Lothmorg The Black of the Galactic Guardians has taken the gold from Greldon, and in the process blew right past the two million points marker. Congratulations on a fantastic achievement!

I couldn't have done it without the constant pressure of another fellow Galactic Guardian ... Greldon!

Thank you, Greldon.

Congrats, Loth, from the other medal holder (at least for now!)

Thank you, Alex.

If the three of us banded together, I think we'd have a good go for the top empire as well.

Not that I'm leaving the Guardians, of course.

Although, we are always looking for good members and you fit the bill pretty well. Wanna join?

Lothmorg has played 379 games in a period about 92 days. That's an average of 4.1 gigantic conquest games per day. Since it takes me about six hours to complete a gigantic conquest, I wouldn't have been able to match that even if I gave up sleeping.
Say it only takes him two hours to win a game; that's still 57.4 hours per week, more time than most people spend working for a living.

Congratulations, Lothmorg!!

the thing with submitting so many games is that if they slow down there scores will definatly be hit hard with the aging.. so there is still hope for regular players.. They can't keep it up forever...

Grats Lothmorg

From that msg.. i gathered that there was a bug where games after a few blocks that the games disapeared.. but i'm talking about normal aging.. ie: the normal game aging... where it drops games by 10% after 30 days etc... that is still in effect.. and with the number of games that they play its a rather large amount to loose in eash aging block.. all they 'd have to do is have a month when they don't play as many games and you'll notice that when they resubmit a game it'll drop quite a lot.. eg: (an extreme case) if "Free Tibet" were to post a new game now her score would suffer a big drop due to 3 months with no submissions.. not saying that they'd be that lax in submisions.. but it would them hard.. even with my scores I noticed 2 drops of about 60,000+ after a month of not submitting (through no fault of my own.. my computer wasn't working and couldn't play) if real life ever intruded on their game time they'd have to play about 1/3 extera games / month to keep their scores increasing.. and thats a lot of games when you play as many as they do each month

So If others keep their games regular (maybe post more games even) then they'll catch up (maybe... if no1. and no2. don't notice...

)

#14 by Diplomat Blue_Steel - 5/14/2004 12:31:23 PM

VTW... confrats on your games guys... you are indeed making life hard for us with real lives to keep up with you... you deserve to be where you are... (but it won't stop me from trying to catch up) just look at my score with about 50 games... multiply my score by 6 ( 635664 * 6 = 3813984) at the same rate of play as i'm going at I'd be beating you..

so the moral to the story is slowly but surely wins the race
(fair enough you would be further ahead by then.. but ratio wise I'd have caught up considerably

)

Just don't give up just because they are so far ahead... we can do it...

Congrats Lothmorg on no. and 2million points

I'm already an honorary Guardian (and Jedi and Ringer and Diplomat....)

40 minutes average these days....

You, or him? I'm not surprised by people like you winning huge alliance victories that fast, but I'll believe a gigantic conquest in that time when I see it.

#19 by Citizen Greldon - 5/14/2004 6:08:00 PM

It takes me 80 to 90 minutes to complete a large conquest.

So if you switch to the Alexus method, you could double your output of 60K games. Might be enough to get you back to number one...

I was actually inquiring myself...

I don't think Greldon needs anymore encouragement.
