Well, I guess I'm going to show a little of my "newb-ness" through this question/request, but I would like to know how you all use the luxury slider. I was reading Vulture's posts in the AU 207 thread (very good posts, btw!) and he mentioned that he moved the luxury slider back down to zero...which obviously meant he'd had it greater than zero at some point .
I have NEVER used the luxury slider in Civ 3 (used it some in Civ 2). I usually play on Monarch, but if I want a game I'm going to lose, I play on Emp. Whenever I have civil trouble, I simply turn a worker to an entertainer and everything is happy. Occasionally, this causes the city to drop a population point, but, HEY!, if they are unhappy because of overcrowding, one way to deal with it is to starve some citizens (God - sometimes I just feel completely heartless when I play this game).
So...how/when/where/why do you use the luxury sliders...or do you ( should be followed by a "mwhahahahaha")?
