Oh I forgot, does the throne room add points to the total score?

Not at all. In fact it's the other way round. Provided your throne room is switched on from the start (it's a graphic option: Control-P), your throne room will reflect your score, not help it. By the time you get to 125% it should be about full.

I usualy disable the throne room from the start...

Yeah. I dont like the throne room because it just takes up to much time. If you're a starter, and you want to see all the cool sides of Civ2, then watch the wonder movies, the High Council scenes, throne room and all that crap. But as you advance, i think that they're gonna start pissing you off and you'll turn them off.
Hell, i even turn of the "order restored" and "we love the king day" announcments...

why do I see throne rooms that look like they have more features then mine? I have MGE is this why?

What do you mean?

I believe he's referring to the stuff scattered around inside the room. And to answer your question, you aren't allowed to add the statues/extra rugs/treasure box things until you have completed all the room upgrades. In other words, you need to upgrade all the walls and the chair and the floor, and the column-thingies and the stuff behind the throne before you're allowed to put in the other stuff.

I never go for the last advance on the throne until the last moment because I think that the last throne is really ugly.
