2 v 2 [In Prgress... again]

Hi guys,
I am interested in starting up a 2 v 2.
My team mate will be Lazyboy. We are both reasonably experienced players and we wil be operating under a unified command structure ( supreme commander).
We will accept any challengers.
I am involved in several large team matches and I personally find them more enjoyable than single matches.
I expect that we will play one and occasionally two turns per week and that the game will last 6-8 months (based on past games)

The game settings will be as folows:
xx-large map
no shroud, but fog of war will be on
full nations
use resources
full climate range
dry world-pangeac continents

As for the map, when I generate a game, I am so worried that my opponents will cry foul, that I keep regenerating until it is very even, or I start with slight dis-advantage, so be assured that you will have an equal chance to win at start of game.
We will begin as soon as we have two opponents.

I am new to the forum and not the most experienced if you can't find any better takers I'll give it a try. Confused on setting Pangea means only one continent but the description states continents does this mean continents with a naval element or just one continent.

Pagea continents just seems to keep them larger as opposed to giving you a continent and several small useless islands on the periphery.
We would be happy to get you in on this.
One more stout heart then.

Ironduke has a good idea what is involved in running an organized team.
It is all just for shits and giggles anyway right?
Ok, we posted the challenge, you gentlemen may choose your Supremo, generate map and go first.
I entreat you to be noble when generating the map and to try to obtain a map that is more or less equal. (eg. no one's capitol isolated and undefendable).

xx-large map
no shroud, but fog of war will be on
full nations
use resources
full climate range
dry world-pangeac continents

We generally play these with no PBEM protection (so we can save, turns take hours sometimes).
Up to you gentlemen in that regard.
Send me and email.
pas.x@hotmail.com

I will create a game dropbox and invite.
Good luck, have fun.

I just realized that our team is Mean and Lazy. For some reason that made me think of my ex.
Have you guys started?
Do you want me to make dropbox?
Let me know.

I intended to let you generate the game and go first as a gentlemanly gesture.
This way you can be sure that you wont get screwed on rail and or city placement and you have the first chance to declare war.
I trust you to be a man of honor and to not try to deliberately screw us.
XX-large
4 player
no oceans is best but dry world is ok
fog of war but no shroud,
full nations
use resources
Map loop on
I prefer no PBEM protection as these turns can take hours to complete.
I am ok with it on or off but prefer it off.
Paul

I did make a map and went to Random.org and rolled for starting positions I won Hatem was second and you were last so I decided nope I will let someone else do it. Perhaps in the future incarnations of the game vic can include a auto die roll for starting positions that is transparent. Until then since its your party you can make the map and decide who gets to go first.

we usually run thes things like this, both of one team goes, then both of the other, with supremo going first for each team.
If I am first then Lazy should be second. You guys are still welcome to go first or we will, dont matter.
Just rename the game in the dropbox and carry on.
Meanie
It is fri night and I see you are online, we can get it sorted while we are both here.
