Looks like my methods are quite poor. While I DID get Great Engineers (note: I'm a CE with Parthenon), they did not go to building wonders so far (I built most of my stuff manually), rather to lightbulbing techs, and as we all know, Scientists get more beakers than anyone else.
I haven't played my Round 4 yet, I can do it on Thursday and Friday (my days off from work).

will do ~
nice graph. perhaps you could forward me or pm it to me to use as a base for adding on other players.
I would rather wait on rd 4 to see if more people are oging to post rd 3. I will take a look at what we have, and make a determination when we've waited too long. I want the rounds to be about 1 per week so that if you have a tighter schedule, you can still participate.
finally, blid ~ i did click the link, but the page was "not found"

Get a GM and burn him on Metalcasting. Things are looking tight in the war: having to block Sury at Ravi so that his cats dont smack the city under tree cover. Send some units over to Isvar, and try to tempt an axe out of the city by moving an unprotected cat outside the city. Sury takes the bait and I claim the city next turn.
Discover CS in 580 and whip Big Fella in 660AD. Lose a city site to Khmer by two turns, so I found in a the runner-up spot:

Am I glad I finished this game and immediatly wrote my reports down back in the days that I actually had spare time.
Ah the good times...
EDIT : Techs and cost of techs added.

So, i've been putting off writing this, but it needs to get written.
This game is going nowhere, and I think I am mostly to blame. My RL time has drastically shrunk since the beginning of the year as I'm preparing for exams to become a teacher (which are the middle of next month).
the game started off well, with LOTS of interest, but it has been steadily declining. I think there might've been a bit of MLG burnout, but I also think that my lack of stewardship has contributed a fair bit, too.
So, the question is, then, what to do? Obviously, I AM still interested in the concept of the game, but can not devote the needed time right now. If people are still interested, I would gladly hand over the game to someone else to captain. Another option might be to actually start the game I wanted to in the beginning: two SGs with same start, with the two different economies.
I don't know ~ i'd like to get some feedback about possible directions here, so any input is welcome: good AND bad.

Well Pholkhero I think you are correct in interest waning in the MLG series but wrong to blame your stewardship but more it was just down to MLG burn out.
So what am I going to do?
Well I will play my game out to a finish in 40 turn lumps ( I think we are at the stage where 50 is too much)
I will post reports etc
And I will do some analysis of other people's saves (starting with mine, Quotey and Shadzy's when Quotey has posted)
Other participants are very willing to chip in!!
Reviving the MLG series.
1. I would suggest a month or two off..
2. Come up with a cracking idea
3. Then restart.. (book me a place!!)

This just came at a really bad time for me and I could never muster the enthusiasm to continue after my sleep-deprived start. I think there was probably a bid of MLG overkill happening in general as well.
I agree with Ralph that after a bit of a break, we might be able to get the series back on track.

I finished my game in the week this game stared , I kept on playing 50 turns/turnset however.
I would prefer to keep posting them and keep this MLG alive and have at least some people finish their game.
The only problem for me is that I forgot to write my report for the finish of the game immediatly and lost my notes , I still got some screenshots though to help me reveal the most important stuff and If I remember right my finishing turnset was something like a 55-60~ turns although I can split those up.
Il have to check up on that when I get a chance to open Civ4
This is only my first (and probably last MLG due lack of time) so I dont know if the series need a break to get people intrested again , I for one very much liked the idea for this MLG.
Just give me a ring when to post the next set
