Reply to Metaverse Scoring, question for T-Man in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Geoffrey: the score itself never disappears from your record. It's value to your score, is what we're after. And that we don't know for sure untill you submit another.

Email of the day. Dear Joe Liberman. After your poor showings in these primaries so far, I suggest you get out for the good of the party. Sincerely: Howard Dean.

Reply to Wars that never end in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I guess it comes down to the choice of breaking an alliance vs continuing a war. I would think especially a weak civ would break an alliance rather than keep fighting itself to the death to honor it. Do the puter civs ever break an alliance? If they were allowed to that might shake things up a bit in other ways though. Another thing. When you're allied with two different civs at war with each other, I doubt either would just sit there and not expect you to come

Yes, Welcome to threadzilla where this week it's the all recruiting show....AS I can be just as vague as Tom Lemming, then claim I called it all the way, I decided to have my show here. Q1 from Bob (south Bend) That Cameron Colvin Kid where's he going. Pontius. He's a Lock for USC. But he may just surprise you and go to michigan. They're making inroads. Bob So what you're saying is you don't know? Pontius. Heck no. He's going to USC, unless of cou

They are the best in the midwest and it's always so fun to see them beaten by the Pac10. Although I reserv

Well solitaire has his. So much for the second theory. I'll bet ya they have to submit a game for the new stuff to poof up on their record. And I bet 1 bottle of mogen David from the pirate stores if you're current top 25, you wont see em.

Reply to Former Number One Medals in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Well so much for that theory. Staffa doesn't have his either, nor does EBZ have his former top 25. And they are out of the top 25. They are probably fixing them.

Reply to Former Number One Medals in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I'm guessing the reason his former #1 medal (and mine too for that matter) aren't showing is we are currently still in the top 25. It shows in the same slot as your top 25's and such. Though it might be nice even though I'm in the top 25 to also have that showing.

Speaking of crocodiles, How bout bringing your kid out to feed the crocs like the Aussie hunter. Oh My!!! I'll tell you what, no matter what you know or think you know what you're doing. A wild animal is still a wild animal and that was a juicy tidbit for sure. We had a comedy show up here and the comedian brought a chicken onto the set (he not the chicken wa dressed as the aussie hunter) and he goes on and on about feeding the croc the chicken while the baby was safe. It was hilarious.

Although heck it's not the first time the academy has totally gone ga ga over an undeserving film because they liked the subject matter and forgot to evaluate actual quality (see Ghandi, See Amadeus, both of which were terrible.)
