Hi neilo. Can you change, the spelling of my name in the original post. It's Ferrel, not Ferral. Thanx.
Ferrel
Hey FB. It's Ferrel, with 2 e's.
Ferrel, for Team C, checking in. Go team.
Nope, but I plan to. I heard the soundtrack though, and it's pretty amazing. Joe Cocker covering Come Together is a highlight.

1. Yes, it's a mega-event. Meant to unbalance the galaxy. 2. Not that I know of. 3. You can turn off Mega-events to prevent this from happening, but it will turn off ALL mega-events. Minor events will still be active though. I had this in my last game, and it took me almost 3 game years to reclaim them all, plus the planets taken from the other AIs of course. This can be good thing, because they never really massed any navy on Crippling difficulty, so taking back the planets is
The way the Spin Control Center works is, it makes any ship in orbit around the planet on which it built appear much stronger. If you put your ten strongest ships in orbit around that planet, your military rating can increase a lot. This can keep a strong, hostile AI off your back.
Just posted my first 100K game to the metaverse.
I'll be in for round 4. I have created a new character for the MVL named 4 20. I have used that character to join the MVL Empire and my official submission for round 3 also used that character.
Here's my submission for Round 3, Team A Character: 4 20 MV Submission Date: 9/30/2007 11:15:42 PM Victory Type: Military Conquest Game Years: 5 Score: 31150 Here's the link to my 4 20 character 4 20
OK. I've joined. My character is 4 20, under user Ferrel.
Hey thebutterfly. Ya, I'm still submitting but once I get to 50 games submitted I will retire that character. I've started a new one for the MVL and will probably join that empire.
Just updated to the new beta and played a quick tech games and it posted fine. Still can't post the games started with 1.7 beta1 though. If it was an issue with the 1.7b1 metaversedata folder (IIRC it was), a patch can't retroactively fix games since the 'bad' data is included in the saves. Thanks for the update. No problem, I'll delete those save files.
I've had this as well. My flagship was stuck until a big bad Torian fleet showed up and, well, it wasn't pretty.

Upgraded to the new beta2 last night. Still couldn't submit my 2 games that were started with beta1, however I played a quick tech victory started with beta2 and it submitted just fine.
Archiving will not change the version of the save game, so that won't help. The next update should fix the issue with submitting the games. So are you saying that I will never be able to post the 2 conquest maps I've completed with 1.7? If that the case I won't be playing any Metaverse games until it is fixed. On that note, is there an ETA for the next update?
I've got the same problem.
I assume this is not a submission? Correct. thebutterfly asked me to post the details, so I did. Sorry if I caused some confusion.
I successfully posted a 1.7 game, but the Metaverse lists it as 1.61. However I did the upgrade after I started the map. Can you post the details, too (or better: do a screenshot andf cut it nicely). Is it that scary 25K game? I don't know how to do a screenshot and load it here, but these are the details from Metaverse. Player: Ferrel Years: 5<br/

Looks like A team got another good player on their team. Don't know about the "good" part, but I do play a lot, wife/life permitting. Anyway, hi folks, looking forward to the fun. Ferrel Mewler
Welcome Ferrel, glad you want to join. Make sure to check out all the threads and the current game that is in MVL Round 3 thread. I have spun up the random generator and it has placed you into Team A. The A-team. If you can just post back in here what characteer you are going to use for the league that would be helpfull. Cheers mate and enjoy the league.<br/
I am slightly been drinking Rye(Crown Royal) Ferrel,(like in cat?) Ferrel Mewler is a AD&D character I had in college and the name kinda stuck. It does mean "wildcat", but it sound cleverererer back then. Cheers
How do I get in on the fun?
