Random bad, bad, bad.
You can get seriously skewed resources on some combinations. No oil, anyone?

Random baby! 
If we're really going to 'play the game' like we are, we might as well take things as we're given, including the shape, etc. of the Earth.  That will make things more interesting and exciting, not knowing if your on an island, a huge land mass, etc.

Specify and make all average. Maybe except landmass (60%, more fun) and age (3 billion years give awesome mountain ranges, forests and jungles).

Ick, it's so close! 
*Finds some random person to vote for Random*
LoL, j/k.
[EDIT]Perhaps we should have a poll for each attribute? It might be more cluttered here, but it would allow the will of the people to be seen through more. After all, it would only make things more fair (I'd rather have each one specified based upon what people want). Then again, it would be odd if say, each individual poll said 'random', while this poll says 'specify'  .

For that we'd have to generate the map in the editor.
However, I know it's easier for random to win if it's an option in the poll (As it competes against the other options one by one, and not against all other options clumped together (as here))
(Why can't we have 28 option polls?)

LoL, you're a programmer aren't you Gramphos? Just hack vBulletin, and change the scripting, I'm sure you could do it.

I don't think the script stopps it, but an option set by Markos (the limit was 10 before, wasn't it?).

You could ask for the limit on this forum to be increased, due to the poll-driven nature of it.

I don't know if it can be set on a perforum limit without a hack. And I don't have vB myself, so I can't create a hack.

Oh well, worth a try. I suggest that you read the most recent parts of the thread about whether or not to release the .SAV file.

Well it seems I made the poll even again  (I voted Random)
But I did miss the option "I don't care" on this one.

If you don't care about how the world looks, then you are happy with random world.

There are some settings I really don't like, so I prefer to set them myself. Sometimes I just flip a coin for the rest.
Looks like my vote is currently the deciding one (Speccify)
