    Delcares Formal War on myself, friendly nation follows suit

    Have had this happen too, playing both the Romans and the Aztecs being attacked by the Indians and Kongolese respectively. Surreal, to say the least. (I'm also noticing a peculiarly high number of war declarations by the AI for no apparent reason, but I may just not comprehend their...

    Graphics degredation

    Found a solution: the bug disappears if you start up in Directx 9 mode, rather than Directx 10/11. No idea why (this is with directx 11 installed).

    Graphics degredation

    Same problem here, and I've updated my card pretty recently. Never had this issue before, but that was a long time ago.

    Didn't Rhye also introduce increased research costs for larger Civs in Rhye's and Fall?

    Realistic Dates by Era

    I'd back this as included, at least as an option. After all, it seems odd that in an alternate world where Christianity may well not be the dominant religion, everyone's using its dating system. Seems simpler and easier to work than other proposals, too.

    Political Compass II

    For what it's worth: (1.1,-5.5). I appear to have been drifting rightwards recently... still remorsely libertarian though.

    Merlot Mafia: Chiang's Last Stand

    Damnation - I thought Caledorn was pulling off an excellent bluff. Shows what I know. Congrats to Slaze though - quiet approach paid off!

    Merlot Mafia: Chiang's Last Stand

    Vindication! Thank you, Caledorn. I can assure you that I am a genuine minister, and not a talented communist. Since it's not going to single me out any more, I feel that I can reveal that I too have a special ability. However, I feel it is too risky to say what it is right now - we should deny...

    Indeed. There was the logic of you jumping on a bandwagon, and thus being suspicious - which turned out to be false, but which was a line of reasoning nonetheless.

    Don't worry, I know you're only playing the game as it should be played - accusations and questioning and the suchlike. 'Tis all part of the fun, as you say.

    Merlot Mafia: Chiang's Last Stand

    Egad, perhaps I should not speak so freely as to what I think, if it is only to be interpreted as the actions of a communist. (The quotes are in no particular order, I should mention - apologies if this seems confusing) I can assure you whb, that my initial vote was entirely cast at random in...

    Merlot Mafia: Chiang's Last Stand

    Methinks not - like the previous game, it is up to us to work out what the tie-break could mean.

    Merlot Mafia: Chiang's Last Stand

    Or we could be in the situation where there are two communists who don't know who each other are - as our Amazonian ancestors discovered. This would thereby weaken their chances as opposed to if they knew each other. Not necessarily - while the culture of our Amazonian ancestors may have made...

    Also, the communist in our ranks could claim this ability as their's, and that they are a minister, in order to deflect a possible lynch - the risk of losing a valuable asset could deter people from voting for them. Of course, this all pre-supposes a tie-breaker, and that they are a minister -...
