I never play AGAINST the humans so I must be missing some interesting pickup lines

The Meklar were a race in Master of Orion 2. It could be that the reference is confusing because he named himself after the same race.

I really like the "Autograph/ New to Diplomacy" line.
The Humans do have some interesting lines.

He must have been playing as the Yor.

I don't use Meklar in the game. Just these forums. Yup, a customized Yor. The miniaturization bonus is awesome. I really like how I can star a game as Yor, customize, then restart and I can reload Yor settings, customize it full (with colors), then have my wonderful race.

what do you speak of, "random name"?

The Yor and Meklar are not really a match ... Yor are more like Cylons, robots
thru and thru, while the Meklar are CYBORG like, part living creature and part
machine...

In Moo3 meklars became pure machine.

Also, what's that means " maybe thats the explanation for why the altarians look like humans!" ?
