I'll do 9-player, but only if it qualifies for Valhalla.

I'll play, but prefer vanilla 12 player anon.

if it is only 9 players, it would currently be counted as a Primeval game.
9-player games skew the stats for the 12 player games. One example is that you have a 1 in 9 chance of winning, but only 1 in 12 chance of winning a regular game.
I will play regardless so long as it is anonymous.

Rather, I hope that my personal insight and unique perspective may, in some way, help make 'Alamaze' more fun, a more successful financial venture, or simply more sustainable as a long-term project.

So as posted in the Valhalla thread, what about giving The Nine 75% of Steel status points? Seems to solve a problem if not too difficult to implement.

That would be fine with me, but I have no idea if that's something that would need to be coded or would otherwise be a non-trivial task for the Valhalla crew.

It would not be a non-trivial task and, honestly, neither of us has a geat deal of discretionary time right now. I think that time would be better served on a 3rd Cycle Valhalla.
For this one, it can either be a 9-player Primeval or a 12-player anon.

OK. I will play if it's a 12-player anon, then.

Non-Pagan (seems like that's the lean)
Rex Only
Chivalry (gold bonus only, and no selection order benefit, for non-podium players)
2/week (either this or 4/4/6 has been requested, but if it's anonymous, 2/week probably makes sense)
LD
Damelon
IT
VBM
LT
Drogo
Son of Conan (chivalry bonus)
DuPont
The game has 8/12, four more to go!
