Population
Open the cheat menu.
Create 255(4) huge cities with everything.
Hex-edit the save file to remove the cheat flag.
Retire.
You have a REALLY high score.
note : I never use this method, and if you're caught you're screwed.

Score and graphs, sheesh.
Yes, it's population.
Build the Pyramids, and the graph goes wild.
So over rated it's pathetic.
One of the bigger flaws in the game.

precisely...I have no respect for the High Scores brigade posted...I could attain the same by crushing all but pet civs then developing every bloody square till the end of timeline or any limit (population is amazing)...or b4 ending your game put luxuries up to 100% of taxes, then your score shoots up some more.
Multiplayer games and scenarios are all that keeps me civing! (and will till civ3)

Actually, you'd be surprised how hard to diety high scores are to beat even if you put everything into terraforming. I just beat the prince high score, but its challenging, also tedious which is why so many turn away from it.

OK, it's boring to terraform for hours on end, but it also gives you some finer insights on how to play well. If you ignore growth completely, or don't know how to maximize it at ALL stages of the game, then you will fall behind in science and productivity.
Btw, happiness counts too--so not only should you switch to 100% luxury in democracy just before the end, you should also make sure you have a courthouse, marketplace, superhighways, etc in every city.

If you have a lot of cities then turn the Luxury rate 100% just before the end of the game...

And all this means not too much.
India has a high population, as does Brazil and Mexico.
Anybody terrified of them?

Lots of people are afraid of India at the moment, since it and Pakistan got into nuclear posturing.
But to have a high pop. *and* happiness, you need democracy and lots of trade (at least in Civ II
China...?
shady editing removes "at least in Civ"

More than one sixth of the world's population!

I think Civ should work this way:
The more citizens you have over the amount of tiles available, instead of getting entertainers, you get normal citizens, except they don't contribute anything, and each one gives 1 corruption. Democracy solves this.
That's the way it works. India and China have populous cities, but a lot of people don't do anything.

Except that India is a democracy. And that *everyone* in China 'does' something.
You do realise, don't you, that SHOOBI - the person who started this thread - has not posted to CivFanatics since starting this thread! Now why is that? Got bored? Found what he/she needed to know and disappeared? Got p****d off with people drifting off-topic? Anyway, all our pontifications may have been in vain.
