EDIT: Get the game here.
A game of Civilization 2 played by a Reddit user named Lycerius has caused a lot of interest. This Thread is a more direct discussion. Many people have expressed interest in playing out the game and trying to break the stalemate described. Lycerius has indicated that he will upload a saved game.
Pending approval by the forum moderator Magic Gorter, we plan to organize the playing of this game as Game of the Month 136 (GOTM 136). Our hope is to create an "official" ranking of the attempts at winning this game, as well as a method of certifying that games were played without cheating.
If you are interested in playing in this competition, please vote in the poll. This will allow us to gauge how much interest there is in this competition beyond the semi-regular GOTM participants. This may impact decisions made by the Administration Committee (or if we even need one).
If you are interested in being a part of the Administration Committee, please make a post indicating so. Membership on this committee is limited to active participants in the Civ 2 community, including those who were active in the past. If you are a "returning" member interested in helping out for this project, please include a few links to threads that demonstrate your participation.
Actual Committee discussion will take place in the GOTM forum.
