Silver, that might kill the thread permanently! ;p Seriously, though, the idea of specifying a race to play and/or who your opponents are sounds great. One of the purposes of this league is to push people beyond their normal boundaries. I play on obscene in the league, though I'm more comfortable a level below it. And I'm thinking of going up to suicidal. That's the great thing about the league -- it lets you try things you normally wouldn't push yourself to do. Good ide

When's round 6?

[quote]Hi! Or maybe that depends on the diplo relations. If they feel good about you, treaty costs less. Will try to test that. BR, Iztok [/quote] From my experience that's not the case. It seems to be about the same "price" whether you're allied or they're "wary". But testing is always a good

Corhuskermac score for Team B: Character: Bastard Score: 10200 Years: 5 Difficulty: Obscene All other settings as per round requirements I went one step up in difficulty this time and enjoyed it immensely, even though I almost lost! This MVL is a great way to challenge yourself and thanks to all who run it for making this possible.

I've had this happen a couple of times in DA!!!

I voted.

Yes, this is all in the real spirit of the league. Let the guy learn and post later this one time.

From the info at Feud's link, it looks like the whole thing was massively overblown. Of course, most people just read/hear what they want to believe and don't check back to see what time uncovers. And the media tends to be much readier to publish accusations than retractions.

Yeah, what's wrong with Gamespot? I tend to rely on their reviews, and I also found out about GC2 through them.

As I understand it, those who Enabled blind exporation (who checked the box) were playing against the current round settings but had a slight disadvantage for doing so. I will admit that in my current game I'm one of those with the slight disadvantage. It's tremendously slight, however. Therefore, at this point let's just drop the issue. If screenshots are given in the OP, and if it's not too much work for Neilo to do this, then problems like this won't arise. Again, though, this is

Silverbeacher, I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say thanks for making and posting that formal tally sheet. :CONGRAT:

Oh, and my race was Krynn.

Score for Team B: Character: Bastard Score: 8160, political victory 5 years 1.8d DA All settings as required

I've been quiet but I'm about 1/2 way through a game. I love these smaller galaxies. There's no way I'd have time for a gigantic right now, given my RL situation. Good luck to all, and I hope you aren't too disappointed when the Blade Runners come out victorious.

Later release is my vote

As you've all noticed, I'm getting in again for round 4, not for this round. Sorry if my name caused some confusion, since I was in it for round 1. However, I can't start until next round. Whatever scoring people want to do works with me, as I'll just be happy to be back in the tournament again! Good luck to all!

I'll be back in for Round 4. I've PM'd both Neilo and Firebender about this already. Looking forward to it . . .

Here's the link to the interview (I hope it works): WWW Link Very interesting stuff on the new expansion!

@CornhuskerMac - I'm flattered that someone of your experience would be asking a a relative noob like me about the game. Ah, you know, I just realized that of course it's inappropriate of me to ask how you did it before this round's over. BTW, I meant to make no accusation of cheating at all. I'm also unaware of how someone would cheat, and if they do so in

Here's the most evil game ever played in the history of gaming! Using slight of hand, broken promises and dastardly diplomatic backstabbing, the evil Thalans gain the upper hand. A glorious battle for the history books. (Written by the victors, of course.) I for one would love to hear how you could possibly score over 20K in 6 years on a medium map with a tech victory. What happened that was so unique? I've never had a game even close to that.

So any game I put in, whether a 10000 pnt or 3000 pnt it does not matter, as long as it is not the longest? Well, you're not putting in a 10,000 point game. I officially submit that anyone who puts in a game over 15,000 should explain how the game was won, and possibly have it open to scrutiny. Who would not admit that it's somewhat fishy to have a game under these settings scoring above 15K?

I am waiting for Battlestar Galactica season 3.....Boy the way season 2 finished i bet season 3 is going to be a cracker!! It's a very interesting season, though if under the gun I'd say I prefer season 1 over them all. Nevertheless, season 3 really sets up what could be a real explosion of a season in number 4. If you liked BSG so far, you won't be disappointed by season 3. If anything, it takes the time to flesh out some of the stuff that I wis

OK, I'm sorry to say that I'll have no chance to try again for this round. Here's what my neutral bugs were able to do: Score for the A-Team: 8120 Character: Bastard Race: Thalan Years: 4 Dif: Maso Victory: Tech Galaxy: Medium Alignment: Neutral Score: 8120 v1.61DA 7/14/2007

There would be no point in full independence. As it now stands the British offer Australia protection, an influence in the UN security council, and other international standing. Plus, Australia is completely automatus and the point of breaking away complete might just raise more tension. Ah, well Australians will obviously know more about it than I will. It's just that those who were visiting that particular site were mostly of a particular opi
