Which is better, Civ or sex? (Time out:0 days after 24-05-2001, 09:00)
Civilization
sex
I can't say. I've never had sex.
It's a tie!
I can't decide.

I voted "sex", but Civ certainly lasts longer. Plus, I think of Civ more than I think of sex, I think.

Nothing like a fine ho to make the day complete. Followed by a game of Civ. Although I've yet to find me a ho that's any good at civ.

"Its a tie!"

Is that an obscure reference to some fettish?

I would say sex is more fulfilling. With sex, even when its bad its good, the same is not true for civ.

If i were playing a game of civ, and my girlfriend said "hey, lets have sex" then i'd at least finish that turn, and then i'd have sex, and then come back to civ. so i'd say it's pretty much almost a tie.

What about getting head while you're in the middle of the endgame conquest period, don't think you could beat that combo. Also don't think you could find a girl who wouldn't kick your ass for "not paying more attention to her needs"

Okay lets do a little review:

Graphics:
Civ2: 2D with isometric view. Zoomable but with restrictions to only 5 zoom levels. Nothing 3D everything with sprites. Hardly any animation.
Sex: Fully 3D rotatable and zoomable as you wish. Lots of different posit... aehh angels to look at and most of them are fun. And then there is still the beautiful face of the woman/man So its obvious:

Winner: Sex


Gameplay:
Civ2: Nice and clean Gameplay. Lots of tactical maneuvers. Nice features.
Sex: Steep learning curve. Becomes really enjoyable after some hours of playing. Always long time to get into the game. Though its great fun.

Winner: Though some might kill me its Civ2. Especially for novice players Civ2 is the choice.


Diplomacy:
Civ2: Not that great, but nice and AI remembers some things you did in the past. The basic features are there.
Sex: Lots of diplomatic options. You can trade for everything if you have a partner that loves to trade. And making gifts is fun too. As is receiving them.

Winner: Definately Sex.


Customability:
Civ2: Lots of options, all in text files though very hard to learn.
Sex: Great interface (speech recognization). Easy to understand.

Winner: Sex.


Sound:
Civ2: Nice sounds. You get used to them quickly. The music is well chosen too.
Sex: either there is none or well we all know

Winner: Civ2, (sex: none or nerving crying what did you expect who would win )


User Interface:
Civ2: Nice collected in windows, all clean and not confusing. Everything is where it should be.
Sex: Well speech recognization rules. Nothing more to say.

Winner: Sex.



So the overall winner is: Sex with 4 out of 6 categorys.

Suffering from ads?

I think sex with that female spy in that black dress from Civilization II is also an interesting option.

And what about The Kamasutra as a wonder?

Or having sexual affairs in your civilization ... (-> Clinton-Lewinsky, Cleopatra-Ceasar)

Obviously, sex is the answer! Still, I'm playing civilization much more than I'm having sex (I'm not Hugh Hefner you know...).

Receiving a blow-job while playing civ could be interesting (LOL!).

But on the other hand, playing civ gives you a definitive score, the score you receive after sex is debatable, since your partner could be lying so that your manhood isn't crushed like a settler under attack by a stealth bomber...

You can stop playing a game of civ if it doesn't work out too well, and start again instantly. This is obviously a problem with sex...

Any idiot can win a game in deity, any idiot isn't Don Juan!

What about a poll of: What are you more likely to get tonight? Civ, sex, both, niether.

How about a little mating progression right now? You can put a story together based on these steps if you like.

I think I get the best of both worlds - a girlfriend who likes and plays Civ! Never tried both at once though, I'm not that good at multitasking. Maybe once I get to playing at Deity level

Its a tough call as civ is generally always good, while sex is more varible. But even "bad" sex is pretty enjoyable, so I'll have to go for sex. Good sex beats civ hands down.

Luckily we don't actually have to make such hard decisions in real life. We can make time for both.
