Gentlemen, today is a grand day for Lieutenant Count Alejandro Montoya. Not only was today the official publication day of the "Sentient Species in Special Sauces" cookbook by yours truly (order yours now for only 29.95 BC's, intergalactic postage paid!)...... .....but I have just posted a 1,025,000 point score to the MV!!! My first million plus point game!! I must ask, is this the first over-million point total for a TA 2.02 game? Or did Magnumaniac have one already? I feel quite gid
ROTFLOL.....Seth, you are right, there is NO decent Mexican food in New Hampshire. Except at my house! [e digicons]:grin:[/e] But I only moved here five years ago from Kansas City where you get awesome Mexican food..plus we know hot to cook in KC...although Adrian is right, I bet he did have one of the best burritos in Colorado. The mile high state has some of the best Mexican you'll ever eat. The Kzinti quesadilla recipe is actually my very own chicken quesadilla recipe that is to di
Just for my Kzinti friends (the ones I haven't eaten yet): Geckodon Tartare Skin and bone one Geckodon. Remove tail meat and put through an industrial grinder. Separate into one pound handfuls. It's fairly tasty as is, but for a real delight mince one-half of a white onion and combine with tail meat, 2 tsp of worcestershire sauce, 2 tsp of dijon mustard, 2 tsp of salt, and ground pepper to taste. Mix well. Again you may eat it now,
Hello Gm00nii, If you have completed a game then you should get the option to connect to the MV and post the score at the end of the game. If you do not get this option it means you were playing in sandbox mode and the game score cannot be posted to the MV. I know this because I just lost a 470K game a few weeks back because I was in sandbox mode when I htought I was in MV mode. That hurt. Make sure you start all games from the Metaverse button in the main menu. I'm sorry, but
Hi TBAY, welcome back. If you've been gone for that long you will have missed the Twilight of the Arnor expansion, or as we say, TA. I'd encourage you to download it from Stardock and play it rather than (or in addition too) Dread Lords (DL). The TA expansion won Best Expansion of the Year at several places which is what brought the game to my attention in the first place. I liked DL a lot, but I love TA. And no, LOL, I don't work for Stardock! I've just noticed that some people are still pla
Don't worry about it Seth, I know it must have felt awesome for a moment, and I for one am impressed you owned your mistake. A beer for you! [e digicons]:beer:[/e] I don't know how my ToE brothers feel about helping out Geckodons, you do after all compete for the same prey species, just as the Kzinti, but in TA my advice is speed, speed, speed in the colony rush. I don't mean ship speed either, I mean grab planets as fast as possible and grab resources even faster. If y
(Pssst...Loupdinour, imagine if he really does think that is the highest score ever in TA. Just think how good he must feel! He must feel like he is ten feet tall and just shot up black tar heroin with a bottle of bourbon back. I thought about pointing out the grammatical mistake, but jeez, just in case he is riding that high there was no way I wanted to burst that bubble.)
Gulp!! The Kzinti are more worthy adversaries than I thought! Well done, KP. Yet now that the ToE have tasted the coveted top three rankings, however briefly, we shall not be satisfied with your leavings any longer. We have tasted your success......and it tastes like prey species to me! Gird yourself for our combined assault! BTW, I have found prey species taste even better with a nice garlic-caper-cream sauce with a glass of Riesling on the side. What do the Kzinti serve prey sp
But wait, that's not all...... Mottikhan is #2 in the Metaverse!!!! Evil Twin has knocked Kzinti Patriarch out of one of his top three slots! Go Evil twin! Go ToE!!! [e digicons]}:)[/e] (Disclosure: by number 2, I mean that his Evil Twin character is now ranked as the second highest scoring MV player, not that Mottikhan is a pile of poop free-floating across space and time)
Thank you for your kind words Jack. As with all things in life, a little humor and convivial, intelligent company, even when, or perhaps especially when, the company is an opponent, just makes it all that much more enjoyable and pleasant. A beer for you, and may your prey species taste finer than the largest women and may your scores be as you like them! [e digicons]:beer:[/e]
Speaking of well done, everyone give a Mottikhan a special ToE high-five for a 1.1 million mumbler score last night! I have commanded all my chattel laboring in my slave canyons to chant your name as they labor, and hull number 3467 of my Titan Class Wyrm Battlewagon shall be inscribed with your glorious name. Respect! [e digicons]:beer:[/e] [e digicons]:beer:[/e] [e digicons]:beer:[/e]
Master of Magic from the early 90's was tons of fun and one of my favorite 4x games. I still play it occasionally, but it can be work getting it to play on a vista machine. I haven't been able to get it to do it; I can only get it to play on my Imac running XP on bootcamp. On the plus side, you can get the game for free on the web now.
Kzinti Patriarch, thank you for your congratulations. The respect of your enemies is the greatest accomplishment a warrior can hope to achieve and it is an honor to be recognized by the metaverse's greatest warrior of all. You are a fine and noble adversary, legendary in your prowess, gracious to your foes, tactically and strategically brilliant, and the nemesis of all prey species. I hereby swear on my honor as the Hegemon of the Imperial Inquisition, that as my battleship lifts
Hunh? Is she on our side or were we just threatened in our rockers? Let's invite her up on the veranda for lemonade and see what this is all about.....Skinny you cover her with the scattergun just in case. BTW, good job GWS!
I take it back, grinding out a score can be very rewarding! Yes, it was a lot of work, but I just doubled my previous best score and darn it, I just feel good about it. I didn't break the 1M mark, but I got close enough that I think it is doable on my next game. We shall see. BTW, since I initiated this post I've learned a lot. IMO, all the extra bc's should be used to buy ships on Mitrosoft leases. Also, I got to 1.2 million bc
Wooohooooo!! I just finished my first gigantic suicidal mumbler game with a score of 930k! I guess when you play the larger universes it really helps your point total. Abundant everything helps too, but makes for a long, long game.
