Veto! I want my old banner back! It was special. The new one is just...normal. Team D is not normal we are exceptional.

On topic: I find both methods intriguing. I kind of like the idea that the captain can screw it up for his team. Being there for one another is what team sports are about. If we do this I strongly advocate that a new captain can only be put into place between rounds. Yes this makes the league more dangerous. But let us listen to an 18th century philosopher on these ideas: "Whatever is fitted in any sort to excite the ideas of pain, and danger, that is to say, whatever is

Do you have that too? I can't post normal replies anymore. I MUST use advanced mode! The only thing I am wondering about: Was the computer trying to tell me to shut up or was it trying to complement me by stressing that all my replies are advanced? Don't answer this. I was just ruminating and I do not want to spoil the working atmosphere in here.

Two questions: 1. Does Altmeta also record our past/present (rounds 1-4)? 2. Are there any problems with the different scoring system (like with reposting games) that are relevant for us?

One game per round is not much of a problem, is it? Well, save your game when you know it's over (before hitting end turn for the last time). Look at your score. play a few more games. Post the best. Only problem: you get no medals and stuff for the games you dismissed.

Team (SUQC) (SUQC=Short unqalified comment) PS: I'll never do the empty space thing again - promised - but I had to do it ONCE.

[quote]I currently have just the 1 character that I submit games under so I could easily create a MVL character for an "AltMeta" empire. I would be in favor of that. [/quote] Do that then. I agree that it is not a good idea to make membership in this empire mandatory. But I also believe we should try everything possible to make it easier to find our characters for calculating scores. I also like the graphical depiction of the empire in altmeta (it shows the span of posts we cover, which

Has there been any information in the other league threads about the existence of this thread? I only came across it by mere chance, but I have a lot of rl on my hands these days, so my gaming and forum time is limited. I just want to be sure that people are not left out of the decision process because they don't know there is something to decide. If they know but do not care or if they don't know because they do not read the current round threat in that case I do agree with mumble, as long

Time problems again (sigh). But at least I have a game to submit, which I hereby do. My poor team... Well, I was my ally's pet... Character: Chrysalis Political Victory, conditions as demanded Score: 2550 Years: 3 Date of posting to the metaverse: 11/10/07 Crippling evil Version: v1.80e DA Submission time: see post

As long as the metaverse is off, we can use the free cash for experimenting with the new stuff - which I quite like. But then again, it is no help when it comes to balancing issues...

[quote](Citizen)PlayJeff45November 11, 2007 15:03:21Reply #147 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. Blade who? [/quote] He was trying to spell BladeJeff45. He must have noticed that you/we are always winning. Guess some spelling exercis

I got "only" one presursor thingy on my homeworld for the tournament plus a few more goodies. But then I didn't restart. Ithought it was the tournie setting.

Good ideas Lenara!

[quote]um, doesn't 49+49+2=100 ??? [/quote] ups I mean 3, 49, 49. I think it was. I showed it to my wife and she teaches Maths, but then was she really listening? Did I just miscalculate? You've got me confused now!

2% mil, 49% each civ and tech

I've just played a beta game on suicidal - my first one for TA - and it was too easy: I had no financial problems at all: I played as the Arceans (influential version) and made a true RUSH for empty space. I followed the normal colony rush with an empty space space station rush. I also built the restaurant. I got so much money from tourism that I NEVER ever built an economic building (except the economic capital) or a single freighter. I did pump up my influence resource for even more money.

It may just be rounding, but in the 2nd TA beta, I anaged to adjust my sliders for a total of 101%. Edit: I may just have coounted wrong, shame on me!

Emergency over. Sorry I made a fuss, but it was not without reason (RL). Fortunately, it didn't take as long as I thought it would. But I wanted to be on the safe side. I haven't read up the 200 or so posts concerning the MV league that were made since my departure. So I will simplay ask the questions that are relevant: 1. Am I still on team D? Is there a password for team D for any private team forum? 2. If I am still on a team: Does my captain still want me to submit a game

I'd like to report a small bug (TA second version of the beta): The buildings that are build on planets can be seen in a chart in the colony manager. If I try to change the buildings there, or if I delete a building on the planet and go back there - I get the wrong building information displayed. The bug is so obvious I don't think a save game is needed to reproduce it.

fine. it seems to work now. glad I don't have to grieve him about that...

I was supposed to install this for "thebutterfly" who left very clear (fanatic?) instructions to me before he left. But I get an error message.
