I disagree! I have a wife and kids and probably TOO much time to play on the computer and refine my CIV skills

Other than #13 (you don't have a plan), you could take a very strong player at CivIV, pick half of my list and tell them they must make this mistake the entire game, and they would still usually win at noble.

really?
My wife and kids don't think it's right I can play civ instead of (insert some painful duty here)

If you are beating Monarch most of the time, you probably aren't making most of these mistakes, or at least not often. You also probably realize that not all of these are always mistakes.
You try to make nice and be friends with Toku and Monty.
I haven't played for a while now (just came back with the new expansion) but did they radically change those two? In vanilla and warlords, befriending either one lets you direct his crazy aggression at your biggest rivals and keeps them off you, and generally doesn't have much cost if adopting their religion fits with the rest of your plans. Toku generally just requires that you be his religion and gift him some random resource for a while, since he's isolationist the other AIs won't do anything to be his friend and if you drag him in on a few wars he's pretty much locked in as your pal.
Yeah, I've solved this at my house by (a) making sure my husband and son each have their own computer; and (b) buying them each a new game whenever a new civ comes out. Then the only question is who has to go buy takeout food for dinner...
The point might be clearer to the current audience were it phrased as "you probably won't get your first win at Noble (etc) if you are making these mistakes".
Earth 18 civ is a tough map, watch your diplomacy.
Top reason for not beating noble? A very hopeless, deep, icy arctic start and then Mansa on the other pacifist continent wins by space. Especially on BTS.
The Number 1 reason you can't beat noble is that you have never visited CFC and thus are not reading threads like these.

that's new one. what does it mean? Re the offspring - school offers Civ3 and Civ4 as a club. Is is evil to bring them here and teach them? nobody else, including the instructor seems to know about this site.WHEOOHRN
