metaverse scores

How long after you submit a metaverse score until it shows up? And I presume you can just search for you alias to find your own score?

Yes.

I choose my alias here "s w" and my email addy, they click submit, and it takes me back to the GalCiv start menu.

sounds like you might need to get CariElf or one of the Stardock guys to help you out because it sounds like everything has gone right on your end.

One last thing. Did you click on the Metaverse button, and then click the link to Register your Player on this website yet? If you haven't, that *might* explain the problem. If you've not done that, give it a go. Hope that is of some help

Hmm, I didn't know you needed to register seperately for the Metaverse...ok, so I did that...and got a VB error.

Actually, as bad as it may sound, getting an error message is a good thing. Usually, there is no clue whether a Metaverse submission gets through or not until you check it out yourself. This leaves the player asking "Is my info right?", "Am I registered everywhere properly?", and the dreaded "Is the Metaverse even taking games right now?" I do wish there was some kind of error check on the user's end where Galciv gets data back from the server that says "Yes, it looks like a good submission" or "No dice. Something went wrong." Just an idea, guys. I don't know how hard it is to change these things.

I reccommend saving the turn before you win. Keep the savefile until you've verified the score submitted properly.

Actually, I've got my autosave still - I haven't played since finishing that game waiting for the Metaverse to be fixed...which hopefully it will be shortly. :(
