Here's my take on Jason's ideas:
• The "all" group is placed at the bottom of the list. (It's not
useless as such.)
• Create a "Default" group and chose a number of nations equal to
maxplayers.
Using Ancient as default is an adequate idea as well. The Ancients are
after all the essence of Civilization. ;-)
This ticket isn't really the best place for this discussion. Create
another one?
