Apparently I better post another entry before the huge public outcry turns into an angry mob! Anyway, not much is new, so I’m not sure how exciting this will be.

Oh, I am playing Civ 3 at the moment and am doing MUCH better this time. I am currently on the year 1650 AD on PTW and am almost done with the Space Shuttle. I own almost every Wonder, my army is larger than everyone else’s, the UN is built, is there any way I can lose??

Apparently there is.

In the year 1550 when I completed the UN, I accidentally clicked “Yes” when it asked if I wanted to hold elections. There was no way to cancel, so I had to vote. There were only two candidates—me and Mao. I voted for myself of course, but managed to lose after garnering only 3 votes (including mine). I don’t know what he did that was so great. So anyway, my wonderful game came to a rather abrupt end, and I not only felt completely stupid, but freaked that I lost all that game play (since I had forgotten to save since year 1100-something)

Thank goodness for autosave though. Luckily I completed the UN at the end of 1550, so when I opened that Autosave file, I was able to revert to the part right before it was finished and elections had taken place, and now I have respectfully declined to vote just yet. I guess I’m going for the Space Victory, since I’m only a couple turns away. Soon I may get good enough at this to battle Kevin! You think you can take me, Kev?? ;)
