I was having a think on civ and sometimes there are pockets of unsettleable terrain e.g. those islands where there are eight mountain and/or marshland tiles in a row and even the AI with its culture bonuses wouldn't reach and was thinking, basically: how would you ‘upgrade’ barbarians to keep...

T-Rex the dinosaur explains how his favourite suffix is -cracy here, in one of the greatest moments of Dinosaur Comics. The thread title refers, of course, to the fact that radioactive monkeys rule. If you would like to dispute the rule of the radioenergopithecoi, well, this is the place for...

On the one hand, my afternoon out was cancelled. On the other, I am here to start a new thread and hold the Raves and Rants threads simultaneously with the Altered Maps and TV Shows threads as well! Most recent: Random Rants 92 - Not Enough Snerk

Hello, everyone! On regular (epic) games I have finally managed to successfully conclude a few games on Emperor almost consistently. Now somebody has… let us say enticed me to play a one-city game¹ and I would like to ask other people about their experience with such a peculiar game mode. (1)

I'm not sure whether this has to do with Xenforo or is a separate issue, but on this page the formatting is displayed instead of rendered. There might be others; I haven't checked them all.

What serials have you been watching on your television set, oh townsfolk and burghers of CFC? Speaking of towns and burghers, Castle still rocks. Previous threads: What TV shows are you watching? What TV shows are you watching? β' Which television shows are you watching? Part III Which...

The title of this thread is simple: today I ate pizza. …remember, when the emperor looks naked, the emperor is naked; the truth and a lie are not “sort of the same thing”; and there is no aspect, no facet, no moment of life that can’t be improved with pizza. Thank you. (would've been my...

Today a series of random posts in a Discord server for Civ3 modding resulted in an idea coalescing in Takhisis' mind… So… has anybody created underwater resources and/or detailed underwater terrain tiles? Because I was thinking whether converting regular ‘land’ tiles into sea-bottom tiles...

With so many sequels that it would sicken even the Disney executives in charge of Marvel and Lucasfilm, here is the ninth sequel to the original thread, i.e. the tenth thread overall. Here are/were the previous threads: Coronavirus: the thread where it all started (Wuhan) Coronavirus 2: the...

Once again I get bragging rights we need to start a new thread. You might have noticed that in both Greek and Cyrillic numerals the letter Qoppa stands for the number 90, hence the above numeration. Also, Q is a rant by itself. Oh, and, Synsensa, if you don't like the title, next time try...

There really, really is. Older threads: The alpha version The beta version

Uncle Takhisis is fat from a year of lockdown, bearded because he refuses to shave and red because of all this summer sunshine. And he is ready to stop clipping his nails at a moment's notice in order to morph into San Tak Claws. He brings you all a giftie, though: a mafia game! Sign up for...

Every now and then I see this bug resurface. See the post above. If you're using Modern CFC then you won't notice it, because all the text above will be displayed in black over a white background. But in fact everything is not the same. Everything after the post with ‘Biden’ is coded to be...

Eighty-fifth iteration of this thread. The former thread title referred to the fact that our postcount from serial threads is not being counted. Now it's back to general Daria!Takness.

I hope that you can tell that I've recently watched The Incredibles. Previous threads: Part One: What Movie(s) Have You Recently Seen? Part Two: What movie(s) have you recently seen 2 Part Three: Which movie(s) have you viewed lately? - Episode III Part Four: Which movie(s) have you seen...

The 83rd iteration of this thread it is! It is once again my turn to restore the supremacy of the Geek Orthograph Church. Archetypical parental guidance exhibited here:

(the subtitle for this edition of the thread is an allusion to the fact that people still make Doom maps and mods after all this time) (also insert here Takh's insistent recommendation of this wonderful game called The Battle for Wesnoth which you really should be playing, especially in a few...

You don't like the Greek numerals for 81, that's a paddlin'. You think coffee is better than tea, that's a paddlin'. You try to snatch this thread from me, oooh, you'd better believe that's a paddlin'.
