OK, sign-up posted and mad-bax pm'ed on the matters. He's getting old and picky these days especially considering our strained relationship but it should be fine like it is. The individual team members can confirm the sign-up by posting in the same thread.

Indeed smackster and Offa have assembled formidable teams with a few strong players. But this makes the competition even more interesting.

Expect some serious ROP raping from team Offa, I can tell you of that :)

Yep, it is played by the GOTM rules hence with RoP rape, Palace jump, and all other things allowed.

Ah yes of course. Sure. Then it's a no-no for me for any further game there. [nono] I hope CDZ can win without doing this shit. [thumbsup] Go go go CDZ !!! [cool]

I have not yet done a single RoP rape in C3C GOTM (COTM). But IMO, it would be very hard to compete without "dirty tricks" and certainly not possible to win with honorable RBC tactics. Usually, the RoP rapes are rather useless since they add a few turns to the finish date but it depends on circumstances. However, it would be better to abstain from using at least most of the RBC exploits. But rumor says that RBC players reload a lot thus partially compensating for honorable gameplay. Well, in this case it is opposite - "dirty tricks" allowed but reloading is [nono].

oops, misunderstanding there. I meant to say that Killer was too late as nr 6. I don't even have civ installed, so I would make a bad subst anyway :)

eh, can someone post for me @ CFC. I am having my usual troubles there atm ;)

You mean that your double personality also has problems over there ? ;) Link ? Or at least a story ? ;)

I made a funny post a few days ago, here it is : http://forums.civfanatics.com/showpo...&postcount=140. Look at the last line. [lol]

Please, Kingreno, Meli, col, and carlos-eagle-Killer post the sign up in the CFC thread. And if carlos is banned, apparently there is no way to post, may be just pm mad-bax confirming the sign up please.

I've just looked at the Offa's team. And it actually might be impossible to beat that kind of team. I have played one SG with Northern Pike (probably the weakest player) and he's actually very strong. Others are the top CFC GOTM and SG players. I hope they will play PTW since this might be the only chance. ;)

Please note the game will start around February 7th-8th in a thread created in SGOTM forum by mad-bax and then there it will be possible to start the discussion but lets think for now of the possible strategies. It will be Despotism and then Communism with 100K culutral victory goal played as Celts.

Signed up 10 minutes before you made this post [:p]

Am firing up an SP game as we speak. I assume we are Emperoring?
