Reply to No play list of AFKers in Sins Multiplayer Sins Forums

AKAIK (based on my observation etc...), a person loses when they can no longer colonise or produce a colony ship (i.e. no planets and no colony frig/cap left). The thing with MP is that an AI will take over is someone drops/quits (but not surrenders) and the game will end when the other players lose as well (i.e. team loses). HOWEVER If an AI starts the game in a slot, then it is considered a normal player and must be defeated the same as anyone else. Hence the game wi

[quote]and some accuse me of smurfing sunny.damn it.who's the bastard doing it?wtf?[/quote] I don't think you were accused of that - I believe the accusation was that you were accused of smurfing with a logon that was identical to sunny's BIA logon except for a dash being different...

Reply to BIA's Reborn Sore Loser in Sins Multiplayer Sins Forums

Who in BIA has been doing the whining? Also there is a difference between a newbie who is new and wants to learn and will do as advised vs one who just won't listen and think they know better. Second one is guaranteed to get negative comments. The first will earn the resepect of BIA for trying, improving and sticking it out...

Reply to good sql reference? in Personal Computing Sins Forums

Foreign Keys are uses to ensure you don't add data to a table that doesn't link to a parent table (this would create orphan records).

Reply to Need a clan/group ish in Sins Clans Sins Forums

Correct - Lando talking to the group about Cloud City as they trevel to dinner with Vader. I just thought it was a good take off of the comment about being a small clan (which can be used instead of guild in some circumstances - probably saying too much now :D).

Reply to WTF FLEET SIZE in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Little tip to the OP - how about just asking your question rather then slagging off the game and demanding your money back and calling it a POS. A game doesn't win this many awards without ticking those basic functionality boxes - so make sure the issue is not a PEBCAK error... One final thing to note - hard and unfair get extra resources so can have a larger fleet then you as they can afford it...
