  • Yes I was the first to drop out of this, so my criticism may be diluted... but 4 players is not acceptable for a World Cup... Just got some more players in whatever it takes...

    And Yes Troll, sincerest apologies, I certainly did not mean to cause offence
    He's back after a fashion...

    • Next Saturday morning I can play if you're up for it Yoda.

                  You called it right from the start Paul. This tournament wuz going to go nowhere.

                  And you know why? Cuz most of the people who entered the tournament are a bunch of neutered puppies...there is no other possible explanation.

                  First there wuz Gavrushka: if you devoted as much time to actually playing CTP tourney as you did mouthing off in the tricks and exploits column, you would have easily been able to play. Then Filix....I saw the game....Yoda had him whupped, and then he 'adjourned' the game. After 3 times arranging follow-up times...he never showed, then vanished. Swissy...you said you needed a new graphics card...that wuz a month ago...nothing but silence since then. Quinns....a whimpering exit. Patryn, Catete, BerXpert, Nukeboy, Darth Viper...not a SINGLE posting since the first draw was formed....pathetic.

                  Dr. Doom
                  Well, its nice to see eevn the Experts occasionally are human! Way to go Paul..and DrDoom, better luck next time!

                  I just cant resist this post, especially for the Veternerain Doctor Doom..

                  • To my CTP friends (especially Troll):

                    I did not enter this CTP tournament expecting to win. I am well aware that Paul is a better CTP player than I am, as is yoda. And as might be expected, Paul won our match.

                    We both had about 70 cities, and arrived at jets at almost exactly the same turn. (Beware, you sniping *****es.) However by the end of the game Paul had a significant production advantage, due to his superior infrastructure and civ management techniques.

                    For example, Paul's establishment of additional cities above the theocracy government limit, while handling the myriad of riots, is something that only someone who has tested the CTP program carefully would risk. I have never taken CTP to the level of play-testing this sort of thing.

                    However that fact that I lost to a better player doesn't change the truth of the comments I made earlier about the mysterious rash of disappearing contestants.

                    Unlike some people, I keep my commitments. And I would rather play CTP and lose to a better player anyday, than beat up on some hack.

                    And by the way: Paul played the game cleanly, absolutely by the tournament rules.

                    So, hats off to the better player Paul. Nevertheless, if anyone thinks this guy is unbeatable, you'll be happy to know that his military tactics are still at the level of the Keystone Cops.

                    • Hats off to you Dr. Doom because that is what gaming is all about.

                      Oh I am still awaiting the turns could someone send them?

                      • Hi guys,

                        I'm still waiting for DeVil or Dragon to play our first match, but if someone is free for play I would like to set a meeting.

                        I think we are going to need a couple of weekends because I can play just for 2 hours on saturday mourning (central Mexico time).

                            I won't be able to play today as some work issues have come up. I'm hoping to have my slate cleared off by tomorrow, but it may end up being next week before I can play. If I can make it tomorrow, I'll post asap.

                              You might as well forget waiting for DeVil or Dragon... they seem to have decided the competition was a bit too stiff for them. I am hoping to play Paul this weekend or next week, but would like to get our game in after that. Paul, Dr. Doom and Keygen are the other ones you should try to line up a game with.
