Forum Newbie requires help understanding abbreviations. Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

I've been on the internet for a year or so now, so I understand things like ROTFLMAO and NIM and so on, but I've yet to understand the little abbreviations that occur here at Apolyton.

Can someone please tell me what MGE, OCC and other things (you know what they are) mean?

Thanks!

which itself contains a link to another bumper acronym thread.

Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

Thanks heaps.

OCC sounds like an incredible challenge. I used to do OCC in CIV 1, but set at Chieftan level.

Geez.... I can't even win a game at Emperor... yet.

Hehe. Don't worry - you will one day.

The only bad thing about it though is that once you've beaten the AI at a certain level it's no longer really challenging if you play that level again, forcing us to come up with our own challenges (eg. OCC).

Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

Not ready for OCC yet, but maybe I can beat it at one of the lower levels.
