I voted skipping evolution. I thought you were against that.

I thought you and BokaBB ALREADY skipped evolution, since you were designing creatures now.

Hello there. I was watching what is happening from my laptop for some time since I did not knew where my phone was. Fortunately I found it.
Please respond to my last message.
The opinion with the most supporters wins.

If so, then I vote for evolution. I need to make this clear: I'm mostly useless for the human civilization part, I'm only really helpful to getting TO your civilization, but if we skip evolution, plate tectonics, and planetary formation, there's not much I can do to help you people out. :(

I just sent a PM to them saying that the alien biosphere thread is just for that, so I don't think we would necessarily need to do that.

1-2 meters is probably good. Maybe they could be ambush predators.

I have no idea. Give me some ideas how they could evolve. Also, when I said ,,a little bigger",I thought of any bigger size than that of bats.
Maybe abnormally large birds? I'm not sure why they don't exist today. Maybe they just don't have to be that big.

Are you okay with dinosaurs then? I think animals like Paraceratherium are large enough. There also used to be elephants close to that size.

Do you like the idea of giant (2-3 meters) predatory rodents? They would ambush any animal too close by. Rodents that big have existed before FYI.

Creatures similar to today's I guess. I don't know much about prehistoric ocean depth dwelling animals. One thing that would definitely exist is bioluminescence.
Edit: Also deep-sea gigantism.

Well ― I think I meant that the civilization whose cities look Venice-like, and cities are connected by waterways rather than highways?

Okay. Interesting but would either require a natural lagoon or an island chain or quite advanced technology as they would need to either make their artificial rivers connected to the sea to get water that will not be drinkable (removing one of the possible reasons for doing that) or to somehow spark a reaction in the mountains that will create a river
and that will flow from it,but the second option is very hard to do and unpredictable and so unlikely.
Channels between river are far more likely and were indeed made in China.
Can you please suggest some animals that will be here?

You had said you wanted humans and they are the only animals on the planet which we know to be very intelligent. I think we should choose humans. But we could change them slightly. For example, in The Refugium, there is a lot of ethnic variation. They differ a lot in height and skin tone, for example. There is even a race with very little hair and another one that can't even breed with others. You might even call it a different species. Do you like this?

The people that lost most of their pigment should probably live in an Antarctica - like continent. I always wanted to make that!
Should our planet have moons and what they would be like?If they are close enough they may have geologically active altrough I do not have many ideas how that could affect the planet. I would like there to be more than one moon. What do you think?

It should be at least somewhat close to other landmasses so that humans could go live there. There must also be a warm water current to keep it from getting too cold.

I thought you had wanted this planet to be as Earth-like as possible, but I guess two moons is okay. They would certainly cause larger tides (if they are close enough). I don't know if they can make the host planet more geologically active though.

Probably.
I am not sure,but various sizes may improve things.
I do not speak about the geological activity on the planet but on the moon (s). Moon was in the earlier periods when it was closer but is not anymore now.

We could have different sized moons to create different sized tides.

I don't think the planet is nearly big enough for tidal forces to cause geological activity on the moons. You hear of stuff like that happening on moons of giants like Jupiter.

The moon(s) would probably be at similar distances to current Earth-Moon distance.
The former geological activity of the Moon was likely because of the fact that it was closer to us then.
I know well about the moons in the Solar System.
Pluto and Charon are also likely geologically active because of each other.
We need a map more and more with every message.
How would the lives of those people who live in an Antarctica - like place be?I would like there to be as few plants as possible in that area.
