My run for MY record

[willemvanoranje]

Well, after I heard some rumors from people that others were running for the Deity and Emperor level record, I decided that it was time that I would reset my record (211%) to a higher level. I started an King-game, and everything went great. I got almost all the wonders (except for three) and I was superior. In 1500 A.D., all my enemies were crushed and only the Persians were left. Slowly, I took over all their cities except their capital. That moment arrived in 1700 A.D. Then, I began to research everything, and build a spaceship. It was finished in 1850 A.D. I turned the taxes/science/luxury to 20%/10%/60%. A baby boom, I jumped from 67.000.000 people to 81.000.000. I'm in the year 1900 A.D. now, with 2600 points. That's enough to break my record, and even to come into the HoF at this site.

The one thing I hate about record games it that you quite often have to go through all you cities, which in most cases are 254 - and that takes a hell of a long time...........

Damn I just did it once, and the next two turns I'm going to have to do it again!!!

But I'm pretty sure that I'll beat the Deity HoF

Well, nothing went wrong, my spaceship arrived and I ended uip with abou 4100 points meaning a 335%. My new record.

Well my game has also gone smoothly so far!!!

I have already beaten the high score, the only thing left to do is to see how much I can beat it with!!!

I have some 1900% and I still have a lot of turns to go and food caravans to use, so it will probably take some long turns before I finally finish the game and submit it to TF!!!

despite the max rule of only 128 cities on the playstation version in 1505 ad i have 178% and i wipe out the all civilization but one city left in 1020 A.D i dont have to worry the americans beacuse no more cities can be built. i have 115 million people. Once my computer is fixed i going to for 1st place on the high score. since more points are possbile on computer version.

 

[willemvanoranje]

Guess what. I started a game that should break the CFC and my personal record on <FONT size="1">chieftain</FONT s>.

I know, it's stupid, but its a lot of fun to have Industrialization in 60 B.C..

Hmmm, it's pretty hard to get a nice score in chieftain. Next record game will be on Warlord (it'll be the first time I play on Warlord) and after that Prince

.

The year is 1880, and my score is (excl.Spaceship) about 5300, with an avarge of 20 points added per turn in the last 10 turns. By my calculations, the 350% is reachable. That would mean a new personal record. I can't stop!

It has become a responsibility. Why the need? Where the HELL are you??? Alone, for certain. Ask: You may find may a friend or two.

P.S. Willem: Good luck, as always!

 

[willemvanoranje]

The above is wrong: It`s 1880, but my score is 5552, and I calculated that a 8750 points must be possible, meaning something like a 350% (I think)

Well, shadowdale's done it. Over 3400% on deity. Every single city hasabout 70 citizens. That's the record score across the net! It's even better than all the records at Apolyton! Congrats, shadowdale!

 

[willemvanoranje]

That's true! Shadowdale is the best!

My game: about 5800 points and just 10 years further (1890)

I said something about the 350% being reachable? Don't mind. Just a few turns and I'll have the 350%. I think I have a pretty good chance to just break the 10.000 points and score a new highscore.

Btw, is it true that the score for Future Tech gets negative past 1275 pts (255 fut. techs)?

The old record is set at 392% (9818 pts) by Colin Toenjes, and the chance I'll beat that record is very large.

I might even break the 10.000 points!
