Hi!

Though, with 100 years generation it probably doesnīt matter if we have max minerals or not.

It does matter. There's no option to get better minerals on the secondary planet (no 30 floor, no RW points to min conc), so there will be 1-2 tech levels difference if one gets good germ and another one bad. Also, battles among 1WW races are usually won by the player who manages to get the most minerals. I'd strongly recomend using max minerals for this game, to negate bad luck effect with secondary planet.
BR, Iztok

You could try posting at the newsgroup as well, there are players that don't visit the forum but do frequent rgcs,

Or you could have donjon post it on "The List". I managed to get some more players that way for my game...

Anything I didnt cover?




Random events.

Should they be switched off?

Would be unpleasant to be hit by a comet in the 100 year gen.

Random events will be switched off, and the game starts when I have enough players (which could be some time).

I hope you are not postponing the game till TWWT ends only because what I said. Though TWWT has big similarities with this game, I donīt actually KNOW that the players in that game would be interested in this game.

TWWT are still waiting for a spot on Autohost, so it can take some time before it ends.

And if the situation for Overloaded isnīt bad enough as it is, the newest game posted on the forum has similarities to Overloaded as well.

I recommend you just continue to wait for players to join your game, but donīt expect it to be filled in the near future. There is always hope though.

Seems wise.

I guess there is no one out there ready to jump straight into action.

I have asked my brother(!) if he wants to join the game. He too is currently occupied with a game, though.

If he accepts, it will be the first time we meet in a game with additional humans. It would be.............interesting.

Twisted Evil Interesting indeed Twisted Evil
Would bring a new and intergalactic meaning to 'sibling rivalry'

But I've got enough on my table already...no time for a new game, and I haven't even checked out the specs properly. Might not be my kind of game.

Lord Mushroom vs Prince Toadstool? Dueling

Surely, t'would be an epic battle between the deliciously edible Lord M and the poisonous, evil brother.

Can hardly wait for the Agaric Wars to begin. Twisted Evil

I am sad to inform you that I will not join Overloaded. Crying or Very Sad

In fact, I have given up stars! alltogether (see "Replacement needed for TWWT" in "The Bar" for my reasons).

The neverending argument of who is the best (least bad) stars!-player in the family thus continues. Silly really, we both know who that is....
(Lord Mushroom is making fists and bending his thumbs backwards whilst flexing his arms) Very Happy

I should inform you, though, that when some weeks (days?) pass, my stars!-abstinences might start to kick in and the Underestimator (no, I didnīt get it wrong Razz ) sometimes asks me for help regarding warship-designs. Twisted Evil

So if he decides to join, which I doubt now that I am out, some of his warships MIGHT be designed by me.

You can tell the difference in this way:
Warship-designs that work are mine.
Warship-designs that doesnīt is his. Razz

Oh, yes believe that. It............eh............might be true.

The moon might also be a green cheese....

One day, LITTLEbrother Nana nana bubu , Mushie my lad, we shall have a go at it in the same universe. Until then let us just look at the trackrecords:

Me: Winner/winning team or high end placement in almost every single game.

You: ....not so much into the winning thing Rolling Eyes

You mean in all the beginner/intermediate games you have joined? Razz

Quote:

True, my online-records are less than spectacular Embarassed , but you are painting a very black picture here (I hope this is an actual expression).

But playing with skilled people have made me learn. Twisted Evil

Didnīt one of us have to give up quite early in our latest duels? Razz

And didnīt one of us ask the other for advice before starting a new game recently? Razz
Advice that was not fully taken into account if I might add.

Now let us let that be the final input in this debate. Cool

Anyway, since I am retired I am technically not a stars!-player anymore, so perhaps we could say you technically are the best player.

Perhaps some day in the future the Underestimator and I will cooperate playing one race. I would design the race, play the early turns, design important warships and he would do the rest. Should that ever happen, may the gods have mercy on you souls. Twisted Evil
