Reply to STOP WHINING!!! 1.03 is great in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

[quote] [...T]he argument is that by making such remarks as "CASUAL gamers who whine when they cannot defeat simple and bad strategies", take note on the "casual" name, you are immediately sending a bad message, by sounding like the other person is a moron who should keep his mouth shut simply because he is not a "competitive" player. [...S]ome people start using terms like noobs, idiots, stupid, whiners, which are really insulting. [...] Many players here have to simply step down from

[quote] I just take off the side plates (yes, both sides) to my computer and point a fan into it turned on high. [/quote] my dad keeps the 2 side plates ... his reasoning is that the fan cools one side plate (the one near the CPU & videocard) and that this cold somewhat transmits itself to the nearby components ... his objections to your approach are that u risk blowing in dust + the too direct wind force of the fan might disrupt some components what do u think ? <

My dad pre-ordered that TA expansion, and I tried it (beta 5) this morning. I created a custom race with the super-isolationist ability, in an « immense » universe (vast, with a lot of « scattered » stars & planets), with 6 competitors (on « normal »), to have some space & time to grow without interference. Look what happened : The universe generator put 6 of the 7 players in the same half of the map (the right portion of the losange), and put only 1, totally isolated
