    Sure... can you bump the threads or paste a link here and I'll see what I can do.

    EDIT: Although it would be easier if you guys would just go and get an xbox already

    Can they just start a different thread for all the ps3 awards. I think recently with all of their tournaments and everything there is much more action on the ps3 side than ever in the last year. I see lots of stuff happening for them in the future and a combined page would become too saturated. I think they deserve their own competition thread.

    OK, a few updates to top post - as always, let me know if you think I missed something.

    Scottie, Yeah - that looks like a better order, I'll have a play about when I got time. The H2H world championships will be dropped from the main body soon and just counted in the previous list.

    I'll also do something with the PS3 stuff when I get a minute.

    Hey I like scotties idea too put more spotlight on the big tourneys......maybe move the civ league above the kings too??

    Oh and you might find this ironic but I would like to see mawpawks name next to 2012 world championship at the top of that page until the next bracket starts or champ is crowned.....that was a 6 month long tourney he triumphed over

    From reading japyanees thread he is the current bounty king unless raven comes back and beats him......Also, he nominated packrat to be the bounty king on our side.....but I dont thin packrat ever read that because its in a ps3 king thread.

    I may be the author, but it's definitely a 'community' thread, so all suggestions welcome and taken on board.

    I read it as 2-0 in a best of 5 at the moment - I take issue with actually claiming title-ship without actually playing a game, fair enough, Japyaknees came up with it, but then he gets first crack at it.

    Re xbox bounty, I though that was better a decision taken by Digital (or anyone) if they want to play it? A seperate thread would be better though?

    I also spotted another new king title on xbox - Whats the general consensus on adding new ones? I fear they may become too watered down and meaningless but at the same time, don't want too put people off new ideas.

    I agree with you, it turned out not being so great. I originally wanted it to be only Spain with regular rules but I thought it would be boring. Personally I don't think individual civs should have their own king titles. I mean I guess we could have a title for every civ but I think that kind of takes the meaning out of it, I thought the titles were supposed to show you were good with a wide variety of civs not just one specifically. IDK maybe I missed something...

    I agree with both of ya'll....I think new king titles should be voted on in this thread before they become a true King title. Every xbox king title is a group of civs itz except for the Zulu one and that one is fitting being king of the hated. It was also voted on by about 5 forum members who were in the party the night it was created. I was curious why the ps3 guys kept doing singles like spanish or japanese king insteaad of the groups like we do or just a mirror king title or somethin like that. Im not on ps3 though so I just stayed out of that one.

    Finally I 100% agree with having to play for the title instead of just naming yourself the rightful king. Im pretty sure I voiced this when duke tried starting the king of kings title.

    Ok in that case I will play someone to be king of the Seas, aka the Spanish with regular rules. I think I can fair pretty well and I feel they deserve a spot just as much as the Zulu... America and Chinese can just as easily be king of the Hated as well so I guess its a matter of opinion, I think I know why the Zulu were chosen...

    King of the Seas is fitting for the Spanish right? I like the Spanish a lot so I want them to have a king title. Isn't that how the king of the Zulu got started? I know Multi likes them a lot as well and felt they get hated on a lot, as they do. But I hear the same complaints about Chinese and American players when I'm in the lobby and we all know the Chinese and Americans are better than the Zulu so I don't see why they should get their own king title. I mean people could keep finding new reasons to make king titles, like King of the Overpowered (America) or King of the Worst(Mongols). Eventually we will have king titles for every civ.

    I agree but you're missing the point, individual civs shouldn't have there own king title. It just starts a chain reaction and eventually we will have a title for every civ which will make the king titles meaningless... I think king of the Hated is exactly the same as king of the top teir. You can't tell me when you see Zulu, Chinese, or Americans and you are a weak civ you're not thinking "god damnit" with all of them...

    I get your point you are just trying to be annoying......I was just trying to be polite.....its been a king title over 2 months now and it hasnt started any sort of chain reaction.....its still the only king title with one civ.....nobody wants to see the king titles watered down thats why they need to be voted on here......mawpawk and I were already talking about retiring king of the randoms cuz its so lame

    Alright then I will start it, I propose king of the Seas (Spanish), King of the Overpowered(America), and King of the Weak(Mongols). I guess we should vote then? All the titles are fitting of their names so I guess they all should pass right? Sorry I'm making a big deal about this but just as I started actually playing for these titles I feel they started getting watered down when single civs are allowed to have titles. This is just my opinion don't take it personally anyone

    Ya because they don't want the titles to become meaningless, which is what the Zulu title is doing. Also I'm voting for it so there's one I don't recall there being a vote for King of the Hated either, just a party of people who said that was a good idea who didn't think it through... Enough with the insults, we don't need to start that again

    Itz, weren't you saying earlier that individual civs should not get their own titles? Then why are you proposing to add more of them

    The king of the hated title is more of a joke/pun rather than a true king title in the spirit of the other ones. A good laugh at all the emotions involved when somebody picks the Zulu. And yes, the Zulu are by far the most hated because even a very bad player can ruin everything for you early and you cannot do anything about it.

    A really bad China or America player is actually a blessing. You get to either conquer nice 3 and 4 pop cities or steal a settled builder, artist or scientist

    Remo real talk once again... Zulu is a joke title but it one of the few titles you can face for and it is done in a matter of 30 mins after 3 to 5 matches. Zulu truly is the most hated civ for the simple advantage of moving twice in ancient and no other civ could be as annoying. I do like the idea being King of the Weakest. Mongols I find so fun going against another one and liked it a lot in the civ league.

    So you are proposing like packrat said, no quadripeds.....so no horses or knights......just bottom 10 civs....so a request in the alteration of the title due to the crappyness of it....Im down with this....does anybody second the notion?

    Ok just one more, Spain. They are my favorite civ and they are undoubtedly king of the seas. You can't see how this would work out? Liam really likes Japan, what if he wanted to make a king title for them? Why are other civs being discriminated against is my question I suppose? Is it only because they are not black? It's funny people make it such a big issue, which I guess it is some places like where Multi lives and down South. But where I grew up and the people I know it has never been an issue. So when I see people making a big deal about it on a forum that to the best of my knowledge isn't racist I have a problem when a certain civ is being elevated above others... Not saying they aren't hated a lot and don't deserve that title, just saying it shouldn't be a king title because then other civs should have the right to have their own titles as well.

    So we have 3 votes to change the King of Randoms-no horses to the King of the Footsoldiers(no quadripeds: knights or horses) and any civ in the bottom 10 is legal.....its only a best of 3 because these games are inevitibly longer....so I guess if we get another vote we can make the change...

    Just won this title off of mawpawk 2-1. We played it with the new rules as the King of the Footsoldiers so If anyone else can agree with us we will go ahead and change the name. Anyways, Im either king of random or king of the footsoldiers

    I don't mind mind either way - Randoms certainly didn't seem too popular so no love lost there. Might as well give the new one a try.

    I'll keep the record of the randoms though and just change the title in top post? I don't think glenn will be able to change the title of original post - so new thread, or just keep posting there, we all know what it will be anyway.
