First Ever Civ 3 Championship Begins! Increase Your PM Length

I know, you say it's impossible, Civ 3 isn't out yet. Yet here it is, all thanks to my famous (not around here) Indian Head Nickel of Fate(tm)
Basicly, this nickel has never been known to be wrong and will always pick the winner between two contestants, even of a game still in development! So, all you have to do is make any post to enter. That's right, a simple "this is really stupid Lance", or whatever, will get you in. Then, when the thread fills some up with contestants I'll start the competion. In a series of rounds, one on one process of elimination, the field will be winnowed down until the very best Civ 3 player is found, all thanks to my amazing Indian Head nickel. The winner may then insert his new status in his location field or up his so there you go.

So, any post will do, sign up today!

You can't win if you don't play!

List of players:
Lancer
vs
Lawrence of Arabia
The winner is...
Lawrence of Arabia! (Drats) Nickel, you can be replaced! ...Just a lousy indian head nickel, how un-pc can you get? -sniff

Wittlich, w/ a 'W'
vs
Par4...Par4, you know you have a 50% chance of getting KOed in the first round, so... the odds are against you. No odds actually, this Nickel is no ordinary nickel!
The winner is...
Wittlich! Hey Par4, that was a bogey baby. Hey, at least you're in good company.

Zanzin...the prize? An all expense paid trip (paid by you) to the destination of your choice!
vs
Victor Gallis (yeah right)
The winner is...
Victor Gallis...backs up his boasts! Zanzin, the party is in the bleachers this time out...

Henrik<--------(fixed Hennrik)
vs The amazing thing is, one of these two will actually make it to round two!*
Lord Maxwell<---
*Just kidding, I don't know your respective abilities.
The winner is...Lord Maxwell! Henrik, there's always Civ 4...

Roman...He who laughs first...
vs
airdrik...why not? Do you want an itemized list?
The winner is...Roman! (who da thunk?) But can he laugh last???

Hasdrubal...see above
vs
Eli..."stupid"? So what are you doing here?
The wiener is...Hasdrubal! Eli, what can I say, the nickel overheard you...

rah...ferret scouts?
vs
Kyller..."I guess"? You stepped in it now, no going back! Your only hope is to scrape it off...
The winner is...Kyller! rah, keep practicing, (in the future) we may have a rematch. Did you ever say anything bad about indians or nickels? Hmmm...

Ilkuul
vs
Sirotkinov...hey dood, if Firaxis hears about this you guys never met me! Umm, well that's true...
The winner is...Ilkuul! Hmmm, I hear he got a good start, with lots of resources...


Rhurac...that's the plan, you have my word on it.
vs
jordanz19
The winner is...Rhurac! jordanz19, what can I say? Maybe when you hit 20.

Fintilgin
vs
cyclotron7, of trade discussion fame.
The winner is...cyclotron7, who who started w/ nothing, but traded himself to victory! (I get game reports from the 4th dimention)

Vitmore The Great, who plans to crush under his feet...
vs
jpww...at stake? Your rep as a Civver, nothing less.
The winner is...jpww! You rep is holding out so far... Vitmore, you'll have better luck 'crushing under your feet' if you're not sitting down...

That's the results of the first round. If you lost, don't feel bad, this is bogus as hell. If you won, well, chances are you're screwed next round. There can be only one...

Next round will be posted in a few, and played perhaps tomorrow.

Round two...
Lawrence of Arabia
vs
Wittlich
The winner is...
Wittlich!

Victor Gallis
vs
Lord Maxwell
The winner is...
Victor Gallis!

Roman--->Changed to jpww, Roman gets a bye, and goes straight to the third round.
vs
Hasdrubal
The winner is...
jpww!

Kyller
vs
Ilkuul
The bwinner is...
Ilkuul!

Rhurac
vs
cyclotron7
The winner is...
cyclotron7!

Next round looks like this...
Wittlich
vs
Victor Gallis
The winner is...Wittlich!!!

jpww
vs
Ilkuul
The winner is...jpww!!!

cyclotron7
vs
Roman
The winner is...cyclotron7!!!

Well there you have it. There will be three standing after next round, so I'll select a winner w/ dice, which I'll try to get to land on the IHN.

The air is getting perdy thin up here as the worlds very best Civ3 players face their final challenge to determine which of them should have played the lottery today!

Get off yer arse Zanzin? I expect to have a bit of rather pathetic fun here, the smallest effort was never anticipated... True, I have to flip my nickel, but I'm ready to commit to that.

I'm going to start this thing in a day or two or three, so stay focused, eye of the tiger! Grrr!
