I think Oracle had a great idea with the Greek city state Civ. Cooperation was encouraged, each city state felt fleshed out and unique and there were always multiple choices with the events. Prospective Multi-player civs should look at that for ideas

Kill all ducks.

I think a low-Fantasy Civ game with basic races would be fun. Elves, orcs, Goblins, Humans, Dwarves, etc. Keep magic as simplified as possible and don't make it too easy for the players. Fuck then over occasionally, throw in some powerful NPC factions to fight or ally against

Somebody should make a steampunk civ qst

Im not sure what it would entail, but I think its be a cool setting.

I used to play a lot of civ threads, but the dudes I played with stopped and the QMs disappeared, I love CYOA civs and have been thinking about running them, I always have tons of cool ideas for settings and whatnot, but I don't know how to put words to the ideas, and I'm not very good at improvising...

Anyone have any advice for me on how to get started or some tips or something?

Get an idea of what you're going to do and how it'll work before you start. When I've done them in the past, nothing saps enthusiasm like getting to a big problem that you have no idea how to deal with and all the players screeching at each other and you about the solution. So yeah, have a plan, write it down. Know what mechanics you're using, have a few ideas of where to take the plot (if appropriate to the style of game), have a couple of emergency back up plans.

If things do go wrong anyway and you need to change the rules you've set, do so firmly and in one go. Say 'that way wasn't working so this is how it is now' rather than 'it's not quite working, what do you guys think I should do?', because the latter will lead to a mess.

Civ threads biggest problem is discontinuity. Nobody ends it, or they leave before they do. The most important thing is to stick to a schedule or have enough time to update. I know I'm still trying to do that now.

Thanks guys

If you're going to be making a multiplayer civ quest you need two things
An interesting premise
A good ruleset. The rules have to be broad enough to allow flexibility but be simple enough to be easily understood.

You can always revise and clarify rules as you go.

Also a pretty map apparently.
