Looking to play a team based pbem...
i'm fairly new so trying to find a balance or players..

i know Mauer mentioned he might be interested as well...

I only have the vanilla 1.61 version but I'm going to get BTS shortly after release..

Thoughts, ideas?

thanks

so basically there's two on the short bus, we could use some escorts and a driver

3vs3 is just too many for a pbem for my liking im afraid, even at a quick rate we'd only see the save 1/2 a week and it would take forever to finish.

yeah we have a 2 vs 2 vs 2 PBEM and it's died at least 5 times. Currently it's not breathing

I'd be interested to be in a team with Tubby and BCLG...

Seriously, maybe then it should be played kind of like a DemoGame, meaning that everyone can play for every civ of his team.

Don't know.

At least I'd be interested in another PBEM... I am still playing only one, my first, and it hasn't finished yet (although BCLG will surely bash me pretty soon...)

Good points guys, I'd almost fancy a MTDG type thingy. That is, since most of you twerps aren't as twerpy as people on the other site.

The 2vs2vs2 civ3 game we had going went very nicely on the first 75 turns. Then something went bad.

I think this kind of game are possible with:
- Accelerated production.
- Very dedicated turnplayers.

1 way of doing it is for both players to have a joint gmail account, that way either can play each others saves.
