Oh, dear! Clearly, JASON was not too fond of my decision to go for a 20K cultural victory at the late date of 300AD... :crazyeye: It sure was fun seeing if I could pull it off, though! Even though it was a lot of fun, perhaps triggering domination in 1320AD might have been the better option...

Greetings to my fellow GOTM players! Well, after spending a great deal of my already almost non-existent Civ-playing time on the C3C India Deity game, I almost waited too long to tackle the the challenge of playing the Ottomans with their fearsome Sips. In fact, because the game was...

Hmm... 9 hours left... Maybe that is enough time for me to go for a 5CC 20K victory! We'll see! :)

Thanks, professor! :) Now that was fast!

Greetings all my fellow Civ 3 lovers, As the GOTM server is currently down, I can't access the save game files. Would someone be so kind as to post it here on the forum as an attachment? Thanks very much, Jonathan

After having been away for a while, I decided to give this one a go, and, my goodness, I can't remember a game in the past in which my plans have been wrecked as harshly and as often by barbarians as in this one! I mean, can I get a medal for just surviving the barbarians? :crazyeye: I...

CivSteve, I really enjoyed reading about your 20K game. I tinkered around with the game a couple of weeks ago, but after I failed to get the Great Library (in a city on the mainland), I decided not to continue with the game. Who knew that it was possible to score a 20K victory in the...

Apart from a One City Challenge game for COTM39, this was my first GOTM in over two years! For the entire game I had planned to build up my forces and then invade the other continent, but I ran out of time! (A couple of graduate papers are due this week, so today was the last possible day for...

:lol: :lol: :lol: Thanks for the laugh, Chieftess! :)

Good point! And let's not forget Jimmy Carter, the peanut farmer from rural Georgia.

I got it on Wednesday from Amazon, but have yet to open it. :( Work has been quite hectic, but I hope to begin enjoying it tonight. :)

Or, in my case, a 7K+ game. :mischief: ;) I wish you the best of luck as you pursue the eptathalon next month. :goodjob:

I second your congratulations to A'AbarachAmadan! He is a class act, and I wish him luck as he pushes to garner his first Eptathalon. :) Also, I would like to congratulate you on your being the number one ranked player globally. Félicitations! :goodjob:

Am I the only one here who is surprised that there are so many here at Civilization FANATICS Center who are not sure if they are going to buy Civ IV? As a true fanatic of Civ, I knew that I would be buying Civ IV the day I read the first press release. :) In fact, I was just thrilled that...

Congratulations to all, especially to Kuningas, for his record-shattering performance! As the 100K has traditionally been my preferred victory type, his remarkable achievement impacts me even more. :goodjob: Eldar, Yes, Lord Hamster did come out of nowhere with that impressive...
