In a recent HOF submission by Beammeuppy his game has an AI city that is size 101. The city (Niagara Falls) was founded very early by the AI (that civs second city). It stayed with that AI player until the very end of the game when it was taken over by another AI player.

I have received several inquiries about his game and the size 101 city. In response to that, Beammeuppy has provided a couple extra saves of his game so that people can try and help explain what may have happened.

You can download the saved games from the HOF Page. It is the first game under the Regent level games.
 
To add to that, it is odd what is happening. The Aztecs had just captured the city of the Iroquios and in it was a size 6. If you take the one-but-last sav and go through EOT (from 2026 to 2027 if I remember well) for some reason it goes way up from 6 to a very high number!

The originally submitted file shows all of a sudden a 101 city.

In a test done to see what happenend (some time after the submission) the city goes to 84. In the EOT a culture flip might happen (the AI suffers from these as well), still the city will go up.

Who has a clue how this is possible? btw, I switched on all animations to see what units do, still no clue.
 
Maybe the computer has 95 or so workers to move in to the city? But is the computer actually smart or capable enough to make such a move?
 
While testing made just looked at what the AI workers are doing and did not see any workers do a join city. btw, over size 6 workers can not join cities as far as I know. Also made a quick check on workers before and afte. Yes, the Aztecs go down some workers but around 10....... The game was played on 1.16f.
 
out of the subject

Hmm either the save or your copy of the game is somehow corrupt.

Did you try it yourself?

Various savs of the same game were tested by a number of players, i.e. on different installations. All with similar results!
