Don't you just find it a LITTLE odd that within the past month all these people from Poland all of a sudden registered into Apolyton, read LoD's thread, voted Poles +20 never to be heard from again???

Sherlock Holmes would strangle you.

I told you. The Polish invasion . What next?

The real freedom and democracy is to let your friends follow their own instincts, not forcing them to artificially stimulate a cause.
Anyway, in the light of the events the "authorities" will be at least suspicious just reading the Poles issue - no need to tighten the rules ( we are a free world ). In fact, the votes spree in such a short time can neglect their chances to see Poland as a civ in the (upcoming?) expansion.

Quite a shame.

I believe the Poles deserve to be in the expansion pack, but not if it's just because somebody cheated tremendously. And I would hate for such an act to go unpunished. I am torn.

Look Mankind, I too have lots of friends that have been playing Civ from "episode" 1!
But I don't ask them to come on over to Apolyton just to vote on a thread that exists just to keep us "entertained" while we wait for Civ 3 to arrive at our home! (Locutus, I'm kidding!)

Anyway, either there is someone that is creating multiple users just to vote for Poland on this thread, or someone asked a lot of friends to make a favor to "mother" Poland!
"Friends" that will disapear from the Apolyton family in short time...

How can you say that despite the evidence? Or, more importantly, how are you sure enough to put it in boldface.

Late? Not at all. Locutus is still updating the list (although he hasn't for a while).

And by "Mon" I assume you mean Mongols and not the Jamaicans?

While I don´t believe that the fans of the Polish civ are 'faked' users, it really bothers me that the vast majority of them just posted 'Poles 20' or voted for some additional civs that weren´t even in the top 32 at the time. (Note to Mankind and Staszek: I know this doesn´t apply to your votes). So the Poles will soon be in the top 8, leaving the Maya, the Celts, the Hebrew and the Dutch behind them.

jdd200, Zealot et al.: Lately, I have found a nasty habit among Apolytioners - the habit if not reading the previous post in the thread. I have laid out the reason of all the settlers from Poland poping out of late in 2 of my posts in this very thread. So, if you'd care to move your asses and go to page 10 and 11 where I have explained everything....


JellyDonut: Have you not trust in the Polish sense of honor ? Seriously, I know it looks weird, but just because it does is not a sufficient condition for accusing someone of foul play.


LoD

PS. On the 'DL' issue - I have e-mailed Mark and Dan on the matter, asking them to check it out.

PPS. lockstep and Master Marcus - what I said to jdd200 and Zealot now partially (except the move your asses part, since you have actually bothered to read one of my explanations ) applies to you - (I'm reffering the post on page 11, ID 507077).

I think you should stop discussing whether DLs are voting or not in THIS thread and instead create a new one in the Community. That way Locutus will be able to update the list faster as he doesn't have to pick out the votes from all the ranting.

I meant to vote several months ago but didn't, better late than never:

Spanish: 20 (Would put 30 points if I could)
Mongols: 20
Turks: 20
Austrians/Hapsburgs: 15
Vikings: 15 (possibly including later Scandinavian nations)
Arabs: 10
Portuguese: 10
Phoenicians/Carthiginians: 10
Dutch: 10
Inca: 10
Celts: 5 (That is the true celts, not some welsh/scottish/Irish civ)
Assyrians: 5

That leaves 10 points, the reason why is stated above.

LoD, sorry if my last statement was too harsh.

All users who just posted 'Poles 20': Please reconsider if the Mongols, Spanish, Arabs, Inca, Vikings etc. really shouldn´t be in a Civ3 expansion pack. Or did you just want to say 'As long as the Poles are in, we don´t care about the rest'?

lockstep: Apologies accepted (unless your sorry was as in "we're deeply sorry" from the President Bush' statement after the EC3 incident ).
And I lean towards the second option - they just want Poland in.
