Reply to Why am I so tired? in Everything Else GalCiv2 Forums

Well, I'd consider seeing a doctor, but you might want to consider the following: *Cut back on the Coke product and coffee. *Avoid strenuous exersise and scary/exiting movies/T.V. shows before bed. *Have a light snack before bed. (Cookies and milk are a good bet.) *Make your sleeping area as quiet, dark, and inviting as you can. (you may also want to try making it cool, I've read that you have a harder time going to sleep if it's too warm in the room.) <br

News-break: Dr. Rico Hernendez, a leading Terran therotical physisist, offered commentary on the ship found in the Eagle system after the strange energy spike, saying that there is a chance--albeit an extremely small one,-- that the aforementioned ship may have come from a paralell universe, though he says this is only speculation. In other news, an air stike on an insugant compound occured at 11:00 P.M. Terran Standard Time last night, and it was confirmed that D'Ja Kara'tann,

[quote]What is it and how does it work?[/quote] It's a way to indirectly compete with other players. When you post a game to the MV, the points are added to your total. There are also MV "empires": teams of players collaborating to rack up the points. Hope that helps.

News-break: A large energy spike consistant with a wormhole was detected in the Eagle systen earlier today.

Update: We have recieved confrimation from the UP that the Korx have sent scouts to the mysterious planet. Kralax denies that they are planning colonization, only looking for "lucrative mineral deposits", and he expressed no intrest in the formation that resembles a Yor face. Given that Korxian enviornmental policies leave a great deal to be desired, this reporter feels that the mystery of the formation will be forever unsolved. In a related story, Kralax turned down questions
