nah, i meant instead of your cultures fighting at the borders, yours reinforces your allies', which would clear up the planet-giving issue. Define the borders the normal way, but have your culture's effect reinforce your ally's culture and benefit your ally the same as you, which would clear up schod's objection to the idea.

[quote] Well, to Starforce's credit, it did do a very good job of stopping piracy of the games protected by it (other than unplugging your IDE drives when loading off the image, which is the only 'crack' of it I've seen while I paid attention). Of course, the side effect of it was that it also did a very good job of screwing up legit users, too <img id="ImageResize_Image_2" onload="ImageResizer.createOn(this);" src="http://images.stardock.com/smiles/Tongue.gif" align="absmidd

ahhhh, the classic torrent finder/DRM provider. I may hate them, but I do have to give them credit for their advertising ingenuity. Why not use some of their profits to do exactly what they claim they will stop? Come to think of it, that isn't all that novel, considering Capone and the rest of the boys were doing it in the '30s, but I'm glad to see Russia catching up. I hope they come out with a beta 4 torrent in 7 days to prove their value that turns out like the last one did, except even less

Ive played sins endlessly on my laptop, and v and b which are the keys which give you a smooth zoom, work really well, and help keep your left hand right by the hotkeys, which are very intuitive. To be honest, the v,b zoom is smoother than with a mouse wheel. z,x,c gives three levels I never use, and jumps disconcertingly fast, so I don't like to use them either. I've gotta be honest, but v and b are faster than the scroll wheel and make it eaiser to zoom on a particular ship.

Think it'll run sins on high at the very least, more likely highest, well, until you downgrade to vista, then i'm not sure. You have a faster videocard, but it has much less video ram than mine, but at 1280x1024 the smaller frame buffer shouldn't hurt much at all. I do get a tiny bit of lag at the start, but that's more likely because I only have 1 gig and a slow hard drive. Other than then, I don't get any lag on highest.

Hey, why don't bet on how many noobs schod can take down solo? I bet 5 or so, after then the economics get to be a bit too stupid, but till then he can overwhelm them with only his faith in himself.

can't get a physical copy with tokens. If you preordered with tokens, there's a complicated deal they set up, but you should just preorder the CE.

might help, but there's still the risk of misclicking... But doing something like that might make it easy to not accidentally sell my civ instead of winning the battle, and I would not object one bit.
