thankyou, thankyou. Excellent addition to the game!

I know what you mean. Civ1 was the first game I ever installed on a computer and I never left the house for about a week - had to eat my parents just to survive. Thats when I got the taste for Chianti and fava beans:p Sorry folks, this post seems to be degenerating so I will leave it...

I thought I had some long sessions in the past but that blows me away Superslug. You kinda enjoy this game don't you!;)

Ok, I think its time I got in on the act because there is some great competition going on here. Its been over 12 months since I really played seriously apart from a couple of GOTM's but i'm ready for civving again:D Just started on an Chieftan, huge pangean, wet, warm, 5billion year, map...

It seems i'm the first one to notice - maybe because i'm a Kiwi - but congratulations ainwood on creating a very well done map of the 'North Island' of New Zealand. Great to see some local flavour in the game.:goodjob:

Congratulations SirPleb, Aeson, & Lucky. Great scoring guys. A special congratulations to SirPleb for knocking me off the top, you deserve to be there with the way you have been playing. :goodjob: Matrix, you deserve an award too for all the hard work that you put in each month in making...

My biggest mistake was building the forbidden Palace west of Paris near the gems. This was a handy spot in the early game as I could quickly build a decent army because of it, but later in the game a far more productive spot would have been where Moscow had been. After defeating the Greeks I...

Sure you can submit a losing game. Just send in the details as per the GOTM rules page along with your last turns save. You may be surprised as to how you rank, it wont win but there will probably be quite a few losing scores in this game and its always worth submitting.

It's ok guys, I was only being silly. I think the changes are a great idea. :goodjob:

You mean to say that all the hard work I did in this months game to try and get a spaceship icon next to my name has been brought to nothing.:cry: :cry: Never mind, more money in my shrinks bank account I guess.

Aha, thanks for clearing that up for me Aeson, I remember Tae Shala's post now. I understand the formula, it just seems a little awkward to me compared to the way I worked it out but as I stated earlier maths is not my strong point. Looks like we need some more domination disabled games in the...

Congratulations Eman, Lucky, and Trash, good games all. :goodjob: Matrix, thanks for the praise man but i'm not sure if I deserve to be number 1. I'm not 100% sure on how you do your calculations but according to the global ranking page the ranking is based on an average of the three best...

Only just finished this game and submitted minutes ago. Had a complete hard drive failure and only just installed my new one 2 days ago. Made for a fast and furious attempt at playing the game but i got there. Not one of my better efforts though and I doubt if it will be in the top 10, I dont...

Awesome patch Firaxis, Thankyou. Well I thought they would severely cut back pop rushing but if its gone for good i'm happy. It's how I got those huge scores that put me at the top of the leaderboard but to be honest pop rushing was ruining my enjoyment of the game. Now we are going to see...

Congratulations SirPleb and Grey fox. I'm surprised that there were no early conquest wins at the top but it was tough to do with all the respawning.
