Due to the nature of the length of Civ games, its not easy to just up and start one. This thread is hopefully to gather a group of people wanting to play and get together.
There is a couple of problems, the first being timezones and the second being unstability of multiplayer games on high playercounts.
We tried this before, It was fun but no matches were ever finished so I propose that when we do play, we have a competition of say, 3 player free for alls, in a tournament style contest. I would also be willing to add a small prize for the winner.
The No Quitters group on steam who have been doing this a long time have a really nice setup so I'll post some of their links to show what the games will probably be like
