My day was ruined when the universe blew up!

Yes, I did commit a few acts of genocide.. But the dark yor started hatin'

After four weeks of successfully appeasing my genocidal tendencies on 8 races, I was half way through my campaign of killing the Terrain’s to complete total galactic domination when the universe blows up… after blowing up there was a message saying I should have visited the web site, and known not to be a big bully.. I thought that the point of a universal domination! Can someone tell me why they universe blew up, and what my "anger management" issues had to do with it?

What the hell?

You've got screenshots of that? Or a save game?

Btw. what exactly do you mean with blowing up. Never heard of that btw. Can it be that someone had a research victory?

Maybe it was the end of the demo?

What the hell? You mean they ganked you, or the universe ended? Ganking is part of 1.1, to stop people from wiping people out one after the other.

I mean the universe ended.. Game over.. you know in the intro movie it says both of the races disapeared without a trace.. Well, i guess that is what happened.. I hit the turn button and started moving my ships around to finish off the last 5 terrian plants, and I notice my approval rating said.. N/A in big red bold letters.. I said how can that be possible.. it was 100% just a second ago.. So i looked at my list of controled plants to see who was rasing the stink.. and There were no more plants.. the full list of planets was empty... MY WHOLE CIVILIZATION VANISHED WITHOUT A TRACE... well seeing how i could not micro manage anything... all my ships were moved.. I hit the turn button... and a little movie played, and I see chunks of the universe flying all over the place.
Then you get an end game screen what says i made 2368900 points for playing the game.. I made the universe blow up by being a bully and i should have visited the web site too prevent this from happening...
Now i have visited the web site, and i dont see anything about the universe blowing up!

I did not have version 1.1, i was not playing a demo.. And i upgraded to 1.1 after the universe ended..

wow, i really hope you get an answer, but since you blew up the universe you might not get one. thats insane and yeah id love that many points. i have dominated the universe like that in 1.0 and never had it happen, and i did the same thing, wiped one after another out, in 1.1 and didnt have it happen either

I don't know how to comment. Perhaps I shouldn't even have posted...

It's nothing to do with what you did. It was a bug, because I've lurked on the forums A LOT, read pretty much all of the Dev's posts, and unless memory has failed me there is NO "Gnab Gib" feature.

At Least you weren't insulted by a green alien in a silver ship.

Put down the crack pipe and head to the nearest rehab facility.
