Will the Political Machine forums ever be placed in the SD Central app? I really enjoy having the Gal Civ forums and the other Stardock product forums all there.

I do not believe this story has received nearly the amount of attention it deserves. Here you have a right wing talk show host that bashes anyone that uses drugs when he himself is an adict. He has held himself to a higher standard than the rest of the population and should be revealed to be the hypocrit he is. The EIB acronym should now be Excellence In Bulls***.
[quote]Should I indeed join the pirate crew of GROSS? Whatabout those Whiskey people or the wholesome WhiteCouncil?[/quote] The Council I just read is coming back online but will not be competeing for the score. The Whiskey guys are all drunk and they are missing most if not all of their teeth. I really see no other alternative other than GROSS. ~SDC~
I just posted a 4500 point mini bomb. Trying to work my way into the top 50. Wish me luck! :) ~SDC~
[quote][releases exploding sheep to wander down to GROSS HQ][/quote] Me turned that sheep into me own lil play toy mate just like those bloody Anzacs do with 'em. ~SDC~
[quote]Thanks for your response all the same, geez yiou've got some XP under your belt there (game wize) . . . what system are you running bro? [/quote] I'm actually running the game on my laptop. 2.4 GHZ, 256 RAM, 16 MB Video Card, Windows XP. I play alot but am still no where as good as I'd like to be. ;) ~SDC~
I haven't had any troubles to speak of with the new build. ~SDC~
[quote]I just hope the designers and Coding Techs can get rid of the gremlins in this first edition befor they release the expansion. [/quote] I notice from the metaverse that your last game was posted on the 14th using version 1.04. Have you tried the new version? It seems to be working for lots of people. ~SDC~
[quote]Welcome to our newest Marauder. Jus4Golf!!!!!![/quote] Thank you! I have decided to move over to the dark side and hope I can contribute in the ongoing efforts of kicking some major alien ass!!! ~SDC~
Excellent work everyone! We've moved by the Euros! Ray congrats on moving into 2nd! ~SDC~
This game is also available with your Drengin.net subscription. ~SDC~
I believe what you are talking about is that Stardock can take our Metaverse submissions and improve upon the AI. This will be in updates and expansions. If this isn't what you were asking I'm certain one of the brains around here can give you a better reply. ;) ~SDC~
You may want to put this over in the WinCustomize forum. May get a quicker response. ~SDC~
I knew the scores were always different didn't know about the games played deal. Thanks. ~SDC~
We moved ahead of the Canadians! Back in 3rd and moving on up!!! ~SDC~
No the submitted score is whats shows up but it is not added to your total. Like I scored 4800 and my actual score went up like 1200 pts. So I showed like 2800 on the leader board and went up to like 4000. I am not complaing about this I like it just fine. Just pointing out that if someone plays one game and shows 10000 there score on the leaderboard will be like 2500 or something. So the scores show up in the profile correct but there is still an equation used to get the metaverse leader board
[quote]Really makes our old games irrelevant, doesn't it?A newbie who plays one of those is going to be ranked 13 on the Metaverse.[/quote] It still adjusts for the Metaverse score. It looks to be about 25% of the actual score. ~SDC~
Just a heads up that v1.05 is available through SC. ~SDC~
[quote] It is on our to do list to add response codes from the submission so that the user can be notified whether or not their game submission failed or not.[/quote] WOOHOO!!! That is truly great news!!! Thanks again to all Stardockians. ~SDC~
[quote]Do you need these news? I can get it for all major empires. By the way, it seems that Canadian Star Federation will be 1st soon. [/quote] I personally think it's great Ellestar! The Canadians have seemingly come from nowhere and taken over. We may have to work up a special spell for them. I actually believe that once the scoring is restored to normal they will quickly fall out of favor with the metaverse gods. :) ~SDC~
Once again sincere thanks to Ellestar for proving that even with all the bickering that goes on we are all still a community. Not that I dislike the bickering mind you. ~SDC~
[quote]It is suprememly arrogant to decry one game SUXXORS because you dont like it...that implies that the folks who like the game you feel is so lame dont know anything about games or at least are not as COOL as you because you know which games are good and bad. You dont. You know which ones you like and which ones you dont like. [/quote] You are absoulutely correct. I am guilty of this and apoligize to any I offended and/or p'd off. ~SDC~
I also agree with Staffa's scoring suggestions. This is quite painful to agree with someone from GROSS our arch rivals. You know he must have good plan then. ;) ~SDC~
More medals would be cool. Me like shiny things. ~SDC~
Hey guys, I'm going to holf off posting any more games until the new build comes out. I scored a 9000 point game last night which posted as 900 which correlates to my score raising 50 points. I'd just as soon avoid the frustration with the metaverse until they get it fixed. ~SDC~
