A simple drum roll, trumpet fanfare, and a 21 gun salute might not be enough to fully recognize how fantastic the results of Gotm19-Ottomans really are.
The final count of valid game submissions that can be scores and ranked includes 243 submitted games for this event and this represents a 53 person increase over the Celts game in April which had also set a record.
In addition to the fanatistic volume and diversity of submissions for this game, we also saw several exciting firsts in this game.
Many of the victory conditions showed 40 or 50 different approaches to achieving victory and could in effect allow us to analyse whole groups of games as if they were their own individual groups with a specified victory objective.
The top three games submitted for this GOTM were all based on Conquest victories using the awesome power of upgraded Sipahis(Balkan Dragoons) to destroy the world.
The 2nd and 3rd place submissions for this game were both submitted in Civ3v1.29 and actually finished in exactly the same year with a final Jason score that was only 6 points apart. Absolutely a fantastic effort by both players and this margin of victory is equivalent to have just one extra town founded one or two turns earlier in that game that the exact same equivalent town in the other competing game. You just cannoy get any closer than that reflecting truly a great competitive rivalry between these two players who played the game thousands of miles apart and on two totally separate continents of the reall world.
