So far noone thinks that the nutters will win. This would have been very interesting to see who voted for a team that was not their own. :hmm:

who are the guys who are celts, my moneys on them, cause the greeks well there defensive, TnT think there to cool and the doughnuts are to busy fighting TnT to get around to wining, but i haven't looked at the save much so i dont really know. But really the "moral" winners are doughnuts for surviving the immortal hoards.

I agree with that too. As for the game itself, its too early to say in my opinion, there is a long way to go and many things that can happen to change the balance of the game.

Sightly off topic, will all the teams forums be opened up at the end of the game, as i think it would be interesting to see what the other teams were doing.

I'll make sure everyone who is interested can access the fora after the game. I'll even upload the biq, if you want to.

Everyone knows that the agrarian Civ trait is too strong compared to the other traits, readily admitted by some Firaxis programmers. This has been corrected in Civ4, and alas, too late for C3C. My team (TNT) misguided chose a non-agro Civ to play before I joined, which is reflected in the civilization growth in sheer numbers. The very reason Iron was non-agro and Iroq was agro, was the very impetus for the said war. Another factor was the rule discussions, which had secondary motives. Enough said, I play the game for the drama, and whatever outcome is acceptable, it is just a game.
The Celts surely leads, which is great on a balanced map. But keep in mind the various dynamics played out in the rule discussions, superiority of agro trait and balance of powers on the various continents.

The game is not as balanced as it may seem, not due to the map, but due to the agro trait. At Apolyton, their Multi Team Demo game had omitted/banned all agro civs, so they played with Egypt, Babylon, Carthage, Persia, Chinese and Mongols. This actually balanced out that demogame to keep it exciting.

Provolution you are correct but every team had the choice of traits and we didn't even get our first choice. :p

As I tell my team all the time. I love all you guys, man. :cry:

PS I voted for Doughnuts just because...

Thanks Provolution for confirming what Team Doughnut has thought from turn 1 of the war, that it was started for illogical, illadvised, irrational, illfounded motives on your part. The agrarian arguement while sounding rational on the surface, is illfounded when you look closer and as far as the whole renaming issues goes (i assume that what rule discussions is refering to) you were trading pot shots with KISS and MIA not us, so i don't see why that was a secondary motive at all.

Guess what, Greek isn't agricultural either...
If your team is actually the best, the traits shouldn't matter :D

It really depends on how you use those traits. Noone at MIA is complaining that we choose an non argicultural civ. We got our first choice civ so we cannot complain. Each trait has some advantage and it is how one uses that advantage to there advatnage. End of my Threadjack.

I think KISS then doughnut tied with MIA have the best shot. If doughnut keeps the war up until knights, and goes out and rapes TNT, doughnut will win. KISS has is the best off, beacuse to stay ahead requires not dramactic action. MIA is doing okay. TNT is the worst off. Their military is in poor shape, and thier immortals have not helped then in any real way.
