Thanks Major Adv.

There are some trouble with the created page. I also have hardly time to do something at CFC due to RL (and will stay the next couple of weeks).So the next GOTM will be a normal one and the next one is created by one of you (Inkerman).

I downloaded this weeks ago, but just got a chance to look at it. The map is revealed; I love that. There are 25 polluted tiles on a mountainous island. Is this the extent of the pollution problem? Or is pollution happening more often and perhaps earlier than usual?

Do we have to clean the pollution up? Or is it optional? I realize it negatively affects our score but the penalty may not be worth the effort.

I finally got a chance to play and played till -425 yesterday. I hope there is an extension; I would like to finish this one. It is quite interesting and unusual.

I tried some things to make it possible for me to upload files to civfanatics. Please could someone try to open the starting save in post #1 (not the save file in post #5). For me it looks likes it is working. But I want someone else to check it. If this is working I think I will be able to upload files at CFC instead of using a google account.

 

[Major Advantage]

Seems to be working here.

 

[Magic_gorter]

Results are up.
I've added the save files in the archive for gotm 128 too. Could someone download them to test if the link is working. If this works too I can finally upload all files I want.

 

[Ali Ardavan]

But: how nice, the five medals and stars are shared out one to each of the five entries!

The above was for GOTM127 and it happens again with GOTM128. All I can say is wow!
Congratulations to all and not the least to myself for earning my second green star ever!

I checked as well and I got the save file. I have not tried opening it with Civ2 though.

I tried all the links from the results page and they all seem to be functional. Downloaded GOTM128.zip and could see 5 folders, one for each participant, and three save files per folder. Again I did not open anything with Civ2.

 

[Magic_gorter]

Seems it is working. This will make it easier for me to create the new pages for civ2 gotm games which include save files.

 

[Major Advantage]

All I can say is wow!

Me too!
I had never dared to think those two games might turn out two gold stars in a row!

Link to video.

@Magic: After I saw Ali's 10% green star, I wanted to go back and check Grigor's percentage from the game before with his 25 points green star, but I get an "access denied" when I try. LINK

 

[Magic_gorter]

Somehow the page was no longer published. I've changed that and it looks like it's working. I also changed the link to download the save files (in the archive).

Edit: I've changed the link back to the first one. It seems I can only upload files and link them to a page when I create a page.

 

[Ali Ardavan]

Whatever you did the link to GOTM 127 results is once again functional.

By the way, some of your "Results are up" links go to the "latest results" as opposed to "GOTM xxx/stats". The former obviously only works properly before you publish the results of the next game.

 

[Magic_gorter]

I will look if there are some old links I forgot to change. Do not know if I can look at them this evening but I will look at them soon.

Edit: I checked them from GOTM 122 and changed all wrong links. I think older GOTM games should be ok. But I will check them too.

I've updated The Hall of Fame.
