The main problem of modern TBG is the no water situation. Modern without water is a bit frustrating.

With 13 clans registered already, and possible couple more, is CTON prelim round going to have 7+ players on a small map?

The main problem of modern TBG is the no water situation. Modern without water is a bit frustrating. I played a bunch of test games today and had a lot of fun farming noobs with Knupp. With the enormous front, railroads, and Tanks, I didn't miss the water fighting at all .

Could always do a left vs right start, that setting at least has water, but alas I am sure they aren't willing to compromise on anything that deviates from the EXACT specifications they gave. Oh well, personally I'd rather forfeit then play this boring event without water!

Good idea LH. Even better would be cylindrical inland sea IMO--would give them some of their railing too.

Sorry Mookie, just trying to find a compromise between all the people that want some water and those of you that don't.
I have nothing against RaY at all, seriously! So please don't take every disagreement I have with you personally or against RaY. I can assure you that you have disagreed with a LOT more of my suggestions then I have of yours!
Thanks and GL this CCC

You can regularly catch me in the lobby getting ready to farm noobs in a modern event in the afternoon/night. Join me some time. As far as no water attacking goes, I think it's better off that way. We already played future on TBG LVR and everybody hated it. If we play modern on it, it will just be a race to flight. Once you get fighters it will be almost impossible for the other team to attack without you seeing. This basically leaves 1 good choice, rush like hell in the beginning before the other team gets flight. For some reason I think you'd not like that.

Guys we have a real problem of organisation.
It 's now 4-5 days we ask to change the map of Modern, because there are more vote for an other map, and SPM didnt respond.
Ok we can stay like this, but respond us!!!!
That's a joke that the only guys who can decide which settings will be played on ccc post on this forum just on time each weeks.
What's this joke than 2 days before our world cup we have again some no-complets event (we dont know if modern map is standart or small???).

Knupp- I am simply sticking up for the MAJORITY of civ players who want modern to have water. That doesn't mean it needs to be Left VS right TBG- I only made the L V R TBG to preserve ALL of your other settings like short turns, TBG map etc. etc. If you dont like that suggestion feel free to post another one BUT be willing to compromise- let the players have some WATER like they want. AND stop beating me up for trying!

Putting aside my recent disgust for longhorn, this another example of what I have said in another post about CIV GOD.

LH, you know I love you. I wasn't directing that solely at you. I was just saying last time we had TBG LvR nobody liked it. As for me giving my suggestion, I already did... I like TBG best for Modern but of if you are changing it to ring/hub/fractal..please NOT fractal. Starting on a 4 tile island seperated from the rest of your team, or starting on the same continent as the other team seperated from the rest of your team is just (IMO) not very fair or fun for an official CCC event. We already have a random/random game. P.S. Thanks a lot for the change to Cyndrical on TBG maps.

You know what you did and I understand how you justify it, but you also know me and you know what you did was crap and a waste of time.

I have been following the discussion. I realize the modern event being new is controversial as to map and issues like naval warfare, nukes, etc. There was no official vote on this. In the other forum thread where this was discussed -- well, the opinion was divided, with no clear winner, is my opinion.
So we are sticking with Mookie's original proposal for this CCC seeing no clear majority to change it.
Before the next CCC we will run a poll and with the experience of this CCC behind us, we can make a better decision going forward and re-evaluate TBG vs. Fractal and nukes vs. no nukes etc.
