i'll make one here, Team E "The Eternals"; but I plan on mostly using the Core and i'll let it slide on you being easy

Reply to MVL Round 4 Draft and Discussion in Metaverse GalCiv2 Forums

I don't care one way or another though as Mumblefratz and Purge are always so keen to say "There is no better teacher than actual playing"; all the strategies in the world will pale in the face of the unpredictability of each individual game. PS hahaha Piz, its too bad you can't have your Tyranny avatar over here; i always picture you sounding like Mr Burns in everything you say, its quite amusing actually....now where's Smithers?

also congrats on being a Crusader; too bad though for me, you were my top pick for the second round of the draft also, i changed the OP to better reflect and lessen confusion on the Racial medal

Reply to Metaverse Medals and What They Mean Answered in Metaverse GalCiv2 Forums

ah yes, sorry Dystopic, misunderstood you. Yes you could win a racial victory medal by playing 10 games on Cakewalk on Tiny maps with all the different races. NOTE however that those ten games are going to be a drag on your difficulty score and your overall score, especially over time as you submit more games. And CaptainYar, yes, it is proven that to get a Favorite Race medal you must play a DL game and I *believe* it weighs the difficulty equally but I would need to use someone

looks like I beat Neilo back here actually; well...my first two picks have now been chosen LOL, so Neilo, welcome to Team E. Edit: Also, Mumble, as of yet I have not received a PM on the Core with the Forum password, though admittedly I wasn't sure when those are being sent out

Reply to Metaverse Medals and What They Mean Answered in Metaverse GalCiv2 Forums

you will receive the medal after your first win in a DL game, however, after that it will be based on your most used race in the DL games. If you were to play 10 games in DL each with a different race, my guess would be the last race you played would be the medal that would appear. Only ONE medal appears at a time.

has to be a DL game unfortunately

Reply to MVL Round 4 Draft and Discussion in Metaverse GalCiv2 Forums

y'know...i actually feel kinda bad for FireBender; its not even the end of the first round of picks (well, ok just his is left) and he's already lost 3/5 of his former team Not saying that there isn't some AWESOME players still out there Also, Dystopic, our prayers and thoughts are most definitely with you and others in So. Cal, I'm glad and thankful that everything has gone so smoothly so far, even with all the destruction,

Thanks Mumble for expanding on the details; I'm heading up to Michigan for the night so not really sure if I'll be back on here or not; also if we finish the first round of draft picks before I return I have sent Neilo my next choice (well lol depending on availability) in a PM

Reply to The MVL Rulebook in Metaverse GalCiv2 Forums

your welcome PJ. And maybe we should give more thought to Mumble's suggestion (which I put up some math for) and keeping the total points available 22/round; [I][/I]where[I][/I] the points go will be slightly different depending on the victory conditions but at least it will keep things simple for teams knowing exactly what is attainable. As such, and correct my math if I'm wrong or adding this all up super quirky, but... In any given round there are 8 Base points (4

Reply to The MVL Rulebook in Metaverse GalCiv2 Forums

oh thank goodness I waited before posting! I was torn between #1 and #3 for those exact reasons. So if I'm following we would have the following possible points: Base Points (for submission with proper victory settings) Speed Bonus Points (individual and team) High Score Bonus Points (individual and team) Fastest Team Submission Time (team only) For a total possible in a single team in a single victory round to have 16pts, and in a All Victories round to ha

SW, head over to the Player Roster and Sign Up Page and add your name to the list of committed to Round 4. I PMed Neilo earlier today but since he is 'Down Under' it won't be until morning before we get some more stuff organized. We are currently in the process of implementing a Draft round for the teams and we need to know exactly who is participating in the upcoming round. Thanks!

as per their posts in the Ladder thread, The Great Emperor and Piznit are also in for Round 4 edit: MarshallOneill has also expressed a desire to continue, "culture shock" not withstanding. ((ps marshall, once again KUDOS to you for participating in Habitat for Humanity, for anyone else that didn't know, he spent the week volunteering in Louisiana.))

Reply to MV League Topic of Discussion thread in Metaverse GalCiv2 Forums

OK, I hope that everyone had a restful weekend. I didn't make pasta though Neilo and others are wondering who's on board for this next round. Can everyone that is still interested stop by the Player Sign Up and Roster page (that way its all in one place) and let Neilo know if you're on board or not? I REALLY REALLY hope to see EVERYONE on board so that we can go ahead and have a kick arse time

Hey readers, sorry that I wasn't able to post on Friday like I had promised, unfortunately I had to deal with some issues elsewhere in the GC universe and then to top it off, when I DID sit down to finish writing, MS Word decided to go perklunk in the middle of a chapter, making me have to start all over again. SOON i promise!!!

Fire, I don't want to hijack this thread talking bout strategies; we have a number of different threads on our Tyranny page (link in the OP) that are interesting to check out. I'm gonna post one over there in a moment fully expanding on what I was saying here

interesting, the funny thing is tho, after reaching Class 4 I've never had an issue getting my population up to my farm limits (13b or 20b depending) I'm using DA 1.61. Too bad we can't actually reach 100b due to the morale nerfing I'll pay more attn in the future, see if the limits still hold true

lol, its ok FB. Have some questions: what size map do you play for one and also, what is your basic research pattern. Outside of some early, cheap techs that I get, I usually find a line and stick with it (my "important" items being in rough order: Diplomacy (for Diplo Translators), the soldiering line techs (and Tir-Quan), , and then I go all out on the Ethics (Evil), and get my MCC (for a 100% Econ boost, REALLY nice that) and the No Mercy Invasion Center (this is a must since I play on huge
