You know ...

You know your doing something weird when you check the Civ4 forums and find everyone talking about how Diplomatic victories are hard to get and yet... Diplomatic victories I find are the absolute easiest to get. I go out of my way to avoid them now by building the United Nations and then not calling for the Diplomatic Victory vote so I don't win. Sooo weird...

Out of the people that I know that play Civ 4, you are the only one that can get diplomatic victory.

Wow. Of my six finished games so far, 4 have been Diplo' victories because I finally said "Fuck it, no way they'll catch up technologically enough to be a threat to me and I don't have the patience to hunt down every tiny last one of their cities, lets vote me the leader."

The other two were Spaceship victories where I probably could have had a Diplo' victory but figured since I already had the Apollo Program built I might as well just spend another 11 turns or so and build all the spaceship parts at once in various cities across my empire.

Haven't managed a Cultural, Conquest, Domination or Time victory yet.

Cultural is the one that looks insanely hard to me, 3 cities with 50k accumulated Culture points. Closest I seem to be getting is one city with 70k and a bunch more in the high teens or low twenties.
