The official "What did you do with you tin?" thread

[HazieDaVampire]

i just got a kick ass massive card board box, its stuffed in a cuboard with lots of other kick ass card board boxes!

lol chaotik, whoever said I didnt like the game? I think the game is boring, Im done with it. Im waiting for PBEM. I never said I didnt like the game. I just like these things without MP, the game bites a big one until I get an EP on my HD. Im still upset it didnt come with the LE, but I guess they wanted to squeeze that extra 39.99$ outta me like all the others.


Oh ya, I see alot Civ-3 ashtrays out there. hehe...

I seem to belong to the minority that actually likes the tin thing... never seen anything like that before... but we do not have such fancy boxes here... small country, small market... Although the tech tree was a bit crappy, I am still glad I got the LE (through eBay), because of the box.

I heard that the international versions of the regular game had the cd in a cardboard thing, whereas the USA ones had a jewel case. Now, is that the same for the LE? Or is the Canadian version non-existant and I just have the American version, just sold in Canada, and Americans who got the LE also got theirs in a cardboard thing?

The LE package I have has the cardboard thing, not a jewel case (which makes me feel fine - the cardboard is obviously more nature-friendly... ).

Mine was originally proudly displayed on top of my monitor, until it fell over and nailed me one day. Now it is displayed on a shelf above my bed, next to my Evangelion DVD boxset.

Tin??

Tin should be another resource on the Civ 3 map - like all the others it can hardly ever appear, be hard to find, and quickly disappear after you do find it.

Now I truly believe he is an experimental high-inteligence JavaScript bot.

I recieved my tin as a gift from someone who was....'convinced' to buy the LE. I use it to store computer games.

That's a dubious statement. You do know that Coracle bought the strategy guide before even playing the game?

Anyhoo...

I bought the regular edition, not knowing about the LE tin. And now that I do know about it, I don't care that there is one as most of the time, LEs are worthless. My box is in a landfill somewhere, along with all of my other game boxes. I got a jewel case included for my CD. I hate when you get the little paper envelope. Carboard? Ugh, that's even worse. I have to have the jewel case. Even if it's one of those thin ones (which I have plenty of).

If he is a bot, it must have a very well programmed AI. A very Intelligent AI, but still an AI.

I didn't buy the LE so I have no tin. But that worthless thing called a manual makes for a decent mouse pad.

Collecting dust until the wife makes more homemade cookies. It's great for cookies and they are delicous.
