I understand the basics. Earlier victory, higher difficulty means higher normalized score. Also the higher your "basic" score means higher normalized score. And I know wonders/land/tech all contribute to your basic score.
My question goes a bit deeper than that. I want to achieve HOF type normalized scores.
Question 1:
Does the type of victory add to the normalized score? Many of my main big normalized scores were domination victories. But all these victories I could have achieved a conquest victory in 10 more turns if I had the domination box checked off. Would I have gotten a higher score for a conquest victory compared to domination?
Question 2:
Assuming I am going for dominaton/conquest victory. At what point should I decide to end the game compared to building more wonders and increasing population? In other words, say all I have to do is take one more city to win a domination victory in 1500AD. Would I be better off taking the victory then to get a high score or building Oxford Uni, Wall Street, Stat of Lib etc and getting the dom victory in say 1560? Obviously thats just a hypothetical, I just want to how it all relates together.
