I also agree with teams of 5 for now. We're still pretty fluid as a league and the extra player gives us the flexibility that we need IMO. I'll, of course, defer to whatever decision that the commissioner makes. (I'll even be quiet about it this time).

I just checked it too. It appears that anyone can add or update a page there. (I clicked on "edit this page" and it opened a dialog. The old data is still there and can be found by clicking on "recent changes". Hopefully, an admin will come by shortly and delete the "update".

I figured I should submit this now or I might miss my chance. It's about 3k less than I estimated it would be in our team forum. (Sorry, team mates). I'll be out of pocket for a while now. I should still be able to participate in round 4 though.

This was my first game, I thought it was a low score. I don't see that as such a low score. The scoring range should be pretty low on this round due to having only 3 opponents and so few planets. I think you'll find that all scores are pretty low this round. I'd think quick games would also be common for the same reason. Mine isn't going so quickly, but those are the breaks.

Incredible game, dystopic! A 2 year mil victory is a great accomplishment! You're right up there with the top players. I hope the MV posting issue gets resolved soon. You'll be climbing the ladder pretty quickly when that's done.

I suppose I break my milestones down depending on where I am in the game. My games have gotten somewhat fluid lately, so it changes depending on what game I'm trying on. The following would be typical of a medium conquest one. First, Impulse Drive. The +1 speed affects all ships without the need to immediately upgrade. (If the colony rush looks like a short one, I skip the engines and go for diplomacy.) Trade, then Laser V. Once there, I go for Starbase Defenses,

If the turn button disappears between turns and you have ships with either autopilot or rally point commands, the game will occasionally hang up on one of those ships. A quick fix is to select a ship and re-issue the movement command. Sometimes, you might need to move as many as three ships before the game takes off again, but it's quicker than saving and reloading. Sometimes, a ship is selected and the game freezes on it, even though it has no movement points left. You can

Nice game, MarshallONeil! I'm bummed out about mine. Year 3 and I was expecting the influence victory warning. Just me (Drengin) and the Yor were left. No warning came, so I checked the victory conditions to see if I was at 75%. I had turned the victory conditions off instead of turning them on. I had a precursor mine and a nice position. A minor race was even in there. <br

Lets wait for the other 12 players' opinion. I'm not sure what we're voting for, but count me in as an affirmative vote on the way the decision went during the balloting process as the majority stated their opinion. That, or however it's decided.

I'm good with going to the team private forums, but I need the password. I tried getting in when this round started, but no luck. Will one of you email or PM me the password? Thanks in advance. I have some RL stuff to handle for a few hours, so you two go ahead and choose whatever you want. I'll take whatever is left. Sound like a plan?

You're right, as usual, Mumblefratz. I'll go ahead with the game and submit a military victory unless one of my teammates would rather have that one. I can easily convert this one to an alliance victory instead if need be.

I noticed that you and I have been dueling for #1 in one of the categories on the ALtMeta. I couldnt let you have ALL three of the military #1 spots. Demons aren't concerned with such matters. We both fight for the cause of evirul after all.

It's time to make some decisions as to the future survival of our team. With the current round well under way, games having already been submitted, and our captain being AWOL, it doesn't bode well for our team. I have started a generic game, but am at a crossroads as to what strategy to pursue, depending on which victory condition I'm assigned. I've PMed our captain and have gotten no response. Team mates, please check in here to decide how we should proceed.

One possible suggestion would be to start a game "generically" and take it to a position of getting close to the end and see how it ends in all four different victory conditions. That's a good idea. I can do that, but only finish up to the first couple of months. The strategies for different victory types can be quite different, especially if you're going for a speedy game. I'll get one started tonight. Great game, thebutterfly! <i

I have a PM in to our team captain (Team D), but haven't heard back from him. With RL stuff looming, I might only have a small window of time to play a League game. If I don't hear from him soon, I'll need to back out of this round. Just a heads up, in case I can't start a game in the next day or two.

Motti is with me. Not on the penalty issue. I'm against it. Sorry. One thing I didn't get on the high score average bit: Why divide by 5 when only 4 players' submittions count. This would put the 5 player teams at disadvantage. Yes, that would be unfair, but isn't an average either. An average would be on
