But the real question is, "Did he win??"

Everyone backs a winner.

I regret that. I would feel better if people would rather associate my name with the tech-pattern I figured out, because it was way harder to research
I think the tech tree research was a lot more impressive as well.

It was the incredible overlooked simplicity of the oedo year phenomenon that made it so interesting...

I don't mean to brag, but before I'd ever shown up here I knew about oedo years.

I never, ever would have gotten the tech tree on my own (not without a serious amount of play testing).

If you play the same game a couple of times (usually with a saved game 5-6 turns forward then again from your start point) with a government change performed at different times it becomes obvious that when you do it on turn x it works but on x+1 and x-1 it don't. After that it's a simple matter of a couple of playtests.

I never really saw the usefulness, however, as I wasn't a serious player. Never bothered to figure out ahead of time my coinciding with one to avoid anarchy. Only did it while playing OCC (which again, I would never have thought of on my own).

Well, I'm honored to be in the HoF... Thanks to those who thought enough of my contributions to vote for me.

But my entry...needs to be worked on! I say let someone else write it. Of course it should mention my impeccable music credentials.

Some of Boris's votes (previous months) were from me from vote-trading. Thus he needs to be disqualified.

I was looking at the old thread (May 2003 vote) and saw obiwan's predictions on who'd be in- he got remarkably close- actually predicting the 6 top finishers!
Though not necessarily with the correct # of votes per person.

2003762 POST ID.

Ixnay : 109
Boris Godunov : 107
DanS : 102
UnOrthOdOx : 102
Oedo : 92
Reismark : 89

DarkCloud : 84
Scouse Gits : 84
notyoueither : 80
Sprayber : 78
Immortal Wombat : 74
War4Ever : 73

---
Here's what really happened:
1. oedo- (50) 88---138
2. Boris Godunov – (77) 51---128
3. ixnay- (78) 42---120
4. Reismark- (79) 26--105
5. UnOrthOdOx- (67) 36---103
6. DanS- (80) 20---101

notyoueither- (49) 51---100
JohnT- -(57) 40---97
Scouse Gits- (58) 32—90
War4Ever---(50) 37---87
Immortal Wombat- (49) 37--86
DarkCloud- (60) 26---86

---
And zero predicted:
Boris
Ixnay
Unorthodox
DanS
---
Any predictions for next time?
(Next election is scheduled for march and for 3 inductees)

DanS deserves to be in

but how does this work?

DanS- (80) 20---101

80+20 = 100 last I checked
