Your description is somewhat inaccurate, Stratesford. Our CTPII section was the first CTPII fan site, and always will be.  ---------------- Dan; Apolyton CS

Why would you say that? Apolyton is run by fans, and we have a CTPII section. Therefore, we have a CTPII fan site and we were first on the scene.---------------- Dan; Apolyton CS |

Because your site is so well run it looks professional. Take it as a compliment, Dan.  David |

This site is linked directly on the main CTP2 page at activision. Wether or not you think you're an official site, activision is using you that way. You're fans yes, but your doing their work for them. (For instance they don't have their own CTP2 forums, they point people to yours). Not bashing them, just stating my opinion.Frankly I wish they did have official boards and this was just a fan site. I'd like to know that activision is really looking at the bug reports I've submitted here instead of just hoping this is the right place. -Zane

Zane, dont know how you think activision is seeing us or "using" us. what i do know is that site is open to all views and opinions(when stated civily). the latest example is the ctp2 review page. if, after that, activision chooses to have a link to us(believe me when i say that we knew nothing about the front page link), i take it as a good sign from one of the companies that make civ gamesif you want be 100% sure that your bug reports reach activision, mail support@activision.com and/or civilization@activision.com(this one existed in the days of ctp1, i'm not sure if it still works) |

Blue text against blue background. If the CTP-2 contents have the same quality as the webpage design, it doesnt bode well. I hope for the best, though!  |

I'm surprised you didn't know about the link Mark. If you haven't looked already it's quite prominently in the center/bottom of the page at http://www.activision.com/games/ctp2/index.html listed as "for more news" and seperately as an Apolyton button right below that.Who's the real developer of CTP2? Activision is just the publisher. -Zane

Just out of interest, why are you waiting until after thanksgiving to update your new site? Isn't that an American custom? I thought you were Mexican? |

No, you weren't clear at all, but that's OK. :PDidn't know Activision was still in the development business. Thought they'd sold or spun of their dev division long ago. I'll try sending in an e-mail or two, thanks. -Zane

Just for confirmation, Call To Power II was developed internally by Activision. Pyaray |

Stratesford, Publishing and advertising a website which has no info is the best way to loose your potential audience. Also use a zpelcheque. |
