The dreaded Call Council Crash is still there.
We called our first council in MP (me as Hive ... my human partner as PK).
We elected him as GOVERNOR.
His system was all messed up after that ... had to reboot his PC.
We tried restarting the game at the AUTOSAVE1 ... and did things differently ... he called Council one turn later ... same thing ... we elected him GOV then his system was all messed up.
He let me know via Negotiation window before he called council (we remembered that in patch 2 it seemed that if council was called while a fellow human had some window popped up there was a problem). Well ... I did not have anything going on ... I was just sitting still waiting for his invitation to the council.
I have sent SAVE GAME files to Firaxis before and after the council.

In case it matters ... I didn't mention this:
When the COUNCIL window pops up you see all 7 factions kind of faded out in the background ... I wait a couple seconds and nothing is happening so I click on the VOTE button (or whatever it is called) ... and get a message that I have to wait till everyone has arrived. (cute message).
Maybe clicking that button has to do with it? Probably not, but might as well mention it.
