I just may be the greatest GalCiv player of all time...

from Stardock Forums
...or maybe not. Thing is, no one will know (even if they don't care) since nothing happens when I attempt to submit my games to the metaverse. Bought the game retail, I click the button to submit my game, I use my nickname shown here... nothing ever shows up on metaverse. Playing version 1.02.049. Any ideas?

Did you register your player with the Metaverse? It's a seperate step from registering the game and/or the forum. Go to the main metaverse page... near the top is a link that says "Register your player..." Give it a name and your CD key and try submitting your score again.

Might not work though... others have had problems with this. If you're on a dial-up internet account make sure you're connected before you try to submit as the game won't prompt you to connect.

No, *I'm* the greatest player! And I defy that pesky Metaverse to try to show up on my computer to prove it! My guess is my scores are so high that it breaks a few laws of mathematics or something.

No, *I'm* the greatest! I have done every suggestion I have heard and no luck. The Metaverse recoils in fear of my monstrously high scores.

Now *I'M* the greatest, but I've modded my GalCiv install to the point that the Metaverse would explode if I submitted a game!

Ah, crap!!! That's all I was missing this whole time??? 'Register your player' is just about the most counter-intuitive way to phrase this ... and it's tucked at the top!

This shouldn't be 'your player'; it should be "Register YOURSELF before trying to upload scores."!!! Ah, well, it works for me now. Another fun aspect of the game, even if I don't like to play big maps, etc.
