I apologize if this is a topic more suitable for the 'off-topic' board, but I thought it was relevant enough to Civilization III to bring up. I know the concept of cities flipping due to culture has been a pretty hot topic throughout the run of Civ 3 - does anyone else find it amazing to see...

Here's my personal best...

I don't think the AI has been reprogrammed to account for the new game modes. It doesn't understand the strategy to begin with...

I present this as an example: Don't mess with the bull, young man, you'll get the horns I miss being in college when there was a steady flow of randomness in my inbox... does anyone have links to bizarre, off the wall randomness?

Thanks, I believe that did the trick! It was the dang XP messenger... <Insert Scream From 'Wrath of Khan' Here>

Hey, Although popup ads are old-news, I've recently been getting them on my computer even while not surfing the net. It's as if they just track my IP and theres some hidden messenger program on my system. I ran that Lavasoft Ad-aware but it hasn't solved the problem. It's not even like in a...

Ah... it all makes sense now: Bush is playing with the Regicide victory condition turned on and that's why he's so diehard about wiping out Saddam.

Well, haven't we already go the Apollo program? Probably best shot is at the spaceship victory...

I thought this Yahoo headline was markedly similar to most of my Civ III games. United States dominating in Cultural and Military aspects, but why does everyone hate me? :( yahoo news

I basically only build naval forces in CivIII because I get ill waiting 10 minutes for the AI's 300 ironclads bombarding horse tiles in the year 2010. Ugh. Also, I know that it's hyperbole to talk about spearman vs. tank, but I swear it's more common for a battleship to lose to a...

Yeah, that sucks that the AI knows exactly what resources and techs you already have and can therefore price-gouge in what you are lacking. In a few of the MP PTW games I've attempted, it really adds a lot of mystery when negotiating and you only put on the table what you're offering, otherwise...

That makes sense, thanks for the tips. By the way, Baraka you have some of the best fatalities in MKII, the one where you impale the dude and he slides down your spikes, classic.
