Smack talk goes here for Glacial era! Game URL: https://playyourdamnturn.com/game/6b4ff783-7233-4c54-9918-0dea3f006dba
Iāve never played with Apocalypse or Random Techs but hey, I donāt mind a fresh coat of paint every now and then.
I play with Apocalypse because the climate change is not enough and this official mod force us to take care about the pollution.
For random tech/civics, it force us (by us I mean, better players that have learn a pattern) to change their way of playing with something more random.
Iām open to remove those mods but I really think that it change the game for something better.

Hey everyone!
Iām thinking about starting the game with 7/8 players.
Is it ok for the majority? If you know someone that want to come, this is the moment 
@Ceryn is ok to join the game if we remove the āRandom tech and civics modā.
Vote for ākeepā or āremoveā the mod pls.
Starting the game as 7/8 is fine by me. I wouldāve liked a bit more, but ultimately thereās pros and cons to both.
Iām voting to āRemoveā random techs but only for the sake of adding one player and in hope that it wouldāve given us an unbalanced outcome if we had it onā¦
As I wrote on the PYDT-channel: The arguments against tech-shuffle are nothing else than: I want to play this game like 18 of the 20 games I played before. Itās more āstrategicalā in my eyes, if you have to react flexible to the opportunities, the shuffled tech-tree gives you.
So I vote for ākeepā.
At number of players: I like games with great maps and so with many players.
So my oppinion: wait one or two more weeks, until we are 10 or 12.
The feature I like most is standard-speed on games.
So if we play āstandardā instead of āquickā, I would also play with 8 people.

I agree with you on everything except the speed.
Standard is sooooooooo damn long! Quick is a good alternative between Online and Standard. Iām open to standard, thatās not a problem for me but Quick allow us more games
I also vote for Shiffled tech/civics trees because. I donāt want to learn the pattern of a Civ Master. Shuffle make us use our brain to react to opportunities and problems of the developpement of a Civilization.
As those trees are the same for everyone, it can unbalance some civ that will have specific unit or bonuses faster or slower but that the price for a real reflexion game

Ideally I want to play Online only but Quick is tolerable. Itās just way too painful to require ~10 turns to unlock a tech in hotseat games where you might not even play once a day.
I want to adapt the games I create to what people prefer.
If you want, you can vote on this Google form: Democratic civilization game
We are 8, thatās cool.
I hope that my friend @shinjoshun will come before the end of the month.
We will start in around ten days.
Weekends are a good time to āpromoteā new games on the PYDT-server on Discord. Got often 1-3 slots āfilledā, when I (re-)posted a game there.
edit: And it works better on sundays than on saturdays.
Letās make a last call tomorrow
Iād like to join, if youāll have me. Currently playing a 1 v 1 with somebody on here, and keeping up with turns nicely. Donāt play against humans much outside the family, so I canāt guarantee my skill level will be up to you-all, but Iād be glad to give it a go. Thanks!

I will create a Discord for the game + rights for everyone to create private channels.
I frequently ask my neighbors to talk on Discord.
We will had BBS and MPH to balance the game.
Discord is here: PYDT talks
Iāll had everyone from this Glacial era game to the glacial era role and you should be able to create private discussions in the Glacial Era zone.
Letās go with 10 players
