It looks like if everyone in the group is in for the game we'd have 6 players. We could throw in two computers, leave it at six and just go or try to find two more people. Thoughts anyone?

You have not missed it. I was sort of busy with wedding planning so I postponed trying to get things set up. I'm done now though and I'm also still game. Plus Civ has been on sale all the time lately so maybe we can snag a couple more players.

Did I miss this? Or did it ever get off the ground? I'm still game. I should probably play a few games first though. Been awhile.

Yeah. I think there will be varying levels of xpacs so we'll just see what people wanna do once we have enough players.

My version of Civ V is vanilla. Will that work?

Members should be able to add new members but yeah, you might not be able to via phone. I apparently can't add people who I'm not "friends" with so I friend requested Josh.

User ytseone is Josh Scott. He'd like to join this game but I don't think I can invite people. Or at least I can't from the phone app.

Oh, also I still have an extra copy of Civ 5+Xpacs that I bought for my brother for Christmas before realizing that he already had it. So if anyone knows someone who would be interested in this but doesn't have the game, they can have that one.

Alternatively if we can't get enough people together for a full 8+ player game, we could throw some computers in and play against them.

Correct. I figure we'll get enough people together and then schedule a "draft" where we pick civs and play through the ancient age all at once to get the game rolling and then we'll run the game day to day after that.

Cool. I just wanted to make sure the game hadn't started and I wasn't logging in correctly or something.

Finding more people who want to play, I guess? We can have up to 12 people but I figure we should try to get at least 8 people for it to be a properly sized game.

Am I supposed to be doing something?

Members can all invite to the group so if you all know anyone who has the game, see if they are interested.
