You passed me at 9:58? I submitted around 10:20, so you were ahead of me for 22 minutes!

Yes, congratulations on Fleet Admiral, Technician!

The reason I do not bring your empire up is nobody on our Empire is exploiting a major game weakness and submitting multiple 60000 point games a night.


I thought you would get some slack for that comment. What specifically are you talking about anyway?

You don't use culture bombing


Guilty, but that's my game. I don't like military games.

you don't use the 20BC/100 Turn bribe


not guilty. I've never done this.

you don't tech trade minors into bankruptcy


Actually both Technician and I are playing 1.49, and you can't really trade with minors at all anymore. I think this is an over-reaction by the developers. I think they should have made the minors smarter instead of turning off their trading ability.

Oh, I put in a theoretical score of 57,000 points into my score calculator. It says if I submitted that game tonight, I'd move into 24th spot.

Unfortunately, my hockey team's first playoff game is tonight, so I won't be posting until the weekend. That means, those players ahead of me are going to have some time to build up their lead, and Technician has his window to pass me.

Actually, if they'd just made them like the Genius AIs, they would still tech trade but only until they began to have financial trouble. I think of all the AIs, the Genius level is the best "acting".

Didn't mean to say anything against the exploits, it's just that everybody is using some form of exploit whether they admit it or not. At Maso and Suicidal, it's mandatory!

No I got my arm twisted, I have to go to dinner and a show tonight. I can not work on catching you boss until Friday.

Some people just do not understand it is more important playing GC each and every evening.

Same goes for 1.2 at least until well in to the mid-game. And by that point you've already won... Or lost anyway.

Are you speaking about the movies? Because I am under the impression that Theoden is the uncle of Eowyn, not the father.

                          
#787  by Diplomat Technician - 3/4/2004 10:38:26 AM

I stand corrected

At Maso and Suicidal, it's mandatory!


BTW, I don't think that's necessarily true. Last night I had a sweet starting position and had the AIs beat (at Suicidal) from very early on. It was a cakewalk... I rarely get 7-8 planets uncontested to start off with in a Large universe. I was beating them at everything, including population very early.

I did have one of the races declare war on me early, but he was on the other side of the universe, and I bribed the race between us to fight him, and then his war ships never made it to my space.



                        
#789  by Veteran Theoden of Rohan - 3/4/2004 10:55:03 AM

Theoden is the uncle of Eowyn, not the father.


Yup! And she is hot, isn't she?

BTW Theoden, are you sure that Captain Jack wasn't speaking about Eowyn in the story that made you angry?

Pontius and I have settled that...yes, he was referring to Eowyn and the chick from Pirates of the Caribean.

Paguma, it is not something ANYONE should look at and it is also hilarious. But it is a download, so I would not recommend looking at it at work.

                      
#797  by Citizen damoose - 3/5/2004 10:48:59 AM

Tech,

Beta 4 came out last night about 6:00 pm. Haven't played yet, I'm in the middle of one and they explictly said the save games were not compatible.

And how was dinner? Was it worth missing a night of GalCiv?

                      
#798  by Diplomat Technician - 3/5/2004 11:16:43 AM

The dinner was fine, show was excellent.

At least some people I know are happy now, but I missed my GC fix yesterday.

Would I bet that Ottawa's high flying offense can penetrate the likes of Aki Berg? Yeah, any time...
