A pity many (mostly OT) posts have been lost over time, or we would probably have been a few places higher...

Yes. It's bad that the archives aren't full

Er, yeah.
Sorry about that. But they were mostly in the OT!

I wonder if we could use the popularity of Civ to get the code released for Civ and Civ 2.

"Civilization video game discussion boards"

-- Civ is a "video game"? Never realized this.

Some of them gaming sites will probably not outlive good ol' Apolyton...

Go, Apolyton, Go!

Yes, as opposed to a 'board game'. Which is actually not accurate, as strictly speaking we cover the board game(s) as well...

Civfanatics at 68. Combined the Civ community would come in at #11.

Keep on Civin'

You're forgetting that many people are registered at both places.

Wow... we even beat most of the discussion boards for comprehensive gaming sites

[BigFurryMonster]

I'd hardly call a PC a "video", but I get the difference with the board game.

[DrSpike]

Tbh it's good just to make that list.

Uh, you need to view the game on a VIDEO monitor, BFM...

Plus, a lot of the video games also have PC versions, so they're discussed in the same communities.

Thanks, JRabbit of the Electronic Egyptians. Guess "video game" in my language means something else (an arcade game -- the type of computer game you would see in Las Vegas).

Does anybody know:

Are there any sites that keep track on how many hits the different websites on the internet receive. It would be cool to see how far Apolyton trail sites like Google and cnn.com
