Dont make the 100 player into the 50th !!

If Socialists understood Economics, they wouldn't be socialists
-Friedrich von Haye
It appears that the 100-player map is drastically decreasing the likelihood of people playing the 22-player map for any significant duration. Every time I start a 22 player game, by day three, only 4-5 players are active, if that. Having 80% of the countries played by AI is a waste of everyone's time and of course offer no challenge or ranking/stat bonus. The 10 player map is just as bad...only 2-3 people usually stay in the match past day four.
Ever since free selection was removed, the 100 player map is experiencing the same problems. I started a map and was given a bad island nation...I just don't have the patience to play those countries. The other thing I grow tired of is the slower research on the 100 player map...I don't understand why this was implemented. It makes an already drawn out game even longer and more tedious. People get bored/frustrated with some research that takes 2.5 days and casual players are just not going to wait over TWO MONTHS to access rocket nukes.
Suggestion = Remove AI countries from the 22-player map...there is not much balance of where they are placed. Return free selection and normal research to the 100-player map. Reduce the 100-player map to 50 countries allowing for more core provinces, better resource balance and quicker games. It would also be nice to limit/remove trolls that declare war on people on the other side of the planet and then laugh at all the morale penalties.

your signature is annoying (takes up way too much white space and adds zero value)
hey
your opion is well noticed and I deeply care about how you feel towards this
I really hope it hasnt caused you too much distress,
if you really have a prob with it PM, I really care about your feelings towards this
and as I can clearly see how much this upsets you
I too find this upsetting, as I hate to know that you are so distressed


wauw oceanhawk, you must be fun at parties?
And actually oceanhawk, your signature IS annyoing, but I guess you keep that in good thread by being a douchebag about it, which is also annoying.
As for on topic:
I agree there are issues with people being inactive in the smaller maps, but I don't think cuttin' the world map in half will be the solution. I like the world map as it is, though yeah, I agree that research time could be shortened.
