Number of Games Per Player:

There has been a longstanding rule that each player could only have two games per fastest finish table. However, due to the database setup, more than two games per player was possible on the high score table. We have fixed this, so it is now two games per player per all tables.

(A table is defined as a top ten list generated by victory condition/mapsize/difficulty.)

Game Types:

Only single player epic games are allowed. The 'Play Last World' option is not allowed. Scenarios are not allowed.

World Settings:

Any default world settings are allowed. You may choose the map's Size, Barbarian, Landform, Water Level, Climate, Temperature, and Age settings. You may enter a seed number for the map only if you have not used that seed before in the game or the editor for a map with similar settings (Size, Landform, Water Level). You may not use other player's seeds.

Difficulty Levels:

Any of the default difficulty levels are acceptable, and will be ranked according to other games of similar difficulty. C3C games at Demi-god difficulty will be ranked against Civ/PtW Deity games. C3C Deity and Sid will have their own new difficulty rankings.

Opponents:

You may select who your opponents are. The selection must not include any leader multiple times, nor can you choose an AI leader identical to the one you're playing. This change is mainly to reduce the already tedious task of choosing a map to play on. You must have at least the following number of opponents per mapsize: (will be the same for any game type)

• Tiny: 2
• Small: 3
• Standard: 4
• Large: 6
• Huge: 8
