Haha, congrats guys. With the way the submissions were going I was actually thinking the A-team would win. Well, good job anyhow. A sincere apology on behalf of Team C for not being there to give you any real competition. ;)

Oh well, we'll still pwn you in Season 3. Enjoy your luck. ;) I'm still itching to see who pulled ahead though... EDIT(yey, it works): I might be unavailable for the next two weeks so I'm naming Ferral as the captain till then. There was such a thing as a franchise player, right?

Darn it, I didn't get my game completed. That leaves Team C at 2 out of 6 submissions... I could finish this game today and submit it. Its a bit much to ask, I know, but can the round be extended for one more day?

Very nice submissions. I've got a little something up my sleeve too... lets hope it doesn't disappoint my expectations... or yours. Also, I've heard absolutely nothing from Elwood whatsoever since last round but I do believe he's been playing the core trivia game. Idazen mentioned that he completed a game but he hasn't submitted it to the meta yet. Still waiting to hear back from him. Though if he doesn't submit soon, Team C will be down 1 victory condition. Amalric also informed that h

Pick the Thalans as your race, select the Federalists party and devote 4 ability points to economy. That's a 75% bonus. Equivalent to 3 stock exchanges on each of colonies from turn one(affects all other forms of income too). If you use ARC(advanced race customization), then you can really take advantage of this by using Super Breeder.

[quote]to say that the the AI in galciv 2 is better than SE 5 due to the fact that in Galciv 2, the AI only makes limiting choice where as the AI in SE 5 can not be as good as Galciv 2 because SE 5's AI have to make more in choices per turn is just a silly comparison and argument all together.[/quote] I concur. It's the simple complexity of the game that is so fun.

[quote]The worst thing about SE 5 is the turn times.

Umm, not sure if this is still in TA but there's a bug(exploit, really) that I've noticed that is present in both DL and DA. Since I don't have TA, I can't check. If you click an AI's planet and go into the domestic policy screen and adjust any slider, you can see that planet's buildbar and adjust your strategy accordingly.
