An Indecent Proposal 

# posted by NoBrainRequired @ 9/15/2005 05:24:00 PM

Freaking Looney, do you do anything besides play video games?

On that note, Tim is right, Civ 4 will be out soon (I'm guessing christmas). So I think what we need is to have a Civ Off. Here is my proposal.

I'll start an entirely random game on King or Regent or Deity or whatever we agree is fair.
I'll save the very first turn, and post it.

Who ever can get the highest score (or build a gunpowder unit first, or get the most wonders, whatever we decide) I will buy a copy of Civ 4 for. All you will have to do is save your game on the last turn you play and email it to who ever we name impartial judge (I think wyldshaman would be a good idea, since he no longer plays video games). We can set a contest end date/time by which all saved games will need to be submitted. It would only be fair if we each tried several times through. It would be too hard to moderate people to taking only one attempt.

I think we have enough Civ fans to make it interesting; Matt, Matt, Myself, the two Loonies. That makes at least five. Jesse, you can play. Tino, Murph, Josh, Damon, Kellyn, Ron..I don't know if you guys play, but it's open to you too.


Obviously, for legal purposes, this is a non-binding contract and the contest is only open people I approve of. Timing of the prize purchase will be determined by local economic conditions (namely; am I employed or not). Any time I reserve the right to refuse giving a prize, end the contest or eat pussy, as I see fit. Please no Irish need apply.
