@AlexTheGreat: Welcome to the game.
It seems we need three more players now to start the game, any comers ?

Approximately when is this game planned to start?
If it's more than 5-6 months I can join, if not I'll wait for WoL VI or VII.
(Tenderfoot is eating up over an hour/turn with 3 turns/week, so that's about my Stars! quota.)
|
lol. We'll have to wait for WOL6, I'm sure.
Btw, an hour?? I thought you were putting in closer to two.

Can you choose my team, please? I would like to talk with my teammate without pressure of time .

I'd be happy to team up with you if you have no objection. Time zone is the only problem I see. I am in Cebu, Philippines (GMT+8) at the moment & will be for an estimated 3-5 months. After that I will be in Sydney, Australia (GMT+10).
Craebld, I assume that we can take our teammate's turns if one cannot play for a little while? eg. when I move back to Australia I will be unable 2 submit turns for a couple of weeks while I move countries, buy furniture/equipment, get the internet on & generally set up house.

Why would an AR burden the pre-gen thingy (much) more than any other race?
If you are worried about research during the 50 year pregen you could set Energy as your research field & set GR on.

ForceUser wrote on Tue, 14 June 2011 21:01 | An AR doesn't grow in nearly the same way as ANY other race, even -f races. The problem is that a) I can't build factories or mines and b) while my pop growth is the same as a -f perhaps, my resources does not grow the same as my pop becasue of the squeare root thing.
Basically in a 50y pregen I would be severely handicapped in both minerals and resources, more so than even an HE perhaps.
So in order to NOT have that happen an AR needs a lot of help during a 50y gen to be on par with the other races.
|
I'm curious how much that disadvantage would be made up for by the avoiding of the more vulnerable early AR stages.

Hi,
I am interested in joining if there is still space left and if you will let me in (as below).
I am in the beginner catagory. It has been maybe 5 years or so since I last played Stars! and even back then though I did play my fair share of multiplayer games against human opponents I was still beginner but I played for fun. I just feel like playing Stars! again recently and just go the XP emulation working on my Windows 7 Premium with idiots guide which worked (happy days!).
I can have my race file to you as soon as (this week) and will play proper, wont miss a turn (until Im dead) that I can promise. BUT as I say I am only beginner level.
If no beginners is strictly no exceptions then no worries will keep my eye open for beginner games.
Regards,
Phil.

Sign me up and team me up for this one. Time to get this into the launch pad, for final tweaks.
GMT-5, but I'm flexible with respect to hours.
