Let me think....
Secondly Chaff disallowed...

If you are an expert you can also join the game, but maybe you should think about creating a race with a few handicaps

Anyway, I'd like to play if you can clarify exactly what "no chaff allowed" means, so the game doesn't come down to an arguement on whether those rules have been violated

The vast majority of games allow the use of chaff. All other bugs/cheats are usually banned. Chaff is generally a scout or frigate built with minimum expense to allow cheap mass production. This is often the quick jump 5 engine with x-ray laser.

*However, be warned, some players of european origin have been known to use shaft. A design which our race has not yet been able to reproduce with much success.

Actually, I was looking for clarification from the game host himself since "chaff disallowed" was his ruling, but I believe you've narrowed it down to the obvious answer anyway. Thank you.

I should have been able to figure it out myself; it's just been a very long time since I played. I guess I'm probably in the beginner class despite my limited experience so long ago.

I'd like to play.

Shaft? Is this in relation to the chaff that gets attacked by torps but not by beamers? I'm still trying to figure that out again.

I don know? I think shaft is when you forgot to arm the 5000 scouts you just designed. Instead of chaff you got shaft. Or worse yet even, build a bunch of expensive empty unarmed BBs as decoys thinking that the wise ones won't figure out what you have. Then when they send their guns to test your ships, you get the shaft!

ZZZ, I'm all for fixed teams, that way there's ONE guy who won't hate me, cuz he's not allowed. "Kumbaya my friend, KUMBAYA..." Diplomacy doesn't work well for The Zoid, try to be nice, they think I'm an easy target and attack me. Try to be tough, a lifetime feud erupts and they attack me. Try to be fair, they think I'm an easy target and attack me. Try to be neutral, they think they can't just let me sit by growing in power, so they attack me. Argh, diplomacy!

Actually, either way is fine by me. If everyone wants to bite The Zoid, that's ok too. We got big teeth. Zoid not caring about nicey-nice anymore. Just thinking about the futility of diplomacy has Zoid panties in a bunch all across the galaxy. We just kill everybody, equal opportunity killer. No trespassing, stay away. No talking. See Zoid ship? Zoid planet? No hailing. Stay away. Avoid the Zoid.

Seems the Zoid have a er ... slight inferiority complex ...

Dont worry the Yapyaps are a kind and gentle race seeking only peace and harmony ...

Are when you want to protect the flying orgy then your shaft has a purpose

Report message to a moderator

No,ok ok!
The Zoids gonna be funny I guess. I like those ... hmmmm ... unusual ... paranoid ... mind-twisted ... ah! interesting people.

If you still need players you got one more. Just let me know when and where race should be turned in.

ZZZ? Everyone picking on The Zoid aready. That's it, we just kill everyone we see now. Zoid not liking any neighbors anyways. Neighbors, bah. Zoid see neighbors, we thinking, "There goes the neighborhood. Soon they be ejecting their trash into outer space, strip-mining the place next door, and painting their planet unseemly colors. Property values plummetting." Zoid not needing that. Zoid like Zoid neighbors.

Anyways, when are we gonna begin? I can hardly wait!
