PPS: If you look a bit closer at NoM's screeny u will see a guy, running at 70% science, with 1 gold in his treasury, saving a woping -4 gold per turn, about to plant a new city. If you looked at my screeny 1 turn after finishing the second courthouse you'd see a guy running at 90% not losing any money and getting 80+ beakers per turn by which point nom was probably down to around 40. PPPS: LP you need to tell me the secrets of getting 80+ beakers with only one cottage (see screenshot)--must be the courthouses right? (for the sarcasm immune I am referring to LP's five lux res, more than half in cap under bureau, oasis and sea foods). I think I'm going to start building courthouses now!!! thanks LP!!!!!!!!!1111

54 turns left, donut ren. Your army consists of a catapult and a longbow...don't make two settlers and a pike in your three cities. Thanks.

Okay no screenie for this one, but here is a classic. We get zulu on front and carthage (fin) in back. Zulu builds cottages and large cities while carthage slaves down a large stack of numids and chariots.
...
Why didn't carthage (fin) in back build large cottage cities and zulu agg/exp with impi on front slave down? The reason is that these two players play exactly the same game every single game!!! PLAY YOUR CIV.
OF COZ I get called a noob for calling them out on this and OF COZ they will not change.

well seems to me the sec pair of scenies show the unnessary lib being built nin a city that has to much unhappienes and not enough beakers to warrant a lib. the 1st 1 i would say that city was not ness where he planted Yah, that's pretty much it. More in the first one, the city was inefficient since he may have wasted the horse tile in my culture and it would take a while for his workers to work that and the only reason he planted there was to have a bigger empire with no reason for wanting to have a bigger empire other than ego. In the second one he got about 4 or five beakers a turn extra from the library (60 hammers), which he could have gotten by garrisoning a 10 hammer warrior and working another cottage. Thank you. I'll try to include short snippets in future postings.

well ,what I see ? A hugh ego and a good graphic, sh*t I m running at minimum If you're not interested why not make a thread with your own tips, I'm trying to help you jackass, so why don't you delete your post and move along. If me making a tip thread offends you, maybe it's the size of your own ego you should be questioning?

Okay, pretty much every day I see something dumb in a teamer, tell the person about he, he disagrees and doesn't change anything. So since they won't learn, I've decided to post screenshots here so maybe someone will learn. The screenies should be self explanatory, feel free to ask if you can't see the problem.

Select the city (or multiple), then ctrl-right click the desired rally pt.
EDIT: Maybe it's shift as Mookie said below--you know it's worked if you see a yellow circle where you clicked. FYI one of the game start hints says how to do this (like "Snacks are good in moderation," "Never start a land war in Asia," etc.).

If Beyond the Sword is available *and* there is a CCC there should be at least one event for it! Perhaps a non teamer event? In September hopefully by then the memory leaks and performance issues in MP will have been addressed and the CCC can be primarily Warlords. Maybe just the ironman and future/modern (indu/ren?) should be moved to BTS. Sure RaY will have a big advantage, but I'm just ready for a new game and some new stuff--it's been longer between the first and second exp than between the original release and the first exp. I just think it would be more fun

I remember our team getting completely owned by MDR in our first CCC not too long ago (like how we owned RaY in the Ren and Medi finals this time). I would completely gd freak out if I saw we drew MDR (like RaY does when they draw us). I haven't seen you bring one home since my first CCC and it always puzzled me how this could be with such a great team.
GJ! Well fought and well deserved!

I haven't played mirror very much but can remember at least two occasions (out of three, four?) where I noticed asymmetries in the map--one was horse in the cap on one side but not the other, the other was very subtle but definitely wrong (a res on the wrong side of a mountain).

Gogf you still owe me a report for that RaY vs ren game. In fact you posted on the forums about having not reported to me then didn't report. And Mezi owes me one for refusing to report for a tbg where they lost two cities in the first 15 turns.
Is there a statute of limitations on these games?--these games were a few months ago but with the new rules I'm more inclined to file non-reports...
And thanks Canuck for enforcing, it's a pain I'm sure but I appreciate you taking the effort. Some people just gd don't report.

The history of the OCC event.

CCC47
1 FUN - Yohan1 2 MDR - AlieNator 3 RUS - Axius 4 MUD/SD2R
Some clans just don't have good OCC players. As a good OCC player I would like to finally respond to the endless attacks on this event by Mookie, Knupp and others. The OCC takes a lot of skill and thought because every little decision has a magnified impact. The fact that some people win/place high consistently while others do not should be evidence of that. Some might try to get better at it rather than eliminate the event.
Rather than sounding bitter about the above results, it might be better for critics of the OCC event to devote your energy to improving and commending and learning from the people that have rather than calling them noobs and lucky as certain players have a habit of doing.
GOD has a proud history of placing in the top 2 in this event every time except this last CCC. And for your information, in my final in the first OCC cton I had literally no food, not a cow, literally nothing and got second. Enough said.
Yohan (or FUN) does not criticize teamers and ask for them to be banned because he is not good at them. Before you claim to understand how OCC works perhaps you could prove your claim rather than phrasing it as an insult to people that have played this game and become good at it.
I sincerely hope that I will not hear any further criticism of OCC players from people that are not good at them and that any disrespectful attitudes that have been voiced have been in error and not a sign of a malicious attempt to tailor the tourney to the strengths of any one player or clan. Thank you.
