 TunaFish, are you afraid of ARs?

I fancied with the idea of fielding a well-tested AR I had created one day...




... but I'm not saying whether or not you'll see it in this game Smile

Edit: Ashlyn, just wait till you see me playing... the A.I. plays better than me Razz

... No, rather the other way around. AR's rarely start fast enough to survive to the midgame in games this cramped.

 viewai... Game password for ai files. O.o

yup, AR are mid-late games races.. If u can ally and protect one in the early stages, u can be assured of tons of minerals in the later stages.
Fantastic partner for an IT race.

Bystander had a good idea of splitting the game, but the horse has bolted th stables.

Ps-my oracle vm sucks too.. I'll be driving to my friend's office (and owns) to use his 32 bit desktops to play my turn.
For a change I'll only be able to submit one turn a day... Starting Monday.

I know my minefields.. but I'm a chaff sweeper.
I used to curse when I got stuck in traffic... till I realised I AM traffic.

If the AR is of a good design, as I have found out to my dismay.

I use the free version of Virual PC on a win7 Home Premium machine, If you need help with XP, as in getting a copy or a good password, let me know.

PS to everyone, I visit a lot of thrift shops, and whenever I find an old XP machine for sale for parts I take a picture of the XP label on the back of the machine. So the 5 XP virual machines I run now are all semi-legal.

 Thanks for the kind offer Eddie... But I guess it has to do with my laptop not giving enough power to the vm.. 512 ram, 128 v.ram, 1 gb had isn't enough for my wim98 vm that I'm running on oracle vm box... I'm waiting for my new dell laptop to check if it's any better but failing which, I'll take the driving option zzzz

 Private forum is up.. Looking forward for the forum password too.

The starting turns will be dynamic gen, I hope, with a maximum set time?

 Yippee... By the way, it's still 2400.. How come the turn generation and game creation time differ for each other on the game page...?

 Nah, was just idly curious.... I guess it was the original offline game creation time and the time the turn was uploaded to Sah.

Edit - nah, we got our upload passwords 14 hours ago, while the turn was generated (or game uploaded as I presumed) more than 30 hours ago..
*shrugs*

 Why not have dynamic gen on with the 26 hour max gap enabled now itself?
I'm sure bystander will check in within the next 12 hours for sure...

 Your name reminds me of one of Doc Who's best episodes... Blink.
It was nice of you to do that, but I really won't call you just to start the game... Might call just to say a "Hello and thanks for hosting though" Smile.

 I'm guessing it isn't his HE but another race he's been interested in recently... Wish I had fielded that myself, sigh..
