Whos playing what in Gotm20?

[ControlFreak]

Now that GOTM20 has started I thought it would be nice to have a common place where everyone can ooh and ahh over who's attempting the various levels.

Post whether you're playing Predator, Open or Conquest and then pat others on the back, give encouragement or prod the sandbaggers.

I'm playing

Go for it Nightfa11. And congratulations at being the first to step up to the plate! Are you alone or are there other adventurous soles out there?

I'll be the first to post for conquest. I'll probably play open on the rest of the (non-diety) games, unless an interesting unit/challenge appears in one of the other classes, but my last couple of diety attempts never got out of the middle ages and I hoping to change that with these advantages.

PS: How do I attach the Conquest icon? (to bad it's not a smilie)

--------------------
Great - a double post - now I'll either have to say something creative or leave a duplicate message. I choose option A.

Thanks - looks great

denyd@ I edited my first post to show you how to use the pictures. You can copy the text and change the {} to square brackets or just quote the first post and copy the IMG line you want to use.

Haven't started yet, but as this will be my first attempt at deity, I'll go for the open class....

BTW denyd, Congrats on being the first Conquest player to post. Good luck on Deity!

HotRod@ WOW! Looking for an excuse for not making the top 10 QSC this month?

Moonsinger@ I would have been surprized by your decision to go Open but you explained in other thread that you would "always" be an open player. How the wheel add to your Trading Scenario?

v1.21f

I'm playing the OPEN version. I really want to be able to play well on deity and thus I am avoiding the bonus helps the conquest players get. I think that I may end up having second thoughts about it.

 

[Renata]

Open. Love the icon thingie, by the way.


I've made it up to 1650-ish BC, and I'm loving it so far. Deity is truly a world above all the other levels.

@Hotrod: Wow, you're brave! How's the barbs treating you? (Don't tell me, I'll find out soon enough in the spoiler thread if I can get any time to play!)

Enjoy, everybody!

Although I haven't started yet, I plan to play in the Open class.

 

[Bremp]

I don't have PTW and I cannot play "Predator" :saiyan:

Just kidding

 

[Kaiser_Berger]

I played open....and it was some good times

 

[Bam-Bam]

although playing is not quite right. Will play is more correct--something about being up in 3 SGs and this funny thing called RL is keeping me away from the game

Since I play civ to help me unwind from my stressful and demanding job, I'm not looking to make the best possible move in every turn. I want a game where I'm allowed to make mistake and to be able to recover from it without thinking too much about it.

Yes, warm milk is so relaxing.

It's nice to know that you have 3 gold medals without thinking about every move and recovering from mistakes.

Thanks. I'm not an artist but I can cut and paste.

As expected, mostly Open players with a few brave and a few timid soles.

 

[Bam-Bam]

@ controlfreak--is it brave, or just plain masochistic??

I am beginning to question my own sanity--first solo deity game was a raging barb Epic 26, second will be raging barb predator GOTM 20, and third will be Epic 30--deity game with max turns for research set from 40 to 300. Add an all science opponent deity SG...

Believe me, I do not consider myself in the same league as the top players, but the call was just too great...besides, a report of my downfall will be just as entertaining...and probably even funnier

 

[hotrod0823]

@Control and Renata: What a better way to get a first solo deity win !

I need to work on my warmongering skills why not play predator and force me to take a more agressive approach. Last few GOTM I have been very peaceful 15 - Space, 16 / 17 only QSC, 18 diplo and 19 Space.

Wish me luck!

Hotrod

 

[Renata]

Consider it done.
