Creche 2 has ended prematurely due to a egregious rules infraction by one of the players.  Therefore, I hope others agree with me declaring the Mightyboosh as winners. Congrats Dave/Vostromo! I would also like to thank our host, Iojho, who has undoubtedly dealt with a lot of drama in this one. I look forward to playing with all of you again.
As for me, I enjoyed the game thoroughly. I have only played HP JOATs until this, so I was dumbfounded by the speed at which -f IT can expand. It was relatively simple to hem in and then to popdrop a neighbor into oblivion, as I did with the Birds. However, -f is non-stop balls to the wall. Instead of continuing to build fleets and to expand, I chose to terraform some planets and research W16 first. With a 19% growth rate, my planets filled up faster than expected, and my total growth fell off a cliff. I was surprised by the Myth's attack around 2440, but it was a good kick in the behind. I started building warships once again, while taking only acceptable losses. The main issue was wasting valuable resources crashing Myth's minefields. My hab range also didn't mesh well with theirs. Therefore, I hoped to contain the Myth while attacking the Mags, who had several large green planets within range, around 2450. Unfortunately, Patrick's absence from the game led to a one-sided confrontation. On the last generated turn, I was fourth in score. I would appreciate any comments or criticism on my play.
