Best high scores

[JGRG06]

As a newbie to civIV beyond the sword, what sort of score should i be aiming for at the end of the game ? and what scores do the best players get ?

If you're just starting out, I wouldn't worry about what scores you get at first. Learning and developing efficient strategies is the best way to approach the game, and solid strategizing is a prerequisite to high scores anyway.
