For the Deathmatch I think you would be picking the opponent, not the level of spectating.

Deathmatch Opportunity:
1. Native Beast - A space marine (in full armour) fights a dangerous (for unarmored humans) beast with only a chainsword. Not really fair, but its more for honing reflexes and avoiding being struck.
2. Trial by Combat - A severe grievance between two Space Marines is handled through ritualistic combat to the death OR a crime by a marine is judged through ritual combat with another marine/Chaptermaster before the Emperor.
3. Challenge of Valor - Fully equipped marine is dropped in the middle of a group of angry Xenos. How long can he survive before he has to call in support? He might be able to be extracted safely, he might not. That's the risk.

Actually, that might be a good start. We burn down our own city (the top one we dont want anymore), but we designate an opposing force to defend it against ourselves.

On Tradesea: I've started to do designs myself, rip it up if its wrong, or let me know and I'll rip it up. Caveshelters denote future trenches (only the corners are marked).

On people growing bored: If there are no wars and no pve, fighting people will grow bored. What do armies do during peacetime? They train. As in, wargames, exercises, etc. I suggest we develop some wargames or even organize military exercises with another empire. Truth is, we have no idea how a major war would be fought. What abilities are useful, which ones are junk and not worth the time, what things are broken, what strategies work, etc. I suggest a new city 'warcamp' and an agreement on a 'limited' war with one of the other top empires to only be allowed to burn that city (they build a similar city, like a red vs blue exercise). We can even each put a couple of bars of gold into the pot to give some incentive to fight/steal. One of you bored people can set up the city, the design is irrelevant (or maximum defensibility, your call).

It's been laggy for me as well, I just thought it was my internet. Guess we dwarf-rushed this thing a bit too hard.

It's complete in the sense that you're asking. But it isn't 'done'. The developer keeps bringing out new features/polishing existing features so don't expect it to ever be 'done'. Just grab it and play. It feels like a completed game and you won't ever find a screen that says 'feature not implemented'.

There is definite interest here. I've been eagerly checking for updates on a daily basis.

I like
Do the questions we have already asked count?
as a first question.

Something else to remember, as a Daedric Lord, his perception on things and ours is probably different. So even if he does give an honest answer, we might not be able to interpret it 'truthfully'.
Maybe ask him if he can hear YOUR voices.

What I meant by ignoring stupid and pointless questions are questions like:
"What's your favourite colour?"
"How much wood would a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck would chuck wood?"
etc.
Questions that both make us lose the game contest and give no useful information.

By the by, we are playing four rounds of five. Why not a single round of 20? What is the difference?
