YOUR PRETENDER So we can set to AI if need be.

Hosting... 24 Hour Quickhost until we feel the need to raise it to 48 (usually between 25 and 35 turns).Victory can be Last man standing or a percentage of Capitols, depending on the number of players.

6 to 10 Last Man standing Over 10 percentage of Capitols.

Diplomacy Binding (vote on this).

Feel free to PM me with questions or opinions.

Nations...NOT YET Submit 2 nations when the time comes to join and we will try and work it out so everyone gets a chance at there nation (I suggest you DON'T pick 2 nations that you KNOW everyone will choose. We will also need at least 1 brave soul to play a water nation if possible.

Let me know ASAP if this suits everyone or we need to change something..

Yeah Frozen Llama, that I guess can happen but I would rather have a chance at some clams too rather than just the fist guy to Const 8 get them and roll over evryone.

If they are there for everyone, then its thier choice to get them.

Just my opinion...

well, someone getting a single clam isn't too amazing. remember const 8 means you get only 1 of them.

but its your guy's game, so go for it lol.

[GrudgeBringer]

ahhhhhhhh, LOL...

Guess they would only get one

seems like most want to try and get there hands on everything they can and being a Noob game I think learning about them good and bad is a good thing.

Thanks for the info though...

Two things - 1) money, resource, supply multiple at 100 is the default setting for the game, so I am not sure why you guys are talking as though that is abnormally large. Anything above or below 100 would be abnormal. 2) I don't care one way or another since I'm not playing, but in the next version of CBM QM is likely to make all gem generating items artifacts, which would be the same as the no hoarding mod. You can play with clams if you want, but I thought it might be good to know that at some point they will become non-standard.

I think we could accept de settings of Black Sun Empire, her original idea, with this we doesn't complicate the game and if before we were agreed, now also we can be, with this we would can avoid a cooling of the interest for this match.

We should organize a effective voting.

If some options like map are not good already because we are more players so we can change it. And Grudge you could begin to write the list of players, this can hel to a good organization. Count with me.
