It appears the game refuses to aware the achievement for finishing Civ in under an hour.  I blitzed this afternoon in 40 minutes using Economic on Hard - still the easiest way - and didn't get the award.

The very first one I got when I got Spore was, I think, YMCA (I THINK that's the name). 3 different pack members that don't belong to your species.

I just got that; it's "Village People".  You were close! Cheesy

The Icon says "YMCA" on it.

I guess "Village People" was in the pop up message?  I was busy attacking another tribe while my Chieftan was off taming animals.  Oh, wait, that would be Tribal level, not Creature.  Oh, no, wait, ummm...shit.  I got something for having three different creatures in my pack, and something else for domesticating three different creatures.  I have no idea what I was doing now.  Do you think they would have more than one Village People reference?

Domesticating 3 creatures gives you a Domestic Something-Or-Other achievement, getting 3 different other creatures (probably rogues) as packmembers gives you the "(YMCA) Vlllage People" achievement. The achievement is named "Village People", the icon says "YMCA" in it.

Not quite an easter egg, but amusing: in creature stage, walk over a spice geyser.

Did anyone notice steve is on Simcity 2000's boxart, as well as in the Simcity 2000 intro here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rl5huQdshns

Has anyone who has gone to the center of the Galaxy noticed while you are traveling through the hole at some point Llamas start appearing?

Also to settle when the Llama thing started, in the credits of SimAnt it says something about a Llama Technician.

Yes, I noticed the llamas. They were psychedelic.

I actually used a spice geyser to escape attack once. (Hey, I was a weak herbivore right at the start of Creature.) Floated up there while the creatures that were attacking went after someone else.

I suspect the Llamas were originally a reference to the opening credits of Monty Python and the Holy Grail.  After the people who did the subtitles ("A Møøse once bit my sister") were sacked, and then the people who sacked them were sacked ("Mynd you, møøse bites Kan be pretty nasti..."), they were re-done at great expense.  The result involved a lot llamas.

That's especially fun to do with maxed out wings.

I assume that's how you get the Flight of the Bumblebee achievement, which I haven't done yet.

I believe that's how I did it.  Climbed to the top of a hill, jumped and flew over to a geyser, and kept flapping.

I've been told that you can also get it by being thrown from the top of a hill by an Epic Creature with  graspers, but haven't gotten close enough to an armed Epic to try it.


Also not really an Easter Egg, but amusing nevertheless.

Is the Flight of the Bumblebees achievement for flying 200 meters without touching the ground? Because I don't think I needed any fancy trickery to get that; just the highest level wings (and leaping from a mountaintop, I think).

The easiest way to do it is to get the highest level wings, highest level jump, and jump into a spice geyser (on a hill, if possible.). It'll shoot you WAY up and you should just fly forward for as long as possible.

You may harass and/or beat me with sticks, but CERBERUS is the three-headed dog guarding the Underworld, and the Chimera is the animal made with a number of parts of other animals (the one I see most is snake/lion/eagle).  So if anyone still wants to build a cerberus, build a three-headed DOG.
On another note I'm glad I read this thread; I wasn't big on playing the game but now I do (I never got very far into space).

Tell Maxis that -- they're the ones that coded it so that putting three different mouths gives the 'Cerberus' achievement.

Except for the part where it doesn't. At least in my game- I made my Hydra with five heads, three different mouth types between them, and no achievement.

Did you make it in "Create-a-Creature" or did you evolve it in the Creature Stage?   The latter earns the achievement. The former does not.
