Congratulations to Pentium for becoming a Quartermaster.
Congratulations to zerksees for rising from 16th to 10th

Congratulations to Pentium for the first to become a Quartemaster twice!

Ahh I'm back to the top 10 - if only until the next update.

Congratulations to Pentium for the first to become a Quartemaster twice!

Thanks!

Well, you made a pretty big jump too. Bravo!
BTW, I notested I escaped you in Pentathlon. It's all because of my name.

 

[Karl_t_great]

Congratulations to zerksees for rising from 16th to 10th, to archphoenix for rising from 12th to 11th and to bluejay for rising from 18th to 17th in the Quartermasters competition.
Commiserations to zex for falling from 10th to 13th, to Karl_t_great for falling from 11th to 12th, to Tone for falling from 13th to 14th ....

I was supposing to make top 10 in QM, congrats for zerksees & archphoenix for passing me.

There's a good competition for P10:
zerksees 3,02
archphoenix 3,04
me 3,05

I guess I have to improve in some category, I migth even take the pain of going for my 2nd ever histo game (I feel I am too old for the milking ....).

Well I certainly was not aiming for the top 10 - just to move up. As I said, I'm in the top 10 at least until the next update. I am going for Sid so I am not sure I will be able to finish for the next update.

Too old for milking? How old is too old for milking?

 

[BattleOfTheBulg]

I realize it is a game, but I respect your aptitudes for succeeding so gloriously. The Civ series is a great test of any true INTP personality. According to Myers Briggs Type Indicator, this is defined as:

The INTP is above all a thinker and his inner (private) world is a place governed by a strong sense of logical structure. Every experience is to be rigorously analysed, the task of the INTP's mind is to fit each encountered idea or experience into a larger structure defined by logic. For here is the central goal of the INTP: to understand and seek truth.


Salud!

 

[Pentium]

Welcome to CFC, BattleOfTheBulg ! And to HoF, of course.

And you're right, most civers are very logical, especially the hardcore ones

 

[Karl_t_great]

Too old for milking? How old is too old for milking?

In RL I am over forty (though mentally fourteen), it makes me think how many milking games I have time letf for.

[zerksees]

In RL I am over forty (though mentally fourteen), it makes me think how many milking games I have time letf for.

As many as your patience will allow I guess.

At 38 I am not that far behind you. Obviously milking reduces the number of games that can be played, but it is a place where time is on your side. A lot of players can't take milking. A good milk run is on my short list of games to play next, but first I want to beat Sid.

I have to admit though that if there was no HOF, I probably would not do much milking.

 

[Marsden]

I have to admit though that if there was no HOF, I probably would not do much milking.

If there was no HoF, I probably would still be playing on regent or warlord, getting whatever victory popped up during the course of the game rather than having a set victory in mind to try to attain.
