The best Nickname for CivIII Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

So far, I've thought of or seen the following-

Civ Lite
Call to Power III
Corruption Simulator
Civilization- Age of Empires
Meier's Folly


I'm sure there's more. Any ideas?

He's not complaining, he's WHINING.

Constructive criticism is helpful, this is SPAM.

Get a clue, learn how to complain.

Why don't you guys go put all this crap in one thread so those of us who actually want to discuss Civ3 can do so without the idiots whining because it is not Civ2 or it IS Civ2.5. Whatever, I don't care for your reasons.

Kind and fitting advice from someone who's signature reads;

Why can't you just admit that XP, while good for a Windows OS, is still just another attempt by Microsoft to catch up to Apple?"

Yet again, "Mr. Practises what he Preaches" really does a bang up job in showing us how trivial our comparison complaints are.

I think Osweld said it best when he said (And I'm paraphrasing here): ""

Throw you stupid threads somewhere else, this is seriously cluttering up the forum. If you have valid arguments, by all means (you'll see that I have), but if you just want to *****, whine and moan do it somewhere else... please.

Huh?

What does a quote I found quite amusing have anything to do with cluttering up a forum with whining and *****ing?

It's nice to see that there still are a bunch of people left who believe that the sun shines out of Firaxis' collective arse (and are willing to kiss it).

Oh well.

I don't kiss their ass at all.
I'm very vocal about things I don't like about what they do (dinosaurs rings a bell).

I just love playing Civ3. It's been a long time since I've had that "One more turn" feeling.

And when I come here to talk about it with other people, I don't enjoy seeing a forum full of threads like 'Civ3 == CTP3' or 'Civ3 is Civ2' or 'Civ3 sucks' or even stupid things like 'The best Nickname for CivIII'.

It's stupid, it's spammy, and it's annoying.
Take it elsewhere.

Perhaps you can e-mail detailed suggestions to Firaxis instead of wasting your time by pissing me off?

No, as the chance of them actually listening to what I have to say is about as big as the chance of me sticking my knob into a toaster.

Ah, I think I'm beginning to understand now...

So if I had the same opinion as you, I guess that would make me 'wise' as well?

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

Civilisation III is shortened to Civ III...cool nickname and well worth doing because it cuts 9 letters from the name

All your suggestions are long-winded and don't sum up the game perfectly.
