New user question

#1 Post by 2ndWhiteLine » Sat Jan 07, 2023 3:21 am

Hi,

This and 11 other accounts I control were created to fill slots in a large game with some friends. We wanted to play the 17 player map with less than 17 people (we are aware of balance issues with this), and our schedules are varied which disallows us from having shorter turns.

If you're wondering about multi accounting etc you definitely need to declare that these accounts are the same person. Go to the profile of each account and go to the relationship area and create a relationship with each of the 17 users.

Also be sure to make this very clear in the game you've set up. Hopefully very soon this will be shown via the UI directly and there will be settings about related accounts in the same game, but until that point you definitely should make that very open and clear

2ndWhiteLine is not a new user. A former admin, even? I think that this a joke.

Indeed, it’s been too long. I can’t help but notice my +1s have been reset. Shame. The one area in which I truly excelled.

We should pull the +1 leaderboard from the Old Forum. Who has the know-how?

Although this is probably a joke, it sounds like a fun variant to play.

It'd be very interesting to join an anonymous game of Fall of the American Empire IV where five players controlled two countries each, with no one knowing for sure what country pairings are controlled by the same player.
