PTW Democracy Game II

[Jon Shafer]

In the chatroom, a few of us from the first PTW DG were bouncing around ideas to start up a 2nd PTW DG here at Apolyton. Everyone seemed to love the idea, and the only question would be if there would be enough support to start a second game with enough teams of adequate size.

Our goal is to provide people with the opportunity to get involved and help start a new fresh game for people who want more fun or didn't get a chance to get involved when the first game started up. The idea is to have different team themes from to the first PTW DG, so we're taking suggestions on team themes as well.

If we get at least 30 people interested, I will talk with Markos about the possibility of opening up PTW DG II (right now we are over halfway there).

Go to this thread if interested.

hi ,

great idea , ....




have a nice day

We have some room for more members. If you missed the start of the last game, this one is for you. It promises to be fun for everyone and will let everyone be involved, from the newset person to the game to the old bags of dust wandering around here.
Don't hesitate, sign up; it'll be a blast.

Great idea! In fact, you just posted in a Forum in which such a thing is already happening. It's just starting - people are deciding on the first move of the game right now.

So, if you're interested, become involved now!

Ahhh - you probably mean multi-player, don't you?

Yes, BFM. Alah PTWDG II

Some people missed out the start of that one, myself included, so here's a chance for some to get in on the 'ground level' so to speak.

I really thought Trip miscounted the number of DGs there, until I realized that he meant intra-site team games.

The SP demo game that is just starting is also based on PTW, you see.

Maybe we should come up with new game naming system...

I've quoted various team member's commenting about their teams choices below just to give you an idea of what is going on.


Team Sunshine
"The friendliest, happiest, most positive team on the planet. Peace loving. Share the love! No conquests, just massive Love-fests where Team Sunshine takes the party to your cities and tries to "share the love" with their neighbors."


"Yes, join the Sunshine Team and spread a little bit o' lovin' and peace. Life is short so why not enjoy it!! "


"A LITTLE BIT OF SUNSHINE TO BRIGHTEN UP YOUR LIVES




Team Tabemono [Food Team]
"It's not just dinner, it's a BATTLE!"


"Since Team Sunshine seems to be winning all the converts, allow me to turn the tables by introducing the mascot for Team Tabemono, Hamu!"



"What is the ham saying?" "he's saying "Tabemono" of course! It's Japanese for food! Mmmm... tabemono..."




Team Monty Python
"He who would join the Fully Monty Must answer me These questions three Ere the other side he see.

What...is your name?

What...is your quest?

What...is your favorite color? "


"Members to be encouraged(but not required) to create a team character, drawing their Monty inspiration from any movie, show, or skit they like."




Team of Misinformation[Mohammed al-Sahaf Team]
"This is going to be the brightest and strongest of all teams that ever existed in this world, and will destroy all the infidels that are seen crawling in the mud beneath us, especially those ridiculous Eddie's lovers, whom seem to carry some pestilence in their breaths."


"Our words are NOT backed by biological, chemical or nuclear weapons!"



"Members of this team's posts must always be blatantly obvious falsehoods, and must be done with all seriousness.

Our team is not attacking Sunshine.

What do you mean not attacking us? You just threw a "Mammoth Stack of Shivering Workers" at our Pikeman.

They were bonding."




Team Izzard
"If you want to join, the only requirement is that you love Eddie Izzard!"


"In terms of actually playing the game, we're gonna be very relaxed about it, obviously. It'll be more like a succession game than a demogame from our point of view. No structured government style, any player can play the turns (we'll try to rotate it, depending on who has free time)"


"It's the sound effects that really makes that one.

"Hi, I'm crazy Eddie. I put babies on spikes! Wanna rack-o-baby?"

"Ooh-eee-ooh-eee, THOOOM.""

Holy thread resurrection.

FYI to those who may be interested:

My team ("Cake or Death?" referred to in the previous post as "team Izzard") is in need of more members. We currently have all of 2 active members, and as the game progresses, that just has to change. So anyone who is interested, please let me know.

I should also mention that the Gathering Storm (my PtW DemoI team) can also always use fresh blood. But it's Cake or Death? that really needs a transfusion.

The game is currently at 2430bc, if memory serves, so it's quite early (whereas the first demogame is into the AD years).

So, to any of you who might want to get in on the whole multi-player democracy game thing, here is your chance.
