That would be difficult to do, considering that these latest games of mine only last at most 6 turns past April 8th. I finish anywhere from April 22nd to May 22nd, depending on certain factors. If we did as you suggest Neilo, we'd need a different category for every turn-ending date to display true parity in comparisons, which would be very cumbersome. As for my best score on April 8th, I'm not sure, but maybe about 145-150k? I'm curious to end a couple new ones on t

Hey Neilo...good to see you around here again. :) Not once did I ever ask one of my members to try to spy on the ToE forums, and for people like Snark or Motti who had characters in both empires, I made sure they agreed not to divulge empire-proprietary secrets from/to either empire. Sure, we would have liked to know if you had some techniques that we didnt, but I wouldnt have wanted to get them in that way. As to what individual members might have tried without my knowled

Another moderate increase: Not a great setup initially, but other random factors during the game really helped. And nope, I dont mean anomalies. ;) <span style="font-size: small; color: #

My latest: Had a great setup with this game, plus I refined a few things. A hint for anyone that is interested...try different super-abilities. :) <span style="font-size: small; c

Hey Silver! Good times to remember for sure. :) We were really kicking butt for that last part of the MV League! There really isnt any MV empire competition anymore, but it was quite a competition with the Tyranny. Both empires churning out million-point plus games and dozens of ZYWs. What sort of character do you play in WoW? Eagerly awaiting Elemental, still... <img src="ht

New personal best, breaking the 200k mark! [quote who="jacklv" reply="137" id="2672638"]The last two stars of our game, CL and Maiden have been driven away. The first by SD's outright incompetence and the second by player jealously. Both were helpful to all, especially to new players...the life blood. They openly shared their thoughts and findings.<br /

That password is only one layer of protection in the forums. Even with the password, nobody without the correct permissions granted could get still get in. Dont worry to much about it Maiden. And it will soon be completely irrelevant. :) But yes, that was in very bad form Mumble. I chose not to comment on it before, because it is what I have come to expect anyway. Thank you for the apology. RGB2012 and Scanian, thank you for your comments as well. Yes

An interesting rhetorical flourish, but ultimately facetious. At the point at which Kryo (or another creator of the game) says that a particular exploit or strategy is not MV legal, the opinion of the average player loses much of it's relevance on that specific issue (in my opinion). Whatever you, or I, or other player think on the matter, is superseded by Kryo's statement. I believe that it is the right thing to do for those who wish to play on the MV to accept that determi

When ARC was first discovered and proposed, I did not think it was a good idea. The thought of modifying the raceconfig files from outside the game didnt seem quite right. The majority of people thought otherwise though, and so it became accepted practice among the community, including myself. This is indeed when the "slippery slope" was first started. Mumble, one thing I have noticed over the years of communicating with you, is that you often attribute ulterior moti

[quote who="Mumblefratz" reply="14" id="2649382"] "all because at that time I failed to mention Kryo's name and only then simply because he had not yet made that [/quote] Yes, as I said, this is exactly the case. When one of the creators of the game says, "______ is not MV legal", then in my opinion (I know others disagree), it should no longer be used for MV games. Kryo's statement certainly holds immensely more weight than yours, or mine, or any other random player

Hey DA, good to see you. :) There is certainly some truth in what you say. There are still some of us playing and having fun with the game, whether that be on the MV or not. Sentient species taste better...

Mumble, if as you claim, you were merely going about trying to ensure fair-play, why not tell me, the Kzinti (or the GC2 community) that Kryo had said that this DL exploit was not MV legal? This is not something I had heard until yesterday when I asked Kryo about it specifically. Obviously your agenda was not what you say, but was instead intended as an action against the Kzinti directly. If you know me at all, you should also know that I never condone cheating (we'll fore-g

Glad to hear a response from you Mumble. Personally I have never used that Dread Lords exploit, and as to others who have done so (in any empire), or tried to do so, which includes yourself Mumblefratz, each person must follow their own conscience. If you consider this cheating, as you say, then the Swindle all-diplomacy strategy, which Purge created and you helped develop and strongly promulgated, should also be considered cheating, for it too gives the AIs absolutely zero chan
