We can easily get in a few turns before the 10th if we post fast enough. Maybe even my awake Pretender could be at an enemy capital in that time. Let's see!

And with my luck it will be MY capital KN. And that'd mean you wouldn't have to worry about my upcoming absence xD

How damn are you to choose the map which was designed by drunk Grimwulf?

Either we restart with a normal connections or I go AI.

Anyways, taking out the starting locations and putting our fate into the hands of game's algorithm is not that much work.

What is a pain in the ass is adding nostarts to all the provinces with too few connections. If you feel that'd be necessary.

Hm. Could someone, preferably drunk, add like 4 UW spawn points and 2 cave spots? I don't know anything about maps and I'm too lazy to learn.

Will take a look(quietly changes Pangaea to fixed start large farm province with 5 connecting many sites provinces). :M

Ok I made connection from 10 to 49 a thing. Added some caves where it made sense aboveground. Put in a couple cave starts for sad Agartha. Added a couple extra water starts that may or may not be imbalanced(we don't need 5 do we, it's a little cramped and I'd hate to see two start so close by). Changed some mistakes like cave/border mountains into cave/forests.

Anything else? I'll review and put it on google drive later tonight.

add 203 to 207
add 89 to 102
remove 10 to 25
add more funny names

Thanks. Funny names? "Submit Your Turn Muty" on a throne? That kind of thing?

Edit: I don't really follow general codex humor so I'll pass on the names, except for the Muty one, because it makes me chuckle.

Along with 4th of July's suggestions:

Removed 238>276 connection.
Made 151 a cave.
Made 221 a cave(moar caves!). Changed name from Trolling of Some Great Bell to Tolling....unless I miss the joke.
Made 188 Border Mountain/Cave(start).
Made 1 a cave start(Not sure on this. Not many great choices that aren't too close to other starts mondblut ).
Made 32 a cave.
Made 293 a cave.
Removed 10>33 connection.
Made 46 a start, but not perfectly balanced(it's a better start than others).
Moved throne province from 3>4(underwater) so start at 1 isn't bordering two thrones.

Could possibly make 323 a cave start and remove many sites tag.

Should we make all above ground starts farms? Or remove? Right now it seems 50/50. I don't personally have a problem with some random imbalance. The cream rises to the top as they say.

Edit2: Do farms even matter for start? Doesn't seem so. Added UW start to 220, as there was a weird duplicate start bug when I did a couple test games.

Here's the map file, I'm headed to bed. Make sure it's not shit kthx.

I wouldn't mind either way, played games with worse and better starting positions.
I mean, what could we lose? If we restart now, I'd bet it would be less than a week or two until the new game begins.

We restart, with the new map gracefully provided by KN. KN and July get honorary titles to acknowledge their selfless efforts.

Please take care to use the most recent turn file, I accidentally started the game once omre without changing the map :D
