How about not creating another team to maintain 4 players per team. But rather have 5 players per team as we have enough players. How about it? In this way, each team has exactly 5 players and the new recruits would be the sixth player in the same way as the fifth player now. More teams mean more complication. We must reduce complication, not add to it. -Scot

I know a recipe for rich chocolate sauce. Want that?
My idea is to make Earth( and maybe one more good PQ planet) purely tax-economic, extend trade routes to friendly races and militarily powerful races, cover those trade routes with economy starbases, sell those SBs to my trade partner and keep doing that over and over, while researching, and selling freighters/corvettes every so often until something happens that I have to lay off on the routine and actually take action Big mistake pesky. Don't sell your
Butterfly is now counted.
I only had 4 shots of tequila, 3 rum and cokes, half a bottle of Jack Daniels, a fourth of vodka, a shot each of Bacardi, Black Velvet, Jim Beam, Jose Quervo, Cutty's Scotch, Southern Comfort, Royal Crown, Captain Morgan, and some glasses of Guiness Only? I didn't feel like drinking much tonight. How noble of you, Marshall. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/T_DL/smiles/Smile.gif" border=0 align=

I cant record your score today butter. Real life concerns. I'll be sure to add you on my list tommorow. -Scot
TP you want religion in here? No. Heck no. (no pun intended) Thank you Kryo, yes as Mumble said the The Metaverse League would be the best i think. This is great, again thanks Can we have the sticky on the main forums? seeing as not many people actually go into the metaverse sub-forum. Still, It'd be great if we got the front page. A single post of "Galactic news" would be nice. <img src="http://images
Nice strategy. What I don't get is how can you get so many colonies in 31 turns?
Seriously, what are you talking about? Ghost said it in his kryo summoning ritual. Everyone start the Kryo summoning ritual, on my mark. Ready? Go! Kryo, by the power vested in me by MarcusCardiff, I do summon thee! -Scot
I was exactly like peskyfly when I was waiting for my box to arrive. At the first few games it might seem boring. But after a while, I can garrentee that you'll be addicted. I once went 5 hours straight playing the game and didn't even notice. And there was still temptation on the "a few more turns wouldn't hurt". That dialog box is evil I tells ya. EVIL! -Scot

It seems there is a lot more to discuss then what I previously thought. New discussions are being born from the ideas of old. With the opening of this thread we can safely say that the league is now indeed flexible and does facilitate the player's suggestions. Galciv2 rockz. In a few days I will have my new graphics card. Maybe the Nvidia 7900 GS. Is there any noticable difference between the 7900 GS and the 7900 GT? I want a user's opinion. -Scot <b
Galciv2 v2.0 might tweak the random race selection in DL. Although I can't be sure.
so, if we give a bonus point for highest team score, it is more of a team effort, I second this motion. And I also suggest that the cumalative years or the team should be counted and the team with the least years would get a 1 point bonus. Also, I need thoughts on what I said before my last post. -Scot
1. Are the oponents random or can I pick? 2. Can I choose the number of small races? 3. Can I forbid the computer to give himself up? No.1: You can pick. No.2: It should be set at random because DL players don't have the option of selecting random races. No.3: If you want. Basically, other then what is prescribed in the challenge, you are free to choose everything else. -Scot
TP, do you have all of the scores from round 1 handy to do a comparison? Yeah. I'll just do the Team D scores in your scoring system. Let's see here... Their combined score was 40,710 Average: (475 + 22875 + 3875 + 13485) divided by 4 = 10,177.5 Since I didn't fully understand what your scoring system thing is, I'll leave the rest to you. we might well be playing in the Meatverse League..
"Themo?" *echoes* *Tries again* "Themo?" *echoes* Anybody? *echoes* *turns off light and closes the door and leaves* I guess without the star player this thread will die. Too bad. I wanted to see what happens next. -Fire
I would also support eliminating any kind of negative points for everything except the non-submital. Right now if I remember correctly we have a minus 1 for slowest game and lowest score. I don't think we need to add to someone's grief over their performance by giving negative points. Also adding the two team cumulative categories gives enough incentive to not be slowest or lowest. I think that's enough incentive. My idea. <img src="http://images.stardo
It is still summer. I still don't get it.
No, though if the AI intelligence reset issue occurs that would definitely have an indirect effect on your score. you mean when the AI turns from "intelligent" to "fool" on the tough difficulty.
there would be no reason to play any other game, ever. Or do anything else! Ha ha, yeah, screw life! The graphics aren't good enough anyways. LOL! And the sound effects are a disapointment. Don't forget the story. And the gameplay... dont get me started. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/T_DL/smiles/Laugh.gif" border=0 align="
Xei Win Toh counted. I do dislike the tiebreaker thing just because someone may simply have started the game later. I'm also beginning to think that the 3, 2, 1 bonus points puts too much focus on individual play. If we made all bonuses simply 1 point and played ties as is then I think it would be better. This would mean if there were two 3 year games and two 4 year games then four people would get 1 bonus point, however if there were three 3 year games and t
HMMMMMM.....? Have seen them come and go. And if that sounds discurenging, well there's always Bahrain. Huh?
No offence taken, neilo. I did get a bit ahead of myself. Moving on... Anyway, I got the scores and submittions safely tucked away in my computer. These are the submissions that are now in the league. Tell me if I missed someone's submittion: Ghostwes ShadowWorrior Piznit MarshallO'neil MumbleFratz Xei Win Toh submitted already? Did I miss anyone?
