Smokin' hot score Random! Veyr good job, especially with no econ event!

My bad dreams about college 20 years later aren't about being nude or missing finals....I dream that I get to the end of the semester and only then realized I was signed up for several classes I didn't know about....and now it is finals time. Arrgghhh. Why do we still dream about finals so many years after the fact, lol?

Congratulatons to the Kzinti Empire! 40 million light years is a spectacular accomplishment! Kudos to the brave warriors of the Kzinti Empire and their valiant leader, the inestimable Kzinti Patriarch. All Kzinti should now feel safe, well-fed and snug in the warm afternoon of their magnificent accomplishments, and adopt an air of smug complacency, for who could threaten such an accomplishment? Look at that patch of golden sunlight on that snuggly cushion by the window sill.

That's sad. The Tyranny salutes the departing Kzinti warrior and wishes him much happiness and dreams of abundant prey species in the very near future.

Bon Motti! Nice to see things have let up enough so you can pund out another monster score [e digicons]:beer:[/e]

LMAO! Owners are supposed to look like their pets!

@Crushbone Bob: Inisfree? Awesome name, automatically deserving of several free rounds at the Twilight Pub, courtesy of your oddball Scots proprietors! [e digicons]:beer:[/e] [e digicons]:beer:[/e] [e digicons]:beer:[/e]

Second that.

Dys, your comments are always insightful and right on target. Jack, you are a credit to your prey species! We have some very intelligent, and very likeable people on these forums. Some of us are Tyrants, some of us are Kzinti, and some of us are Gerontocrats. The Metaverse, and these forums, wouldn't be as fun as they are without such wonderful people representing all the various empires. The Metaverse also wouldn't be nearly as much fun if there weren't competing empires. You simply

Another great score Snark! How quickly are you actually churning these out now? I don't think everyone understands you have to be the "points per minute" champion in the MV, in addition to the reigning king of the MV. Stellar work, indeed! (Pun intended, lol) @Neilo: Thanks! That explains it.

Here's a mild question for everyone: while I am extremly happy for Snark that he has snagged the gold medal from me ('cause I'm just going to play leap-frog with him and swap it back and forth, lol; Helga says we have to share it on alternating weeks) aren't we supposed to get a former first place medal when that happens? I have two characters who should have them but they are not showing up. Not a big deal, but I thought I would ask.

GW, go ahead and taunt me, I can laugh at myself along with the best of them! The MV has been pretty dead, so some good-natured taunting would be welcome. [e digicons]:grin:[/e]

Great job Snark on the gold!!! Meet you for beers at the pub and this time they're are on me! [e digicons]:beer:[/e] [e digicons]:beer:[/e] [e digicons]:beer:[/e] [e digicons]:beer:[/e] [e digicons]:beer:[/e]

Well, after the enforced break from GalCiv that was thrust upon us, I have had a little difficulty getting back into the game, but I did just finish this one:

Great job Snark! (but, *ahem*, you're not fooling anyone.....you could score a million any time you wish too, you just prefer that speedy one or two day game!!)

It's not really unfair Seth, it just makes our ultimate victory that much sweeter. [e digicons]|-)[/e]

Here's what I've been sitting on....

Gentlemen, General Jeb has his first score to report to the ToE. Another will be posted in a just a few secs....

Thank you Pat & Kryo!! You've both earned all the free man-flowers (beer) you can swill in the Twilight Pub!

Awesome score DL! Man, you didn't just stroll into the millionaire's club, you burst through the front door in a sherman tank! Clearing one million with an excess 126,250 points is very impressive. Good show!

I went fishing. It was a beautiful day here. Didn't catch anything but had a lovely day anyway.

Ach, ye may well be right, GW. We're known for grumbling, being tight with our money, and being strong engineers. The latter being my primary source of frustration right now. Kryo is saying that the MV only works on one server...and although back-ups of the hard drive weren't mentioned, they're either not done or won't fix the problem. That's an all your eggs in one very fragile basket situation and the gods always come along and smack you around for that type of thing. Computers fail, hard d

@Kryo - I'm sorry but I feel compelled to ask SD a few tough questions. I'd sincerely like you to answer these questions in a forthright and honest manner. 1. Did SD not have a back-up server for the MV? 2. Did SD back-up the MV server every night? 3. Did SD have a disaster recovery plan? Our problem is the same as the Demigod folks Kryo; we can't play either. There is no way to start an MV game right now. If it was just a matter of posting score

Oh, I hope not. My wife would force me to join!

Metaverse is down Ashes drift in leaden sky Winter in my heart While we wait, the Twilight Pub is sponsoring a Haiku competition to express our feelings on the loss of the MV, hopefully thereby dealing with our darker emotions in a positive way. Post your best and most anguished haiku's here. +1 karma for those submitting a haiku.....+3 for th
