Would anyone be interested?

Would anyone here be interested in possibly starting a playerworld? This will be a really big one, it's going to take quite a long time. Basically, what I'm thinking is the entire overworld will be a map of the world. Yes, the planet Earth. There will be about 4 of 5 different tribes that start in each area of the world (one in Middle East, one in North America, one in Europe etc.) and they will start from the dawn of time, the neolithic age (age of cavemen). Using their teamwork and skills, they will research new technologies, trade with other tribes, build new cities and basically carve out a civilization of their choosing. When you meet the requirements of one certain age you can advance to the next one (coppe age, medieval, renaissance, modern day, future etc Then people will be forced to continue to advance civilizations or get caught behind and destroyed...

Once one civilization has ruled supreme, the entire server will reset, and people can play it again. But I don't plan on that happening anytime soon, it could take quite a few months to win a game on this server.

So anyways, this is a really long term project, and I am wondering who would like to help me start it?

No I don't want to help.
But I have one question -
What happens when the tribes evolve to a point where the earth has been sucked of its resources and they are ultra-advanced?

They won't get ultra advanced, it would take way too long to advance to that point and someone would make a move sooner or later. As for resources, I don't know yet. I'm just wondering who would like to help

Alright, I am just gathering ideas right now. No actual level making or scripting. I want to see if this is even possible yet, with all the complex ganis and jobs and stuff. So, so far...

Any others intersted in a brainstorming session?

i'll help you brainstorm and think of ideas and stuff, but i won't work for you.

wouldn't it LAG?

next thing if one race is dominant so that would be unfair
(eg. most of the players plays europe)

We'll think of something

Worse case scenario will be that they will be put into a random civ
