View Full Version : A new COTM eptathlete....
ainwood Apr 20, 2006, 02:03 AM Looking at the COTM pantheon of heroes (http://gotm.civfanatics.net/pantheon/index.php?table=cotm_awards.php) prior to this month, you may have seen three people who only needed a single award to complete the pantheon - and you may have asked who would be first. Well, you'd need to look past these names, to the names of those requiring two more awards to win.
By picking-up both the 100k cultural as well as the cow award in the same game, Obormot artfully leap-frogged the rest to register the 5th COTM eptathlon award in the GOTM. It was especially interesting / amusing to see him claim here (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showpost.php?p=3802472&postcount=2):
I don't think i'll ever complete mine. Should have done the boring stuff (100K and cow) before civ4 was out But we'll see how it goes. Remember folks, that was only 2 1/2 weeks before he submitted his eptathlon-winning game! ;)
A fantastic effort, Obormot! Well done!

azzaman333 Apr 20, 2006, 04:19 AM :clap: Well done! I wish i could get a victory, let alone an eptathalon. I'll just bide my time.
PaperBeetle Apr 20, 2006, 08:26 AM Well done indeed :thumbsup:.
And a cunning ploy, to win late with a non-histo VC. Now that it is feasible to pick up awards by being the only player in a category, I guess we should see all milk runs doing this. I should have thought of it myself when I got the moo in the Spanish game - there was no 100k submission for that game!
FacuK Apr 20, 2006, 08:49 AM :worship::worship: An amazing way of get the eptathlon!!:worship::worship:
Now you must retire...:D:D
Megalou Apr 20, 2006, 09:27 AM It was just a matter of time for you, Obermot. And indeed those two goals tend to be time consuming!
Redbad Apr 20, 2006, 12:51 PM talking about grabbing a statue in style...
well done indeed Obormot :goodjob: (or should I say Übermot ;) )
Dynamic Apr 21, 2006, 03:45 AM Congratulations Obormot!
Fine to see already 3 Russian Eptathletes here...
I can't play any games during nearest monthes but I hope I will meet you in Civ4 GOTM later...

Obormot Apr 23, 2006, 06:23 PM Thanks, guys :)
I am a bit late with this and i got halve of my awards after most of the great guys already left 3OTMs, but i am still very happy :) Now i'll try my best to get the civ4 version before civ5 comes out :lol:
civ_steve Apr 23, 2006, 11:43 PM 2 awards in 1 game! A great way to win the Eptathlon!! :goodjob: Congratulations!
Htadus Apr 29, 2006, 06:00 PM It is very insperational to see some one do it in great style. Congratulation Obormot.
OwenShadd2006 Aug 17, 2006, 01:01 AM No rudeness intended but what the hell is all this? epthlan, statue, award for what? Was this some type of contest? And yes i am a total noob but hey, we all gotta start somewhere. And congrats dude to the guy who won this thing.
classical_hero Aug 17, 2006, 06:17 AM This is where the person has won the COTM or GOTM in all the 7 various winning strategies those being (Diplomatic, Space Ship, Historograph (Cow, as in milking the game for the victory), Conquest, Domination, 100k Cultural and 20k One city cultural.
