Playing Always-War attracted a lot of interest - and a lot more victories than I expected. A huge contrast from the original GOTM 22, played on the same map, for which only 6 people out of a lot of submissions managed to win. Evidently, the changes I made from the original game made it far too easy
Congratulations to @Mitchum for the extraordinary feat of a conquest victory in 35BC - the only BC victory for this game. And to @Lawrence - who achieved fastest domination not that much later - 250AD. But the most amazing achievement must surely be @WastinTime's 1500AD religious victory. That's right - an always war game, in which every AI is your sworn enemy, yet @WastinTime somehow still managed to get enough AIs to vote him to victory. All I can say is... next time I need a public relations expert to make me more popular, I know who I'll be contacting...
As for the medals... They went to later victories, but still for quite respectable dates. @Fine_Distinction got silver for a pretty impressive 220AD conquest victory, while gold and bronze went to domination - @Termitnik in 920AD, and @Jovan Kukic in 1130AD
Perhaps unsurprisingly, no-one went for space, culture or UN-diplo, so the only victory that wasn't conquest or domination was @WastinTime's one.
