First!

Just emailed in a job application a second ago. Now getting soundly beaten on Diety can prepare me for rejection and failure!

btw- going with the Adventurer start...

 

[BLubmuz]

OK, ready for another defeat... but the start seems better now.

 

[ZerrorR]

Got it!

Going for chall... khmkhm contender save khm

Will post a defeat in next 5 days

 

[CivSetä]

Here we go! I chose the adventurer, as I want to survive a little bit longer...

 

[Armus79]

Deity? I've only completed Noble before... Going in, ultra-defensively, adventurer class. Objective: survival.

 

[VitalSol]

I'm going in with contender start.

See ya'll soon!

 

[Ramzes XIII]

I...will...do...my...best... ADVENTURER

 

[Vynd]

Seldom have I awaited a thrashing with such great anticipation. I lost GOTM 14 at Contender class, and I'll lose GOTM 15 at Contender class too or die trying... err...

firefox download manager popped up an error when i tried to get the challenger class save. something about "not wasting internet bandwidth and out of your league". will give the adventurer level a try, and begin looking for the wotm 6 pregame thread.

 

[Mad Professor]

Deity. Eh. right. This will be something new. I won that really nice friendly helpful Immortal start we had a few GOTM's ago, but normally I find winning hard at Emperor. Contender looks good

I liked the pre-game discussion. It made good reading. Well, here goes...

HAHA- thats great stuff.

 

[nano2]

Hmm... well ive played a few Gotm's before and never finished them, and i have also not played in awhile
lets see how i do

 

[Jmall]

Do I have to start at the same time? I'm on vacation and can't play civ until.. Saturday at the earliest.

 

[a space oddity]

Welcome to GOTM, Jmall. Don't worry, it doesn't matter when you start, just make sure you finish (and submit) before the end of the month.

 

[DaKluge]

Well it looks like contender for me I just looked at the results for C-IV 13!! I was a bit worried about time, being a short month, but I can see now that the defeat shouldn't take more than a day or so!!!
