It even managed to put CiV4 on some obscure websites...

And it's official! Yay!
Yea, I got in my Uber yesterday and to kill time, I catch up on what google thinks is relevant world news and tech news. I was the top story in my news feed!
Also something here:

I did have to do one tricky chop.
Edirne, is shown here about to max overflow an IntelAgency (side note: of all the buildings I cut like universities and Oxford, who would have thought I'd have a use for IntelAgency)
Anyway, I need those two 3rd ring forests for my Engine, but Thebes clearly will get the lumber from the chops. The solution is often the solution to many problems in Civ. Gift the city. Thebes' 2nd ring forest can be chopped immediately for Edirne. For the 1st ring, you have to wait til next turn when your culture overtakes that tile again.
I added the missing Hot tip to the report. I didn't want to stop my momentum playing to post a screen, etc. You can see the image better if you go to the report.
I went thru the turnsets and repaired the broken images in case you want to re-live the whole adventure!

Why are both intermediate saves submitted to HoF from the same turn?
Looking at the final save, all I can say is this is insane!
It looks like a settler level game. You arrived at Alpha Centauri and several AI are still in the Classical era, missing techs like Currency, Calendar and Construction.

I built a new gaming computer last year, so I submitted the start and end on computer #1 and the continuation start/end from computer #2. It's probably a good idea to post a list of various other saves one day.
Remember, most of the AI in the game are clones (colonies) of an AI that I stone-aged early in the game. They start with the techs that the beaten-down AI had, and they get a size 1 iceball city.You arrived at Alpha Centauri and several AI are still in the Classical era, missing techs like Currency, Calendar and Construction.
Over 210K now. While I have my 15 minutes of fame, I should try to keep your attention.
I started a Pre-game thread on 15M score.

Imagine my surprise when my go-to online newspaper (I'm Austrian) ran this on their frontpage yesterday (in German):

Translation of the title: "Civilization IV player sends spaceship into space 210 years BC"
They managed to give a very confusing impression of the strategies employed here, but still...

Congrats WastinTime, I followed from the start and its been a highlight of my life. This thread has inspired me to strive for greater things by showing me how much is really possible with proper application. (And I don't mean in CIV, I hardly play it anymore, I mean in life in general)
Wow, thx for that. That's got to be the greatest compliment I'm going to get for my efforts. Makes me want to do it all over again!
Well I assume this question is for me. Bad news is that my old laptop can't run Civ4 anymore. Good news is, I've prepared for the Return of the Game by ordering a 2nd-hand machine on eBay back from February already! Yet another bad news: it hasn't arrivedSo, did you say yes or no to the "just one more turn" question?
Without a tracking number provided, I'm having a worry that I've spent my savings money on a con job 
eBay will always support the buyer. You should get your case opened before the 45 day mark tho.eBay back from February already! Yet another bad news: it hasn't arrived

Wow, WT,
