CIV 3 Storywriter's Union - Page 2

civman2000 · May 14, 2002, 18:11

that can be me...but I disagree with making it exclusive

civman2000 · May 14, 2002, 18:15

and having to be neutral. I say that if a large number of people think i'm being unfair, i'm overruled. But don't you people trust me?

Metaliturtle · May 14, 2002, 19:27

Ok Civman, I'm just trying to do something to further unite the union, so how about this, you get full country powers, and after 3 IRL months, or if it dies (which I doubt), the Union founders vote on who was the best NESser in several categories, and sanction awards and honored membership status for the winners.

Founders being you, me, cbraund, and WTE_Ozwolf (even though he came late)

As far as the scenario, I want to say between 10-12 nations, but otherwise it's your call on stuff Civman.

civman2000 · May 14, 2002, 21:18

ok...i might not have it set up until the weekend...but definitely by then (i'm thinking maybe ancient roman setup but i need a mediterranean/european map for that...)

SKILORD · May 14, 2002, 21:27

i'll be there.

glad you guys enjoy the concept.

civman2000 · May 15, 2002, 12:44

prposed map (to make a setup roughly based on the civ2 roman scenario):

Rotten999 · May 15, 2002, 13:04

The Union NES sounds cool. I'd push for a two posts a day plus short corrections rule. Otherwise, its very hard to follow.

The arbiter should also be a neutral country in the game, but I do trust you.

Metaliturtle · May 15, 2002, 17:10

Yeah, my whole thing in the one we're doing now is that there is no moderation.

cbraund · May 15, 2002, 18:09

I'd like to join a game where there was moderation, cause where I'm moderating the UKNES(Toasty's name for it) on the CivFanatics, I only play in one other one, NESII, which isn't properly moderated as Das could be biased even if he doesn't mean to be.

So I would love to join this NES that you're making! Count me in, Civman!

map in gif format. I should have the territories and civs made over the weekend, maybe earlier. I'd like to moderate but also to play an active role as a major civ. If anyone else wants to moderate instead, they can. Otherwise, is it ok is I'm still in it and not neutral but also moderate?

Rotten999 · May 15, 2002, 18:54

I'd be a neutral moderator. I'm already the Jimmy Carter/Woodrow Wilson in the other game, when I'm not being Nikita Khrushchev.

Next time, less responsibility!

civman2000 · May 15, 2002, 19:00

ok you can mod i'll play. Btw, check the succession game, it's your turn!

Metaliturtle · May 15, 2002, 19:10

Sweet stuff civman, can I be Poland again?

civman2000 · May 15, 2002, 19:19

uh...there wont be poland, itll be a roman era scenario (based on the civ2 rome scenario)

Metaliturtle · May 15, 2002, 19:21

I don't know that one, so can I just request to be the Germanic tribes which existed in that area of Europe?

civman2000 · May 15, 2002, 19:31

yeah, all of the germans will probably just be one civ so we dont have to have like 30 civs. Although they'll have a bunch of territory, they will not be very advanced or strong and have a "confederation" govt--very weak and disunited.

civman2000 · May 16, 2002, 13:08

proposed setup (zipped). The big northern countries are 3 german groups and the very little civs are city-states.

civman2000 · May 16, 2002, 18:09

gif map...feedback about anything except historical accuracy (i don't care!)?

Rotten999 · May 16, 2002, 18:11

Is "yellow" a single nation? It seems pretty divided.

Metaliturtle · May 16, 2002, 18:12

So what color is unoccupied?

civman2000 · May 16, 2002, 18:14

yellow is unoccupied...forgot to mention that

MarkG · May 16, 2002, 18:16

eeeer what's going on in crete and peleponessos(south greece)?

Metaliturtle · May 16, 2002, 18:18

I call dibs on the Maroon red that has Poland and Denmarck in it, Denmarck is so cool

civman2000 · May 16, 2002, 18:23

crete is independent to represent the navally powerful citystate of Rhodes, but Rhodes isnt on the map I got. Sparta is independent so the pelopennese looks a bit weird as a result...

civman2000 · May 16, 2002, 18:24

can someone save it to their comp and make the little area in southeast italy light grey instead of greenish...the palette is going crazy on my computer.

cbraund · May 16, 2002, 18:37

Naval power eh? I'm not sure whether to want the one which includes the UK, for obvious reasons(look at my name!), or Rhodes.

What the hell, I'll take Rhodes!

Nemesis

civman2000 · May 16, 2002, 18:42

can someone do the thing with the map? I tried but failed. People can claim civs but I warn you once I launch the whole thing you cant change so your civ may end up being pretty weak (for example rhodes is strong for its size but it's pretty small)

Metaliturtle · May 16, 2002, 18:45

Like I said before civman, I just wanna be POLAND

civman2000 · May 16, 2002, 18:55

currently working on civs in "my notepad"...it'll take awhile, there are around 15 of them!

civman2000 · May 16, 2002, 22:36
