Hullo everyone, I just scored my personal best, at 1,050,350 using my Dagda character that I placed in the Twilight Pub. This was my first major game I played using something other than unmodified Drath...and I've learned a few things. Just a short while ago I couldn't see how I could do any better than the Drath, so my interest in tinkering with all aspects of TA has already paid off....the bonus was that this game was more interesting and more fun because of fresh game aspects. I'll tr
I loved that irish guy in the movie! That was a classic scene. AC you have to go read Snark's joke on the Twilight Pub forum.....it's a perfect fit for that scene, lol.
That's a good question...best way to determine the answer is to act as if you are starting a new Korx game and when you get to the opponenet screen click the edit button for the Korath, go to the abilities tab, and see what it says....
Very impressive KP! Excellent work, and your kittens will be proud. That is better than my best score by about 10k! I'll have to see if I can leapfrog you again with my current game... [e digicons]:D[/e]
Tuesday's Tip of the Day Customizing your race portraits and planet logos. Would you rather have a scaly lizard or Miss April 2007 represent your empire? Tired of the same planet icons after months of playing? Learn how to make them look like whatever you desire......like orange cupcakes or bags of money! http://snarceanempire.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=tidbtz&action=di
Welcome aboard Random! I'm going to start a baseline Terran TA Game and make notes as I go along. From there I am going to play the other races and compare/contrast the differing techs and abilities to the baseline. Wish me luck guys, this may take awhile!
Well, I have learned something about TA all on my lonesome. I started a new game this weekend and was playing a Krynn Superbreeder and I decided to go "evil" for my first time. I got the Mind Control Center and all of the planets had flipped to me by the 18 month mark. And that is where my game ended because the Krynn do not get the re-education center. Therefore every planet owned by a major race flipped to me. Since minor races don't flip, I was hoping that by keeping one minor race al

Sorry Cap'n...is there a way to tell how many games an empire has posted in a certain time frame? I meant, regards the lack of response to the rally cry, that I made a post here last week asking if there were any Gerontocrats awake and would they like to sally forth in a grand charge. GW was the only one who responded until your post. Please understand I like the Gerontocracy! I'm just trying to discover who is active within it. If there is a way to determine what games are being posted
Well this is kind of cool! How many other quasi-Scots do we have floating around out there? Snark, where's your crest? Everyone who brings their clan crest into the Pub gets three free draws or one single malt on the house! Motti & Dys you also get an extra round for volunteering them. I think I have you all beat though....my clan crest is tattooed on my right shoulder, lol. Tomorrow I will put up some TA hints...just so we don't get too side-tracked on the Scots stuff and
Hey GW, there doesn't seem to be a response to the rally cry. [e digicons]:pout:[/e] I'd stay and fight, but as much as I hate to say it, it looks like the gerontocrats have slipped quietly away. If it's just you, and half of me, that's not much of an empire. Snark is setting up a new Twilight of the Arnor empire and I am going to go over there. I'd sincerely like to invite you to come along. I know you don't want to give up on the gerontocrats, and I don't either, but it sure looks l
I dinnae ken you were a Scots laddie! Welcome to the best club in the world Dys! (having a Scots heritage I mean, not so much the Twilight Pub). Welcome aboard! <a href="http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/45/Clan_member_crest_badge_-_Clan_Lindsay.svg/472px-Clan_member_crest_badge_-_Clan_Lindsay.svg.png&imgrefurl=http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Clan_member_crest_badge_-_Clan_Lindsay.svg&usg=__NBIj4XC4pCUCKqmxe86mS
Welcome gentlemen, to the Twilight Pub! Pull up a chair next to the cozy fire while we draw you a nice stout beer and regale you with stories if intergalactic derring-do. Snark has asked me to explain, in English, what this new empire is about, and, just as importantly, what it is not about. This new empire is born of two ideas, both conspicuously absent from the Metaverse until now. The first is the need for an empire that focuses solely on Twilight of the Arnor and the interesting c
Thanks Cypher! I hope you had an excellent time on Spring break. I've gotten two national championships out of the Jayhawks in my time and this is a rebuilding year for them so I can be philosophical about the loss.
Hi Jack, nice to see you! Right now I'm watching Oklahoma just put a black and blue beating on Syracuse. The Big 12 is playing some superlative games, and I hope my Jayhawks are even more impressive than the other teams. I don't know if giving me karma will help them, but it sure was a nice thought!
Well Saint Mina, I am already in the Gerontocracy and if I can stir up some signs of life here I'd like to organize a defiant charge of the old farts. If no one answers the call though, I'll consider joining your empire. There's just one thing...I don't know whom I am talking to when you post and it makes me uncomfortable. Are you a young Indonesian girl, an Indonesian teacher/mother, or a man from Warsaw, Missouri? Or do all of you post randomly? Before I place my sword at someone' service I
Hallelujah and praise be! GW, nice to hear from you even if you are feeling snarky! I shall not take umbrage, only delight in hearing from you once more (Snark is a fine fellow indeed once you get to know him, even if he is a Kzinti.) Please see my new post in the Gerontocracy thread. I felt quite lonely there; in fact what I felt was all alone as opposed to merely lonely. Seeking convivial company I wandered off the porch and found these TOE fellows. I would be absolutely delighted, nay, I w
Gentlemen, GW Swicord has remonstrated with me for being AWOL from the Gerontocracy and lending my sword to the big TOE. Hah, I say! I thought perhpas I was alone in this empire with nary a post for a month and a half. In boredom I wandered off the porch, using my sword cane for support, in search of some furballs to taunt. And Hallelujah, I found a whole nest of the critters infesting our back forty. Now tarnation, who wants to get up off their rockers and help me set out some Kzinti
All games affect the MV more than you think. The way the MV works is that scores age and depreciate over time...so a mediocre game played today might have more of an impact than a superlative game from six months ago. However, the true fun of the MV is the collective bantering between all the players there and the incredible tips and strategies you will learn. Before I joined the MV I was averaging 36,000 points a game. Now I regularly score over one million. You'll learn a lot in the MV, but
Thanks SS. I was having a Hunter S. Thompson fear and loathing moment imagining the team back at SD as large malovent lizards, with strings of drool hanging from their sneering snouts as they grouped together, chortling with glee, thinking of new ways to torment me.........whoa. They kind of looked like really big Krynn actually.....thanks for bringing me back to this nice, safe and ...... real .... world.
