I was kinda bored and unable to sleep last night, so I decided to start up the ole game and do a one city challange real fast (for those that don't know, the one city challange is that you can only make one city and win the game. Some play that you can invade, others no. I was not invading). However, I did make it the easiest difficulty, on the smallest map, with Accelerated Production, no barbarians, and anything else which would make my game easier. Not really a challance...pretty much, I was just really bored...

Anyway, the point of the story is that after a while, my city got pretty damn strong. By 1908, I had 39,067 culture, coming in at 163/turn. I was producing 156 shields/turn. However, and perhaps the most impressive, with the science slider at 100%, I was putting in 808 gold into research from that city alone! If you look at the city the gold pours right out of the screen! This is because I grabbed every single Great Wonder that doubles your scientific production.

I posted the save below if anyone wants to look for themselves. You may see that I have a second city - well I had obviously already won that game, far surpassing the 20,000 culture needed to do so. So, I decided to fool around a little bit.

Oh, and I knew that things doubled in culture every 1,000 years, but I didn't know that that doubling was limited to once. At least that's the way it was in this game. Can anybody verify that?

That was wat I experienced. I heard stories about culture doubling every thousand years, but it doubles only once. It's still profitable to build your temples soon, because they will sooner double and produce more overall culture (I mean, during the whole game).
