are u honor enough to do not reload under these instance?

I collect some instance. most make me,such a regular player, crazy.

1.Unexpected disband
at a necessary period,you get a SGL,but instead of hurry Great Wonder,you mis-click to disband it!:wallbash:
(thank to some elite player)


2.Unexpected revolution
use ctrl+Arl+g to move worker, but miss operate to revolution. and suffer a 8 turn Ar(thank to some elite player)


3.low luck combat
a full knight army lose to a Pikeman in a pivotal battle.


4.Unexpected AI SGL
you want to win a stand chief diplomatic win, and after gift greece,you get fission,and the UN will be build after
two turn, you finish date will great, only 190AD, one turn fast than great SirPleb, all seem ok,
the game is yours.
...
next turn, the greece finish chivalry and get a SGL, hurry the UN!:wallbash:


5.forgot the prebuild
after research Mini, forgot to change prebuild palace to Internet, so palace built.(thank to some elite player)


6.restart or move one step
after settled at start point, find if settled nw will terrific great.


7.mistake AI stealthy attack
after railroad all citys, in order to cut war fund,dissmiss most military unit to skirt citys,
leave some citys without defend.
for some reason, maybe a phone call, not notice a AI land beside one city.(thanks to the same color.)
next turn, the AI declare war and burn the city to ground!


8.Unexpected pollution.
when one tech 1 turn left, move slide bar and subtle micromanage scientists, but a Unexpected pollution
will let this tech still uncovered next turn, maybe only need 1 more break.


9.culture flip
though Utility programs "Mapstat",find one city have 0.002% to be culture flipped, so let it be.
but after some turns, it flipped.

...


99.to re-answer the questions ,when play Sid game?

more is welcome.
 
Every example you provide would be an illegal reload under Hall of Fame rules. No one's going to admit to doing it.

You mention this in particular several times. What does it mean?:confused:
 
most of the instance come from some threads which I have see before
such as famous Unexpected disband SGL,
but I forgot the poster's name, so I write (thank to some elite player),
if I remembered, I will write like this: (thank to DaveMcW)
 
All these example I can handle honorably under deity level.
(use my wisely choose AI trick.I am not familiar with early battle.)

but in Sid,a single mistake let me fall backward forever.
So I only submit two Sid game in many SId attempts,
to keep my honor,maybe I will play Sid no more.:)


Note: about Honor
since I meet Hof,I learn many many from Hof and new recognization to Civ.
I think Civ game like a real live.
One can't not make no mistake.
One must make mistake more or less.
In game I can reload, In real live I can't.
So I become a seldom-reloader from a heavy-reloader,and eventually no-reloader.
I think that a game with mistake was it's nature.
So I give myself aim, don't challenge, just participate.
and I only play for fun or just submit games to fill empty slot.
just win a game, not to try win fastest.

follow this, I played from regent to deity, from dishonor to honor.and feel great.

but since I try sid, I noticed I am not so advance to play Sid,

If I play 10 games, In deity I can win more than five, but in panic sid no more than 1 unless I dishonor.

honor or dishonor? I select honor.
keep panic or not? not.
 
I agree, why bother to play if you can't submit?
 
reloading because of bad luck is bad form for anyone.

more tempting is:
-reloading after accidentally stack-moving a stack of 300 onto an unroaded jungle :p
-accidentally hitting that end-of-turn button in the middle of a turn in the middle of a major war with many newly conquered cities unoccupied and a stack of 100 artillery undefended :mad:
-accidentally disbanding the wrong city ... the one with 100 bombers in it :crazyeye:
-accidentally resigning :cry:
 
Lat night when I was at the end of the turn the new family pet stepped on the spacebar and I did not get to rearrange all my fortified units. This was on Sid level! Ouch. I can recover.

Lesson: No reloading no matter how dumb it seems, and keep the cat off the desk when playing Civ.

On accidental resigning: what if it was a milking game with hundreds of hours invested.
 
I pressed one extra button when moving units during a fierce war on a huge monarch map and wound up overthrowing my government in the middle of a golden age. It was not fun being an honest player that day.
 
the topic of this thread will change, to like such topic:

candidate topics:
collection- the crazy things when playing hof games;
be absolutely honest, which things let you crazy;
Let me share your panic when play a "enjoyful" hof game.

etc etc.
 
two maddness from rysingsun ;)
when play a milk game, accidentally disbanding the wrong city, the one with pyramids in it,

it's also maddening to see a stack of 300 units accidentally move onto an unroaded square or enemy square and use up their movement allowance for the turn

Not even after an unexpected revolution or revolting to Despotism?

In the HoF games, I don't do reload, because I play more slowly and carefully, but in normal games, I do reload after things like that. Never because of bad luck, or a wrong decision, just after a clicking mistake.

Nope, not acceptable reloads for the Hall of Fame.
 
miserable repeat deed:
in my recent games, I meet a thing not very funny.
I play a Regent game, and At begin of certain turn,
my elite 5HP modern armor lose to a 4HP pikeman fortified
in a 9pops city.
I take a deep sigh, and use 4 more modern armors to capture the city.
but after capture the city, my game crashed!
when I reload the game from this turn's begin,I face a
furious circumstance.
in order to keep HOF property, I have to repeat the miserable modern armor fate, lose to a pikeman!
who meet the same thing?
I myself abandon the game instead of repeat this time.
 
supreme luck waste:
I want to compose a dom victory, I happy to wait a SGL
to hurry Pyramid, and need a second to hurry MoM,
after many try, success to get the first SGL after CB.
happy to hurry Pyramid.
after Myst researched, get the second, more happy,
wait to hurry MoM.
after HR, the third! wait.
after Poly the fourth!!
I donot know whether to laugh or cry.
what if I build temple early,hurry Oracle early to achieve a 20K victory.
what a supreme luck waste!!
