I was playing a Future Era Start game, going for Time Victory. I was in second place near the end of the game so, since each city starts with 5 population, I dedided to found as many cities as possible in the last two turns to artificially boost my score (I know, not very honorable :nono: ). Oddly enough, one of the cites founded on my penultimate turn dissappeared on my last turn, taking its points with it (I know I can't have overlooked it because there were only two cities on that island). I still won, though, through the sheer volume of extra cities I crammed into my borders. Oddly enough, in the end-game review, none of the cities I had founded in the last two turns were mentioned. Weird.
 
Don't cities have to be twenty turns old before they affect your score? I thought they made that change in the last patch specifically to prevent this kind of tactic.
