    CIV V TSG 131 Results and Congratulations

    I really enjoyed this game. I'd never played OCC before which was fun although I kept thinking 'that would be a nice place for a city...' but at the same time not having to worry about when to fit in settlers and expand was nice.

    TSG121 After Action

    I thought I copy/pasted but apparently I didn't so I think I got 1921... I had a lot of fun with this. I was never at war. I made the original three cities on the island and never expanded. I meant to but by the time I found somewhere I wanted to put one it seemed too late so just didn't...

    Is the AI Stupid or Just Desperate?

    I've only played a couple Apollo level games but it seems like the AI is much quicker to declare war. And especially if you look like you are going to win then everyone will pile on. Which actually makes sense in a way but is very annoying especially when they don't really have a chance of...

    What changes (if any) would you like to see in Civ4 GOTMs?

    This is the only one I felt strongly enough either way to place a vote and my side is really losing but I'm surprised. Saving staff time is important for sure and depending how much time would be saved maybe is enough to warrant discontinuing these but the whole point of the poll was to find...

    Future of Civ4 GOTMs

    Just seeing this thread made me a little sad. I haven't submitted nearly as many as I've started and I don't even start them all but I know I come here regularly and just love knowing they are here when I want them. So although I have nothing really to add to this thread I'm going to start...

    Do sea monsters normally attack embarked explorers?

    It seems to matter a lot what setting you are on. Anecdotal and not tested scientifically but I feel like aliens are a lot less aggressive on Frigid than they are on Lush. I believe it is true because if you read the descriptions they even all have different settings for each type of...

    News: BOTM 87 Results and Congratulations

    Grats to all the winners! This game was insane so you definitely deserve to be proud! I didn't remember actually submitting this one (although I remember the loss itself oh too well!). I need to stop submitting my super pathetic losses so someone else has a chance to collect an ambulance. :blush:

    G-Major 135

    The January throws it off... I thought it was the same at first glance and was wondering what he did to get 20k better score with same date then realized it was 10 years earlier. :) Grats to the winners! This was a crazy one but fun. I started a second game to try to improve but didn't get...

    GOTM Server is back on line

    I really hope my post came across in a joking tone. I think you guys do an awesome job and really appreciate this board and all the people here!

    GOTM Server is back on line

    GotM forum needs a visit from the sticky police! Picked this thread to post in as it's one of the examples that is probably ok to be unstuck by now. ;) What I wouldn't give for five minutes here with sticky/unsticky powers... just five minutes...

    NC166 Julius Caesar

    This is a really neat idea! Thanks for running this! I'm currently trying to move up from prince to monarch so playing at monarch level standard speed (left huts and events on - only got one hut (gold) and zero events so far). Best I remember, tech went Agriculture, Hunting, Animal...

    News: WOTM 65 - Alexander, Noble - Starts 26 Feb

    I suck at timezones other than most of the world lives in the future so I've been checking this every couple hours for half of today... it must be coming soon tho! :) Edit: It's open! It's open!

    BUFFY & HOF Mod Releases

    If it is Steam, there's apparently an update Steam released that won't work with Buffy. They need to patch the Steam 'beta' version to revert back to the one the rest of us have. Disclaimer: I haven't done this myself but I read it on the board somewhere and it seems to have helped some...

    SGOTM21 Lurker's Thread

    Completely agree! I was just commenting on the tech not the whole picture and just at that particular turn it seemed crazy how far out they got from the pack in that one thing. I thought at first they must have been the team that got the mine silver pop but they weren't. I'm guessing that is...

    SGOTM21 Lurker's Thread

    Only four of the seven teams uploaded the requested Turn 60 save but to be fair the server was down when a lot of teams hit that point. I got bored and figured it would be interesting to load up each save and see what each team was up to at that first checkpoint... All four teams have four...

    Looks fun! Is there a preferred victory type?

    Challenge-XV-07

    Thank you! :) I tried a second game with horses and it helped a lot but was still rough. Much improved though - have that game saved and may go back to it. Also added three AI so between the two was huge improvement. I did think of the corner thing but haven't generated enough maps to find...

    Challenge-XV-07

    Is it possible to deal with raging barbs without a starting metal or should I just ignore any start without copper? Defending first two cities with archers fine but can't do anything about the plundering so every improvement I built is long gone and it seems like by the time they get finished...

    G-Major 135

    Just finished 1963 which isn't good but it's my first space win ever so pretty happy about it. This game seemed to be the anti-space settings so was glad I finally got one to work even though it didn't go ideally. Might try again for a better result but not sure if I have it in me to do this...

    GOTM 111 - First Spoiler

    Mine had a big mean barb camping in the hut when I found it and he had no interest in sharing. I had to run home and get a few friends but we came back and beat him up for it eventually! Pretty sure I got a few gold from it as well 'cause I remember thinking it wasn't worth the invasion...
