The Petition and Poll on CTP3
Probably all the CIV/SIM-exes are stripped and cracked by some
genius out there , but I'm not encouraging illegal ways to get it !
As a matter of fact I think we should simply ask Activision to donate
the source-code to Apolytons forum since they won't make a CTP3 ...
UNLESS we check it , change it , test it and SEND IT BACK to Activision
so they can develop it further and ultimately
announce the sale of :

A low-price Call to Power 3 the FanEdition

So here's the petition and poll to influence that nice company
(=Activision) to make more money by not working very hard and
getting a lot of publicity and a Civilized Comeback ...

Maybe CTP3 should be called : The Civilized Call To Power
or it could be called (there's a game called Ancient Civilizations)
so they could get back the sacred magic old civilization-name :

|||||||||||CTP3 : Call To Civilization||||||||||||||

Eventually Sid Meier should have listened more , instead of taking
stuff from CTP1 and CTP2 , he can make it up by helping Activision !
The crazy pDAne goes berserk again #~¤$€>§!!!!!!!!

How about that Locutus (and better random-functions in the game , of course ) a quick revolution ? Contact Mark ,
Phone Ming , Bring in Sting (what's he got to do with it ?!?) but don't call The Police ... (Let him make music for the game ,
I've heard he is a civ- and jazz-player !) or just call the President , I don't care , just rock it !

Why ? Because Activision could earn a BUCK !
Dear immortal Wombat

Sounds mostly like a 0 % agree-vote for Activating Sid to make a
Civilization 4 !

You should take a look at your own sub-quotations :

If at least You would vote for Sid to make a Civ 4 ; You Killjoy !

I am very happy already with CTP2. After all the work we have done.
But I would be very help with a CTP3 (Dreams can become true). As long as they dont release it too early.
Price isnt that important. If they do it right i could pay big bucks for it. The gameplay is the key.
So 100%, If something like CTP2 + Strategic Resource + Space

What IW said
I think this has been tried, what, 5 times before?

Don't get me wrong, I would love to get my hands on the source code, regardless of what I'd have to do for it (why should we give it back? Like with the mods, we could keep improving and improving and improving...for years to come)

I concur, but then again...what the hell. What do we have to loose in trying again for the source code?

Well, that *is* how I got Markos to finally give me access to the news script, so it might just work

Actual they dropped the game, because they feared to loose a BUCK.

At least that is worth a trial and therefore I asked the Big MC to post Activion's support e-mail address as I was just to lazy to find it on my own I guess that is somewere on their CTP2 page.
