The future of the GOTM (conquests support)

[scoutsout]

Come on guys go out to nature, train some sports, meet friends or go to work...

Nooo oo oo:shakehead oo!!! Don't go there! Get conquests, set up the patch, and play the game!

Seriously - I set up my machine to play both 1.15b and 1.22f last night, and it wasn't bad at all. Only cost me about 500mb.

@Ainwood: Interesting game! When do we get a spoiler thread?

This was just like turning up at a Chess tournament and finding it was changed to Checkers instead...

Kasparov would be furious

Not until after June 5th.

Great work staff

1.22 Finally C3C support

I was SO BORED with PtW exploits like RCP and Palace distance, that i quited playing PtW games (including GOTM) , now i dont have to worry about every city location and distance frm capital anymore with C3C 1.22 !

Ainwood and AlanH: Thanks for your hard work and diligence to this site. I as it says in my sig, Its the best I've ever had the pleasure to be involved with.

An RE: All of the Hullaballo about the change... I'll quote my Mom "this to shall pass"

Keep up the good work. I look forward to GOTM for Civ 4

I meant that it is easier to have C3C released on the first of the month than to release it on the 15th, then swap the time slots around later.

Well, Kasparov gets furious if his socks aren't in the right drawer. He's autistic

I've been nagging at the staff so they would move to conquests. It's the worst month of the year, workwise for me, but I'll sure try as hard as I can to play and submit this game.
If the staff feels a little unappreciated by all this, here's how I feel about the change:

And, might I add:

Cool! I hope I can find the time to play this. More than once I have downloaded gotm and realized/rememberd I have to play PTW. I so much like the gameplay changes made for conquests over PTW.

How about:

CAMS (Conquests Alternate Monthy Series). C and G are so close that it is hard to easily tell GOTM from COTM.

Much thanks for the hard work in setting this up.

For the record, I very much appreciate all that you do for me @ this website FOR FREE. You made it possible for me to have a lot of fun with GOTM & SG's, and now SGOTM.

I'm happy that now I have 2 GOTM's and 1 SGOTM to archive for the community what a crummy player I am compared to the masters.

Since we all seem to be trying to remane COTM, I'll throw out C3CGOTM.
