I remember that game, although he only had about 3 cities, the cheating ****. It was a 5-way too, a fine waste of half an hour.

Even in 2x2x its not easy, unless you get iron/peat in your cap.
But then you'll fall way to far behind in expansion.

Unless you get a few early cities or nomads from huts. Then you can afford to do that kind of stuff.

I was in a game about 6 months ago on the zone and after the game was over we discovered the host had started with 10,000 gold. I can't remember who it was, but commonterry was in the game (not the host).
The funny thing is we didn't find out until after the guy retired because he was getting beat so bad - then we saw the powergraph. You'd think with 10,000 gold you should be able to stay out of last place, at least until 1ad.

Hes annoying when he hosts, he always starts with free tech and never tells anyone. And if you ask he just won't answer.. then when his start is bad he will say he has a bunch of free tech and we should restart about 5 turns in..

I'll try a OCC game with a 10,000 gold head start. How early do you think I can make AC?

haha, i remember a year or 2 ago, he got so pissed he edit out diplos' in the rules.txt and made a bunch of changes to the way units defend/attack and changed the shield cost of nearly every unit. Seems that didn't last to long either, as when players joined they would be totally confused after a while.

The triple overtime was a great game. A bunch of us were playing a MP game into the wee hours of the morning, so it was great to have on. One of the players was even from Detroit. I still don't know which one of us was first on king chat with.... HE SCORES!

Best of luck then... MAKE TONS of money. They look like the real thing again this year. Now they just have to finish them off... because you aren't going to get much help from the Tigers, Lions, and Pistons in the near future

Hey Hey Hey. Don't knock the Pistons. Afterall they were the #2 team in the conference, 6th man of the year, defensive player of the year, coach of the year, exec of the year. That's not too bad of a season and they're only gonna be better next year.

What started out as an innocent question about 20000 gold.......
How many minutes would an average hockeyplayer have to play for 20000$ btw?
