The metaverse seems to be taking days to update - at least with my empire. The empire shows 9 games have been played, but in fact 13 have been played. I played the 11th game several days ago.
Well, I bought it 3 times: 1. With original TGN 2. With tokens from TGC 3. Collectors addition for $20.
Well, at the harder difiiculties the Majors will go to war with you even if all their trade is with you and all your trade is with them.
Myrtle Beach is a great place - we have some friends who retired there. Except for when the hurricanes come on shore.
By the time you finish a game so much time has passed that you expect ED to remember the starting conditions?
I posted this somewhere else, but cannot find it, so I am not positive I actually posted it. 1. Message shows up that says the Drengin are changing alighment - but are long gone from the Galaxy. 2. Message shows up that says the Iconians have a tech level of 2007 while I have a tech level of 2321. Two turns later a different message shows up that includes the information that my tech level is 104. The latter makes sense, The former is insane.
So, if I use the latest SN, then, it will allow me to post my past games onto Metaverse? Yes, that is my understadning.
I received a message that the drengin were going through a change and that they had changed from evil to good - after they had long disappeared from the Galaxy. Is this because they went to Hell and decided that was not where they wanted to live and changed to good so they could get to Heaven> The other interesting message I received was that the Iconians had a Tech level of 2007 and I had a Tech Level of 2321. Two turns later
Startdock generates a new SN everytime you ask and associates that number with your account.
The Galactic Guardians have not deciede at this point to reorganize. Those that were left at the end of GCI migrated over to the Galactic Core and have been hanging out there. Most have joined DG in the Galactic Diplomats, others have started their own empire of one. Not sure that Empires will play the same role they did in GCI, but stop by the Galactic Core and chat with us. http://www.thegalacticcore.com/forum/portal.php
Is there a write up on the scoreing for the game. I notice that some people who play a "beginners" difficulty on large somethimes get better scores that some one play cripling on large, which doesn't make sense at first glance.
Since I can't download until after I get off work, no big deal. I'll just jump right into the middle of the gigantic traffic jam on the net and head toward Startdock.
I will start in the middle and then decide which way to go
They may get to play the game, but they will not be able to submit those games to the Metaverse as the MV keeps. You can also put the game that you buy on all you computers at home as long as only one is being used at a time. Stardock is pretty friendly about this. But, it does leave them open to abuse.
Although I posted a new post, I will repeat it here just in case. Download of the game familed due to invalid URLs. Sent in the gc2.log to gc2bugs. I tried multiple time to download. All the movies, etc downloaded fine, but not the game.
I downloaded the 1.0.005 movies, etc, but when I tried to download and install the game it failed to install - The gc2.log says that it can't find ceratin urls (I think that is what it said). I sent the log in toe gc2bugs.
Also get events that give choices with no text.

Random changes in influence continue to occure in this version of the beta. Sometime loose more than 50% of my territory and the some number turns later I get it back.
Some interesting "bugs" in the current version that I have seen before. 1. I get messages saying that one or more of my fleets if continued to move in the current direction will cause the Drengin to declare war on some other alien. I have no fleets. If I say continue, then indded you see a battle of the Drengin being attaced by the alien and when checking, the Drengin and I are at war. So, a mix up of who is who in the system. 3. Planets with more than one space p

I am playing a game that whenever the Drengin demands payment the game CTD. Only with the Drengin.

Bug similar to those reported that CTD While playing a game and you reload from Autosave from the main menu to back up the game to the latest save, the game immediately CTDs. Does the same if you choose Previous autosave. But, upon restarting the game, you can load from either.
When I play games, I often get a CTD. No problem, I just reload from the autoload and contnue. Sometime, the autoreload also CTD. Then I load from the previous autodload. This last game, both autoload and previous autoload immediately CTD. Not sure I understand how a previous autoload can crash.
