      If you are ready to do that for a game, what are you ready to do for a life saver drug?

        Hey Father Beast, if I can buy the game then you can do it, too.
        Listen: I have a monthly salary of aprox. 200 $ a month! No, no, I didn't forget any zero, it's 2 hundred/month!!. (that is, Eastern Europe; what can I do? Go west and steal your jobs ? )
        So, Father Beast, be prepared to buy Civ3 because I'm going to buy it, no matter what!

        Am I a Civ fanatic or what ?

          Try to get a copy of the game, until you have enough money to buy the original,... I know it's a bit loosy to play a copy, but, if it's the only solution,...

            My job just came through with a chance to make a bit more money by driving a load for an overnight run. it'll keep me gone for 2 days, but will pay better than the 8-4 I regularly do.

            WOW! I guess when it's really important, things really do turn up!

            Oh ,and my birthday was on sunday, I guess I didn't let the authorities know so it would show up in the birthdays file or whatever. Maybe next year......

            I was just about to point out that Horsie is simply making excuses in advance for why he will suck at Civ III...

              1. I wonder WHAT you are shipping that is so valuable...
              2. Why do't you sell your cargo and say you were robbed by a gang of hells-angels?

              You are sitting in the cab and behind you is a fortune of goods and you think you can allow yourself to go civless into the night!

                There isn't any reason not to pre-order it, so why not? why risk having to wait for a new shipment to come out simply because Jadlakha here doesn't think pre-orders are necessary?

                Judging by the rest of your posts you probably just enjoy being grumpy and cynical, oh well.
                Well If u look at the original post that started this thread, there IS a reason to not preorder.

                after taking a hard look at my budget, I realize there is no way I can afford to preorder civ3!

                I have a job, but I don't have near the extra that I used to have. In fact, I don't have any extra at all!

                maybe if I embezzle 5$ every couple of weeks, I'll be able to swing it. maybe they'll have a really good sale at media play.
                The reason is if you dont got enough money. Basically I was just trying to reassure the guy that no need to save up for a preorder. I am sure he will have enough money by the time the game is out so no need to save up quickly just to preorder.

                  You don't need to pay untill you actually get the game, though it helps to deposit a bit if you are reserving a copy at a store, so that someone else doesn't get their hands on it before you.
