How can I get a higher ranking? Put an end to popups!

I have a major Q, When I win the game(after many ways so far) and I recive my "How History Will Remember You" ranking, I always seem to get a low ranking like Worthless. But anyway how can I improve this? Do I increase the diff? Increase aggressivness of barberians? Include more comps? Anything you guys can tell me will help greatly.

Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

what is couted is:

-your land area, so on a big map, this can give you more.

-happy citisens, set tax to 100% lux just before you finish the game ^^

-difficulty level

-year of conquest, the earlier the higher ur score. this seems to be a big factor, as for now all the highest scores come from deity conquests before the year 0 on a tiny map.

Got spare money?

keep in mind happiness is averaged over time. so raising to 100% doesn't have as much impact as it did in civ2. But it may help a little.

Increase the size of your Attachments

"Worthless" is pretty low. You need to win or at least play longer before you retire.

You're confused. The "Worthless" rating is the computer's assessment of how much fun you had.

(LOL! Sorry ... now back down all you Whiner Busters (tm). I was just taking the obvious opening.)

Safe to say you will never get a decent rating at the lower difficulty levels. If you went on a rampage and won in say 50 turns, you would not have the culture points or the population stats.

Play on deity and win by the 20th century and you will see a high rating.

I think I'll give that advice to every newbie I see from now on. Out of idle curiousity, what's the highest rating?

Well you have been somewhat nice lately, so I guess you deserve one for good behaviour.

I play all through the game, most of the time I win at somewhere around 2020 and by the UN Meeting (Diplomacy) also I have a Civ that is as large if not a little bigger then the comps. I'am vastly ahead in science and city size and have a large military (maybe would have helped if built faster?) and I build Nukes as soon as possible. Maybe its cuz I have it at Chieftian Level and Barbs at Villages?

so what is the highest ranking one can get? Get a bigger avatar today!

the best i did was "Shaka the Wise" i believe, upon a spaceship launch victory in diety in the 19th century. i think there was 2 or 3 spaces above it for higher ranking. Anyone know what the best rankings are called?

That would definitely have something to do with it, especially the playing at Chieftain part. You can nevre get a very good rating at that level.
