I'm still wondering if that is where smiley came up with the name from.

With names like "Ordin" and "Vetko", and since Min Grah has a background in law enforcement, I don't really see why it wouldn't be that.

Many names resemble handles of members at Apolyton. Such as Ljube, Oerdin, Min/Rah, Agathon, DanQ, DanS, and Ben Kenobi.

'Poly CivFan, for those slow on the uptake (CivFanatics being another quite-but-not-quite-as-large Civ forum)

Not to forget the legendary Evan von Christoph.

I can't say I disagree with that sentiment. But this discussion is for another thread, not that it has ever stopped us when we're jonesing for our next dosage of GO goodness.

Ahah, even I hadn't thought that thoroughly. (Of course i gave it 1.5 minutes thought, so what do you expect )

And i'm pretty sure that CFC has a larger base of members; perhaps not as cool or diverse as poly, mostly american from what i recall, but larger numberwise.

CivFanatics should really be called "Civ3Fanatics", besides. The greatest game ever, SMAC, has been reduced to a subforum in an "All the Other Games" sort of forum.

I'd imagine that's because of all the n00bs that post there, creating useless threads.

I'm pretty sure it's because we have much more ... able ... spammers

And i know that a few months back, it was noted in another (more appropriate) forum, albeit i can't find the thread, that CFC has a larger number of active members. I can't tell, of course, but if you browse to equal spots on the member list (say, 2000 in) you'll find a much higher postcount than you will on Poly (sorted by postcount) ...

Interesting to note that their postcount levels for various things are 1/8 to 1/10 of Poly's. Way too many deities

Don't state facts that make 'Poly look worse.

Alas, it is true... CFC's traffic count is much higher than ours, and they appear closer to the top for Google searches concerning Civ.

But we don't like to talk about it here.

Actually that means you read the same thread as me

Actually, as i recall, it depended on what country you were in, as google seems to know. Americans found CFC threads first, whereas europeans found Poly threads first. Funny, huh?

I'd like to see stats on that. If I remember after I get back, I'll look them up.
