  • DG-like game

    I've seen this on the other Civ-related forum ..

    It goes like this - the game creator starts a game and publishes savefile. A volunteer then downloads the save and if he wants to proceed he posts that he accepts the save. He then makes 20 turns from this save.

    After that he posts the save from his last turn, and describes what happened, what he did and what he intended.

    Then the whole process repeats until the game is won

    The point here is publicity, and it gets pretty interesting to watch and discuss.. especially if the pros are playing on high difficulty level.

    The whole thing looks like a democracy - the leader changes every 20 turns like the new prez is elected in reallife every 4 years

    Because the player changes every 20 turns, unlike in DG, it's going to be much faster.

    So, I ask - did this happen already on this site or elsewhere, and what do you think of it.

    That's called 'succession game' here.

    This has happened in almost every (if not every) TBS*-game related forum on Apolyton Civilisation Site (the one you're curently browsing).
    Try this link for a similar concept in cIV.

    -- Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.

      At MZO we also have had them for Civ 3 and expansions and I believe we have one or two with Civ 4.
