Available to join now after request: Map Master League! The Map Master League takes the very popular random map feature from the Arbitrary league and combines it with a set of standard settings and a league basis. Here's how it works:

Settings
The map is randomly decided by a random number generator, all maps are eligible as long as they are big enough for that round.
All games are multi day
Free For All
3 Day auto boot
Normal fog
Random move order
Players turned into AI once surrender (but no retaking command from AI)
Vacations are not respected but the setting of the league means players can drop in and out as they please
Full distribution
No wastelands
0% luck
No cards

How The League Operates
Games are created every 2 weeks, players can choose which games they join, or join all of them. You will be invited to a game every 2 weeks. Once a game is finished, scores are added to a spreadsheet which is publicly visible.
Points are awarded as follows: 1 point for last, 2 for second to last, etc. You do not receive points if you surrender, only if you are eliminated (as this type of ffa game can change very quickly and drastically.)

How To Sign Up
Just say so here! A new forum post is created every 2 weeks with map details, current running scores from the spreadsheet and a chance for new players to sign up.

" Players turned into AI once surender "

Very bad option. When a player has won and his opponent finally surrenders the victor doesn't want to chase an AI around the game. I think that Players become AI upon boot would be better and you can resume control once.

I will play if the rounding mode is Straight Round... (and the map isn't too bad)

Part of a free for all game with a large number of players is that people who in other games would be considered to be such a size where they could not possibly win, have a massive effect on the others players, it would be very advantageous for some players as well as being harmful for others if these players where just removed when they surrendered.

The rounding mode is Straight Round.

As long as AIs surrender when only one human remains, then I prefer turn to AI.

To give a more insight into how the league part of it works (as I fell I have been quite low on giving you lot information), there is a game every 2 weeks with scores as described each month. A total of your scores across all games is kept as a kind of overall total for comparison, but the prize to win each running, each running consists of 8 games, spanning over 4 months.
