The Lobby is irrelevant. These games are usually set up to run under Direct IP to avoid the fragile GameSpy.
PitBoss can be run through GameSpy but I've not seen it.

If there is still space available I would like to join this game. I am willing to take over from AI if it has already started if not then I will just take a random civ/leader to keep it simple.

Ok I am going to launch then with the following line up
1) Magzi - England: Churchill 2) Whiplash - Incan: Huayna Capac 3) Tamijo - England: Elizabeth 4) IanDC - Malinese: Mansa 5) MMV - Persian: Cyrus 6) Test of Time - Arabia: Saladin * 7) Mightydwaarf - China: Quin Shi Huang * 8) WarningU2 - Russia: Stalin *
* Random selected in a pre setup game with the first 3 civilizations not already taken assigned in join order. As host I joined last to give all players better than equal chance of getting their preferred civilization. I think all but one got their first choice.
I will be launching game within the next 15 minutes, setting up CIVSTATS and sending welcome emails with IP Addresses. Please use this thread and email to communicate administrative game events. A separate Story / Diplomacy thread will be set up momentarily for in character game events.

Sorry Bantams - just started. I'll put you as a reserve in case someone drops out or fails to join in the next 72 hrs. The other option with the approval of the players who have already checked in is to restart. If the decision is unanimous we will restart and have you join as the 9th civ. And thank you for the birthday wishes

It's set to simultaneous moves. Players play their turns whenever they wish during each turn cycle.
The PitBoss program will rollover to the next year as soon as all players have made their moves or when the timer runs out, whichever occurs first.
