"Sir, I have an update on the PAM research. It seems our Scientists have found an officer willing to taste-test the mystery meat."
"Are you telling me he's willing to eat it? Who is this man?"
"Vice Admiral Littlewotts, Sir."
"Get my box of medals, Lieutenant. I want to meet this man! And have him begin the taste-tests immediately!"
"Right away, sir!"

Have the poison control team standing by! I don’t want to award the medal posthumously.

I better get back to work now. (Those of you familiar with 'Tequila Sunrise'--Mel Gibson, Michelle Pfeiffer, Kurt Russell, and Raul Julia--may remember the scene where Raul Julia's character has two walkie-talkies, one for the drug smugglers, and one for the DEA, and if he talks into the wrong one at the wrong time there will be quite a mess! Well, trying to write my work-writing and my fun-writing here on the forums is feeling a little like that this morning! Gotta focus! Catch up with y'all later.)

What does the medal look like? A piece of spam from the frying pan.

I am glad someone is checking into the "PAM" weapons system. Thank you littlewotts for volunteering to taste test. And, of course, thanks to Major Dallas for finding the weapons.

Well, with Techs instructions, it doesn't seem too bad...

                          
#7285  by Citizen Lothmorg the Black - 4/8/2004 1:16:36 PM

Oh. I got it bad. Here I am, eating lunch at my desk and reading the forum. My coworker calls over and asks if I'm done eating yet. I say ...

"No, I'm still Greldonizing it."

And they said "Hey, I've heard of him, he's that guy on the internet who likes stories"

You guys are too much! ROFLMAO

Lothmorg, there is no hope for you

Major D, the skull and crossbones icon has nothing to do with morale, it's a sign that you are lacking in influence rating for that sector and the system is in danger of flipping to another AI. You can get rid of it by raising influence enough (improvements, wonders, techs that give inf boost, inf resource starbases, culture starbases). I think the big G was pulling your leg a little bit.

Oh, and WTG MC. I guess the best I can ever hope to hit on that list is 4th now.

Hey guys. I must say you guys are on top of your game this morning. Clever, funny, and brilliant.

BOOM!!!

Just 7k off the front page now

Anyone tried the new 'M' build yet? Is it OK to run with?

Trying it now.

I am waiting for the bug thread to go a few days. I learned from the last one. Of course you could archive, save it somewhere and try the update and if it is too buggy restore the J.

Howdy, and good day to you all.

I'm seriously considering grabbing AP, can any of you give me some pros and cons?

                  
#7296  by Citizen littlewotts_ - 4/8/2004 2:42:08 PM

pros and cons?


It is sweet (pro) but you run the risk of bugs (con)

The two extra races are cool too.

It probably depends on your favoured map size. I would say AP is easier on the larger maps due to all the extra trade opportunities, but harder on the smaller maps due to the galaxy being very cramped. Aside from the 2 new races, the only other major change is that some SB modules now cost to build, and culture bombing has been made more realistic.

The big plus from a metaverse point of view, is that AP games score better. I'd definitely say go for it.

Oh, bear in mind it is a beta, so there are bugs!

If you are running for points (I hate to admit it, but yeah, that's me), the points are more that worth it.

I say get it. It is beta now but as with everything Stardock does, they will fix it if it needs it. I like the higher scores but I also enjoy the extra races that are included.

A nice feature is you can either play AP or regular Galciv. I have an icon for each on the desktop.

The only con is a temporary one with beta bugs but they will soon be gone...

I also liked that the download was not bad even on my dialup connection...just under an hour...and worth every minute.
