Things to do before the game is over.
There's a program on the tele tonight called ten things to do before you're 30.
So with vic by diplomacy looking likely to win what things would you like to do before the game is won.
A few personal one's of mine,
1. Finnaly capture the ex-US Aztec cities that we have been trying to culture flip for about a thousand years.
2. Capture that annoying Russian city in our cultural borders, you know the one I mean.
3. Clear any remnants of jungle from our original homeland.
4. Steal some of that Ivory from the Greeks.
5. See the banana win an election.
6. See a Greek, Russian, Aztec or English reservation on Uber isle.
7. See the Babylonians loose at least one city.
8. Work out some way of comparing government terms to see which was the best. Although the first term would probably win or maybe the third.
9. Send a ridiculously made up Newz update to the Gods to see if they notice.
Thats all I can think of for now except maybe finding out what was said in certain disagreements early on in the game.

I respectfully disagree with #3. We should preserve some of that Jungle.
#9: April is comming up...if we haven't somehow won by then.
#8: Im not sure...was it term 4 or 5 that captured/built all the wonders? Though, I would mind seeing MrWIA honored for Term 3 either.

If my memory serves me right, we rushed Sun Tzu's during term 4, and rushed the Chapel as well as captured the Pyramids during term 5.
I think we should add a naval and amphibious attack on Japan to this list.

Hey! Some of that jungle is under Presidential protection. Really, it has been for thousands of years.
I think it would be great to send that made-up update.

I agree, but... keep discussions to PMs, or the administration might notice!
(it'll be way funnier if they posted it without noticing that it was actually an April Fools joke)

Re: Things to do before the game is over.
#1, #2 and #4 surely will make a diplomatic victory easier...
I disagree on #3, we need to reduce our emmission of pollutants.
#5
#6: I agree!
#7: If we want see this, we have to take that city by ourselves. Again, this will help a lot in a diplomatic victory...
#8: Man, this is tough! Run the 1st and 2nd term, with that start, what a challenge! And MWIA term, of course.
#9:

Nope, We got SunTzu's just barely in time for the end of Term 3. May have actually been during the farewell chat.

Yeah Sun Zus was rushed in the last chat of term 3 and then in the second chat of term 4 mikes was rushed and the pyramids captured. I remember as term 4 took all the glory from all the previous terms hard work ie taking Persia and becoming the no. 1 ranked civ.

For the record, #5 will be accomplished if we win by diplomatic victory, as the banana is our leader name

I object to doing these to our allies. Besides, I doubt we'd actually win the election.

Let's see them loose ALL their cities.

I agree. if you start a number of small wars, it is going to be harder to win the UN vote.
It would be interesting to see if #9 wound up being put on the front page of the forum.

What about Aidunburgh? Does that remind you of some big English city in the south of Scotland. Same pronounciation.
