Heh, I've built it a lot, actually, and never noticed.

So, if I had taken the quiz, I still would have gotten that wrong. In fact, I suspect I would done very poorly, because calculating all that stuff (the max tile outputs, the turn number, etc) is really not my forte.

I think we all know you are being exceedingly modest Arrian! Take the test, go on!!!

Yeah take it: I got 52%. Above average, but not amazing. I did do the test using nothing but my head, though;

That made the calculations hurt a bit

Micromanaging used not to be your forte either, but I've seen you go wild on early-game queues on more than one occasion.

I also haven't taken the test. After reading the results, I doubt I would've gotten more than 50%, though. I would have missed almost all of the Conquests related questions, and the others also were sometimes quite difficult. E.g. I never cared about leaderheads, let alone their facial hair. I also never cared about the order of the quick menu buttons, since I'm using the keyboard for this.

Congratulations to the winners.

You MUST be crazy. But all I used was pen and paper, at least. Just for the practice.

I got 48%, so just barely above average. I got tripped up by a lot of the trick questions and just some dumb mistakes on my part, I think... like the 5 templars per turn, forgetting about mobilization when I got everything else in the production questions... stuff like that. Oh well.

Yeah I got done by the Templars per turn one too.

Ya boo to Dom!

I remembered things like Mobilisation though, so that's why I thought I would have done quite well.

Will have to check my score again, but I think I got about 36%

quote: Originally posted by Dominae Question 48: It is 4000BC and you have just founded your capital city. Theoretically, what is the minimum number of turns you have to wait until it reaches size 3? a. 3 or less b. 4 c. 5 d. 8 e. 9 f. 10 g. More than 10 Getting this one right involves some thinking outside the box: the fastest way to grow a city is to Join Workers, and you start the game with one! So your city can be size 2 on the first turn. Then, how many turns does it take to hit size 3? Well, ideally your two Laborers are both working Wheat Flood Plains, but that only gives +6 Food per turn growth. However, as an Agricultural civ you could get that extra fpt to be at +7, thus growing in 3 turns.

With accelerated production on (10 food fill the box) it can be achieved pretty easily even with a non agricultural civ in 2 turns. 3 or less is nevertheless correct.

I think I mentioned in the introductory paragraphs to assume standard rules, epic game. If not, silly me...

If so, I must have missed it. Mea culpa. Anyway, you said "theoretically".
