Thanks!!!! Here's my latest Year 2 experiment: [IMG]http://i714.photobucket.com/albums/ww150/ajkfjaioIIl9Wkk/050709b.jpg[/IMG] Purely out of scientific curiosity, you understand *ahem* *cough* I am going to have to play this out to 5 or 7 years to see what happens.
Well, I missed my opportunity to close this one out in year 2, so I went for the Year 5 score: [IMG]http://i714.photobucket.com/albums/ww150/ajkfjaioIIl9Wkk/050609a.jpg[/IMG]
If you are trying to build a production-boosting module on the economic starbase, I believe you need Advanced Computing to enable the particular module that enables subsequent modules. When I'm through with my current Krynn game, I'll check into it further if someone else does not beat me to it. I seem to recall that Smart Drones is the key module, but I may be wrong.
I intended to invite good-natured taunting as well. I only get my tail fluffed in those "piracy is good" threads. @GmOOnii: Scoring just takes practice and developing a "feel" for the game. If your goal is to climb the ladder, you may want to consider recruiting some players. Three characters can only go so far, even with big scores. You could even encourage some of your friends to buy the game and join up with you. The more people we can get in the Metaverse, the better off we will a
[quote who="GW Swicord" reply="7" id="2189643"]GmOOnii, I most certainly wasn't trying to start a flame-anything. Jovial mockery (taunting) has a long tradition in MV circles. I was just suggesting that maybe a small gang of us little people might spend a bit more time mocking the ZYWs and Million Point Monstrosities instead of the old school empire cross-talk.[/quote] *sniffs air, follows the scent here* Did I hear someone mention taunting? By all means, bring it o
If I may be so bold, I would like to encourage you to come and join one of our Metaverse Empires. There is a wealth of strategic information contained in the Metaverse that will enable you to decimate the Campaigns!

[quote who="Emperor_Seth" reply="23" id="2185815"]Actually I've decidedto abandon the mod and I'm leaving Galciv 2 anyways.[/quote] It will suck to see you leave, but I thoroughly understand the reasons. Keep in touch, and may you find sucess in all of your endeavors.
Thanks, guys!!! The congratulations are much appreciated! Now, I am going to start working on my "short game": [IMG]http://i714.photobucket.com/albums/ww150/ajkfjaioIIl9Wkk/050509b.jpg[/IMG] I want to see how high I can drive these Year 2 scores. Hehe. Just ignore the fact that this was one of my TwP characters. The Kzinti will benefit from my experimentinv via the War Council.
*pounds shoe on table repeatedly* More lame-ass attempts by criminals to foist their malicious activities on the public and make said disgusting activities "acceptable"!!!! You can float these moronic excuses all you want, but you are lawbreakers, and you deserve to be prosecuted. I cannot imagine how anyone can possibly be so obtuse as to expect anything short of a blatantly hostile response when you comtaminate this forum with your fetid, usless, mouldering tripe!!!! You bli

[quote who="KzintiPatriarch" reply="1" id="2183194"]Thanks, and congrats on your victory! My next game I'm really hoping for another 1 milion points. Not sure what is up with the random events, or if it's just a coincidence. Sentient species taste better...[/quote] I'm turning them to low frequency from now on. Too many negative events, and no econ booms! I prefer a predictable strategy anyway. If I can get 108K in two more years, I get to join that
Since it is one of those 800K kind of days: [IMG]http://i714.photobucket.com/albums/ww150/ajkfjaioIIl9Wkk/050209.jpg[/IMG] I had 9.4 T groveling citizens this time, and I figured out how to do a couple of things even faster! Nice 883K, KP! That's a lot harder in DA than it is in ToA. @jacklv: I think you may me right. I renamed the planet from Algore to Crawford. I was thinking Cindy Crawford, of course. Not the Texas Crawford. Damn dood thing I didn't rename i

The other races do not seem to appreciate out talents, though. Take Aaron Bradley, for example. He has no sense of humor at all.

Here's what really has me worried: We are not even prepared to handle the server-side networking. Most of my fellow "end users" that I have discussed this with are convinced that the network will be so slow that our productivity will suffer while we sit at our shiny new terminals and stare at little rotating hourglasses on our screens. Additionally, when a server goes down we will not be able to do anything at all. There seems to be a serious breakdown in decision-making in large orga
In my workplace, there are preparations underway to go to a server-side network. My suspicion is that server-side software, in general, is not too far behind. As consumers, we may want to start asking some questions about how this is going to work. For example, 1) Is it going to be a one-time fee system, where you would buy a license and have permanent access to your product? 2) Is it going to be a subscription-based system, where you have to pay a monthly fee? 3) Are

[quote who="KzintiPatriarch" reply="10" id="2169989"] Everybody dont forget to start and save a few MV games in case there is more trouble in the future. It's a good idea to have some in reserve so you can keep playing even if it's down. [/quote] Good idea! I can save some YZWs in DA and some longer games in DL and ToA. I have just about got the upper hand on my ToA speed-play strategy, and should be able to produce 500k-700k games in a hurry, if need be.</

[quote who="khemintiri" reply="24" id="2169316"]no you didnt win[/quote] Of course I won, since I was taunting the pirates. Note that the pirates did not return until they thought I had left. They did not even pick apart the typos I left for them to find. I was not taunting you, because I have no arguement with you whatsoever. I just wanted to see if someone would start a "I borrowed the game from my brother/sister/dogwasher" thread.
He should get a special medal for busting 2 million points in a combined total of only 10 years. Another week or two, and he'll have all 3 of his characters wearing those medals.
