Suggestion Idea: Swapping the Freestyle and Sequential buttons in the "Start A Game" screen.

Specifics: See above

Why it is needed: A great majority of games are created by new recruits using "Classic", "Standard", "Freestyle", "Escalating", "Chained". I think this is because it's the defaulted selections. While 6 players is the default, the number of players is also the easiest to understand without having to look at the rules (which most new recruits probably don't do ).

I feel Freestyle is more for an advanced player type, and that Sequential is much easier to understand. Not sure what the default play style is for the board game, but due to human limitations, I would think it's Sequential.

You mean 'sequential'

And I agree.

excelent idea and cannot be hard to implement

Yikes. Thanks for the heads up. What I had up there completely changed the idea. Fixed in the original.

i totally agree with this. it's a great idea.

only possible thing would be that if somehow an advanced player gets in a game then it will super slow, just everyone has to watch, or we make the defult 2 players

I find sequential to be faster than freestyle in 1v1 situations. In Freestyle, you get people who purposefully delay to get an advantage so their opponent is not online and ready when they start their turn. It's their way of force sequential if their opponent spreads then but still gains a continent. There's also the people that do the defacto double-turns. When it's sequential, the game just plays out because there's no benefit to taking your turn at a specific time.

noobs deserve to be punished for not reading the rules

terrible idea

Ignore misterman10. It's a very good idea.

bad idea. people will get mixed up when starting a new game and if they fill up fast then you are screwed

its a good idea, also Unlimited should switch with Chained.

I would think most new recruits would want to play right away. That's what I keep hearing time and time again, and that's how I was when I first started here. Freestyle gives them that, as soon as the game is filled. Makes sense to keep it how it is.
