### Vote for Civ III ! Don't let it die! (11/3: Round 2) Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

Please bookmark and folow through the title fight! The following link will have Civ3's match-up when it has started.

Gamespy.com: Title fight

[Round one 26/2: Civ3 3381 FFT 2302]

Update 11/3/04: Civ3 is up against Sim City 2000 TODAY!

(Voting for Metal Gear while you are there might help us...)

Region Final: Tuesday week - March 23. (Probably versus a PS2 game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.)


This is a simple popularity contest. The best game will not win, but let's show them why we've been playing Civ solidly for a good 10 odd years! We have thousands of members here, and we only need to increase our vote by approx. 600 to get up to a similar vote to that which GTA: Vice City had in Round one. We will at least be rulers of our domain!

I would never suggest scewing results, but go round to all the different IP addresses you can, remove cookies and vote again!

I don't understand what this is.

But I see Civ3 up against some game I have never heard of. So the choice was obvious. Yep, you guessed it, I voted for the game I never heard of

How can you even compare the two games?

the tough match for me is FFVII v ChronoTrigger. ???? Don't know how to vote there.

Why did you vote for civ3? It's as much an annoyance as it is a joy. singleplayer gets boring real fast and MP hardly ever works
lots of stuff is just plain unreasonable.
still, we love it. kinda like mothers... they keep nagging about all the potential unused, everything that could be, but they love u regardless.

because civ3 is a great game, that's why we voted for it. No one has even heard of FF: tactics.

It might fail against sim city 2000. But I have never played it, so I would vote Civ3 again.

CIV3 got 3,381 votes. But have you checked out the opposition:

Granted it was up against a 1994 Mac game, but that doesn't bode well for the future.

It's the same thread. I don't see why you have to call me stupid.

I don't see any contradiction. The smilie should be an indication of what I meant.

I'll stop posting in this thread if that will make you happy. I'll even stop posting in civ3-general. I didn't realize there was such bigotry here.

It matters not to me if anyone post or leaves, but the fact that someone took umbridge with ones post has nothing to do with bigotry.

Warning: totally biased and unsubstantiated comment to follow, all liability excluded and responsibility denied

While quite likely to be true, I like to think it's because Civ3 requires intelligence and subtle strategy rather than just "stick 'em up, bang bang" type of play.

That's my opinion and I'm sticking to it, even in the face of evidence to the contrary that anyone may care to provide

Plus those who play civ are a little less likely to be trawling the Net voting on polls and a bit more likely to be setting policy, doing world-class research and creating new enterprises.

Oh, and actually PLAYING Civ in their freetime.

well, civ3 may win against simcity2000, but it will eventually fall when it is matched up against more popular games.

and why exactly civ3? i mean, they had a sort of 'qualifying' round only with sid's games, and civ3 won, i'm aware of this, but i thought that civ2 would fare better than it did.
