    Sire, your fame exceeds even that of Dan Quayle

    In other words, what will be the end-of-game 'titling' system in Civ3? You know what I mean. In Civ1, it compared you to various leaders. In Civ2, it gave you the title, ie. "Caesar the Worthless". In Colonization, you got to know what was named after you, and in Alpha Centauri, the book that was written about you. So, what should it be in Civ3?

    Of course, we could go back to Civ1 (Oh, the endless mirth you got from getting statement like the one in my title ), but why not come up with something new? I don't know what that would be, but...

        Hmph. I had seen that, but just plain forgotten. Oh well.

          Yay. As well as been the cutting edge of TBS, this game looks like it is also going to be a massive nostalgia trip for me

            Will the list only include people that Americans are familiar with? Or does it include historical figures from other parts of the world as well? I never played Civ1 so can someone post some examples of what titles were given to players at the end of the game? I'm curious to know.
