GOTM 21 Results & Congratulations

[ainwood]

Three domination victories headed-up the table in GOTM 21, and they were all very close in terms of turns, with only 3 turns separating the dates; although none of them had the fastest domination. There was a much bigger difference in score however. Lexad was a long way in front, and Jimmy Thunder beat Doc TK in the race for second.

Great job everyone in this flood of domination victories. Fun game.

 

[LowtherCastle]

Congrats to all winners! Especially to Lexad for not just talking the talk but also walking the walk (once you said something about being able to milk but don't feel like... ).

 

[Jimmy Thunder]

Cool, I made the scoreboard!

Congrats to all the winners!

As predicted ... there were some big scores and very early dates.

 

[Munro]

Wow - 1040BC Conquest victory. How did you do it, Balbes?

Would love to see a write-up sometime. Do you keep the cities? Build anything other than WCs? (Worker at the start for hooking up the horses, or stolen)?

Hats off to all the winners - some inspirational scores as always.

 

[jesusin]

Congrats to the winners. Thanks to the spoiler-writers. And very special thanks to the staff, the game was very interesting and the characteristics of the map made for added fun.

 

[Lexad]

Congrats to all winners! Especially to Lexad for not just talking the talk but also walking the walk (once you said something about being able to milk but don't feel like... ).

Thanx, but I should definitely shut that trap when you're around - you have an awfully good memory...

Congrats to all the winners and the fast dates - three fastest conquests of 4 are my comrades in arms from CFR and CRC teams! And also jesusin, kudos on the remarkably fast Diplo vs Aggressive AI! HoF really pays off

Usual kau-tau to the staff

 

[Jove]

Yar, 4th place and I just barely got edged out for some hardware. Well, good games guys.

1040BC Conquest? I don't think I've seen one earlier than that. Yes, let's see the write up!

 

[Conquistador 63]

It seems I got lucky as none of the top players went for Cultural, so I ended up with an award, even not playing as near a good game as the other winners. Congrats to all!

 

[Harbourboy]

Don't downplay your game, Conquistador 63. Your cultural victory was still a couple of centuries earlier than mine!

I'm in much the same situation and I think you should be proud of your result. I win the occasional award although I have never won when one of the elite players chooses the same victory condition. A crowded map with Isabella trying to grab early religions isn't the best for cultural victory. An early 1700's cultural victory is a very good game and certainly worthy of an award.
