I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody's life, my life. All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die.

(I'm going to see how well I do with the Intermediate save as well, but I'm officially signing up for Novice; if I rank roughly average in Intermediate, I'll switch over at the next game. I'd test out the Intermediate Game #1, but I already patched to 3.13 >_>)
Intermediate Game #1 - the unlocked version will owrk with 3.13 - so you can take a gander if you want to.....

Darn it - had a computer glich and had to start over from scratch. So this one won't count. Glad that Game 3 isn't far away.

With out going into details - I am guessing you found this one much harder than Game 1?

My first ever attempt at any kind of downloaded game. Been trying to get the hang of this game for 2 months now.
We'll see how it goes!

Thought I posted, but I guess not - started back on Sunday
But there's no sense crying over every mistake. You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
PolyCast | Girl playing Civ + extra added babble! | Yo voté en 2008!
finished, but cannot submit for tournament. Will try again with Game 3.
Ok another eloading question.
I was playing on my laptop at workand occassionally hiting the windows key if my boss came around to minimize the CIV Screen. I must have run out of ram or something because the last time I maximized CIV none of the UI was visable. I couldn't save so I closed the game and then loaded the last auto save.
My guess is that technically counts as a reload, correct?
What would happen if I loaded up the last actual save I manually did vice and autosave???
or am I screwed either way

I think I'm going to have to drop out of this one. I was fairly far into the game, but I was playing multi-player the other day and had to do that whole 'delete your My Games -> BtS folder' fix so multi-player wouldn't OOS. Didn't realize it deleted the saves until I tried finding it to continue where I left off.
So yeah, in the interest of fairness, I'll drop out of Game 2 because it'd be an unfair advantage knowing ahead of time where all the goody huts, AI civs and strategic resources are.
