Anyone see Jeopardy! the other night? Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

In a category named "I-I-I-I" (all responses containing four "i"s), the answer:

"This Sid Meier computer game of the early '90s challenged players to build an empire to stand the test of time." (or something like that)

And some chick got it!


We've hit the big time, baby!

Civ is a highbrow game, and should be no big surprise to see them on a high brow gameshow.

You will never see that question on Who wants to be a millionaire. A question on that show will probably involve the game- The Sims and Will Wright.

You know, I think the number my dad gave me when I asked about the number of questions in the Norwegian version of "Who Wants To Be a Millionaire" was 5.000, so it might be possible.

Enter the AD-FREE zone

Actually some time ago when my lady was near I hummed the rooskies' melody from the original Civ. She recognised the theme and from that day on I know she's a civer too. Occasional only, though.
