Unofficial Poll: Should We Have Turnchats?
With so many people and the inherant slow nature of PBEM, this poll is designed to see who supports the idea for having a turnchat system to help speed things up (no times/dates decided yet... this is just to see if people think it's a good idea to have at all).

Check out this thread for more information on this and other possibilities.

This and an smaller map are the only way we are going to get this game done in a reasonable amount of time.

Voted yes, but I fear it won't be convenient when there is more work. But for the beginning of the game, I think it's the best solution.

I like the idea too. It's the best way of playing a large number of turns in a short period of time.

Once each Civ has 6-7 units and 3-4 cities it might not be practical, but is an excellent way to get the game started.

I don't understand how exactly turnchats will work.

Several turnchats at the same time (one by team) or only a turnchat for all the players ???? Or both

A turnchat where all the team game players get together and play their turns and pass them on quickly so as to get a lot of turns done in a short amount of time. Mainly what we're talking about is an 'interteam' turnchat system rather than an 'intrateam' one.
