Not sure about numbers in all of these -- best guesses:
Classics (6?)
Double blind (6?)
Jane (6?)
Mesopotamia (7)
Europe in Flames (7)
Team PBEM (soon to be ^^) (8, or maybe 6)
That's a total of ... 5 games.
Not quite Beta's total, and certainly not Paddy's, but still not bad ^^

Nada ... although a couple might not be far, depending on how people play the endgame (or middlegame)...

Hrrrm. Tough call.
Fast Game - has to be my favorite just because it's fast and, starting from 4000 bc, we're almost in AD already (a few months later of course ... 4 months maybe?) ... and i got a Texas-sized piece of real estate in an Islands (random) start ...  Only thing holding me back ... no saltpeter, and only 2 single luxuries (in a 3 player game!).
Mesopotamia -- took over for ... dunno whom, but a pretty exciting game, moving along nicely ...
Early and Often -- pretty fast moving too, and I got lucky again with real estate and this time i also got the resources ...
A close 4th would have to be Naval PBEM, which is just cool because we got an advanced start (well, I *gave* us an advanced start, designing the map and the scenario  ) and thus is pretty complex.
I notice I buck the trend here and play way more 2-4 player than 5-8 player ... guess I like the fast moving games ...
Conmcb: ICAA is a 4 player game. Unless there are players I don't know about? ^^

I only have one and by your rules it doesn't count because it was at MZO, not Apolyton. I won the AoD1 PBEM at MZO as England.
Only PBEM I've ever completed, though. 
That said, My record is, technically, 1-0-0!

List your top 3 favourite PBEM games: |
1. Europe in Flames PBEM - this despite having the worst starting area I have EVER seen in a PBEM game. The game actually moves quickly and I got to conquer the Spanish in the first 30 turns because he didn't defend his capital.  Even if I lose the game because my start stinks, it'll be fun! It's by far the fastest game I've ever been in... clocking in at 2.09 days/turn and an astounding 7.2 hours/player!
2. MZO AoD1 PBEM - not only is this the only PBEM game I have ever seen completed, but I won it! It moved really quickly, too! At 2.27 days/turn (10.9 hours/player), it wasn't so bad!
3. ISDG FAM #4 - Not counting democracy games, this is the PBEM that has progressed the most TURNS of any I have ever played. This game started on October 20, 2003 and is currently in 390 BC (Turn 109). That's an average of 2.5 days/turn (~12 hours/player), counting some rather enormous gaps in play (including right now because one of the players was hit by Hurricane Charley).

As for DEAD PBEMs, there are several:
MZO Team PBEM - died before it even made it out of the first turn
Balderdash PBEM - I see others have already complained about this here. GhengisFarb single-handedly killed earlier attempts at a Balderdash PBEM at least twice, but it was finally Darekill (I think) that killed the third and most long-running attempt.
MZO Epic #1 - Master Zen, Slayer of PBEM games, is at fault here.
FAM #5 - Master Zen, Slayer of PBEM Games, again at fault.
MZO AoD5 PBEM - This one recently died due to collective apathy toward it. I have to take my share of the blame for causing that because it was after my own absence that people decided to just let it die rather than continuing. That said, it was Rhothaerill's decision to quit the game that was the last nail in its coffin.

Favourite Games
A game is fun when it moves fast, in which way I feel more involved. When I have to wait for a week for a turn I need some time to get back into the game (even if I make some notes). A lot of interaction with the other players add to the joy of a game.
1. ironB - a lot of action initiated by an early SoZ for bongo
2. classics - minor player, great speed and a laugh because of sabrewolf's iron source.
3. flames - picking up speed, difficult starting location
Finished Games
