The past 4 octals of days has seen the most conquest by our warriors in the history of the Empire!  We also surpass every other empire by all overall measures...

Our empire is swiftly approaching a volume of 30 million light years!

no worries KP. i'll be doing the standard 6 scores of 4d6 dropping the lowest roll each time for abilities, plus one floating re-roll (you can make the substitution after seeing the result of the roll). only significant house rule planned as of yet will be the rules for reducing level adjustments outlined starting on page 18 of Unearthed Arcana. if you draw on rules from other supplimental rule books, let me know (mostly so i can be sure to review the rules myself).

Thanks Dys...I didnt do anything with my character today.  When I'm sick, creative thinking seems to be severely impeded, blech.

Good to see someone proper back in 1st place too. I had thought about going after it again just to dispose of the trash, then i saw you were already on your way. Good enough for me.

Thanks, I have been playing 1 ZYW  with DevilCat each day, slowly creeping up, and watching the exile depreciate down.   I think I was right about him, in that soon after he lost the ability to interact with people here, he moved-on.  I wish people had joined me in ignoring him sooner!

KP, it was actually a full ban from what i have understood. I don't recall where Kryo mentioned it but he said that H lost his ability to even submit games, so he coped the the full ban like Wheel and ES.

Can't say i'm sorry to hear that.

Any Kzin warriors with a spare character slot? The Klingon Empire, it's a joint effort with KP and myself at the moment are looking for Klingon themed characters.

It sure would be cool for the Klingons to be #3 on the MV.

I see that he has a number of characters that submitted games as recently as 10/22.  I think that would have been after a ban would have been effected, so I dont know what they actually did to his 4 fake accounts.  Maybe he created fake accounts after the ban, thus circumventing it.

Harbone got an IP ban, so there is nothing to worry about, however his sister Charley B formed her own mepire filled with Harbone's other characters.

Klingons are already up to 13th mate. And don't worry, we'll get the Geckodons up there as well.

I'll try and find the thread and exactly what Kryo said, but his full ban was put into effect after his banning from the forums, he was able to play for a while but then i...assume..Brad stepped in???

Again, thats my assumption. i'm not sure exactly what happened, but IIRC it was not by Kryo's hand though either.

Did anyone here about what's happening to EA? There getting a lawsuit cause of the hidden DRM that was included in Spore and is losing 500 employes. I hope that in the near future EA won't be able to continue  it's ownership of Maxis and then hopfully Stardock can buy Maxis so that Will Wright can create games without EA breathing down his back.

I suppose I can convert Fluffie the Pink Bunnie to Klingon. I'll work on a new name and icon.

What's the story behind the EvilStormbringer issue?  That was from before I was on the forums.

Just a day and a half til the US election, which I have been pretty mental about lately.  I cant wait for it to be over!  It's likely the candidate I support (Obama) is going to win, but still its nerve-wracking.   To all you USA citizens out there, dont forget to vote, no matter who you are voting for.    I voted last Thursday, being in one of the states that has early voting.

Speaking of which...

Remember how I was going to do a campaign run with each and every candidate in TPM08?

I've discovered Carter is pretty damn useless.  Ugh.  I think he's even worse than Grant (the starter on the other side).  I'm having some difficulty beating Reagan with my normal strategies, although in the election previous against whoever that was, I won ALASKA.  I won ALASKA as a Democrat.  Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit.

But really I need more time for this.  30 candidates * 6 races per campaign * a bare minimum of a half hour perhaps as much as two hours a piece and we're talking anywhere from 90 to 360 hours, which even on the low end is more than one can be expected to devote in a week.

Hah!   I'll vote a couple times for you Neilo.

SoleSoul, there was a couple games I played (the early campaign games) where I won every single state.  I cant remember if that was as a Democrat of Republican though.

I've won every state when making an effort to, but Alaska just fell into my lap.  I wound up building an HQ there so as to not waste stamina when I went there to pick up a political opportunity, and my opponent never touched it, so my awareness was virtually maxed out while theirs was <30%.

I'm beginning to think I might be better off playing Carter vs. Reagan without maxing out my stamina.  10 weeks is a long time to be doing almost nothing.  His mediocre fundraising ability isn't helping me any, either.  Lost this last game with 250 electoral votes...and you'll never believe the states I lost.  Vermont, New Hampshire, Michigan, Wisconsin, Nevada, New Mexico, Connecticut, Rhode Island...I was spread too thin.

I'm almost thinking I may have forgotten how to play this game. 

EDIT: Crushed Reagan with a slightly different playstyle-landslided him with Carter.  No longer as concerned about the next three guys-it appears I've gotten my groove back, so to speak.  While I did lose Nevada this time, again, I did so while winning, among other things, Alaska, Utah, Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana, Kentucky, West Virginia, Indiana, Ohio, etc.  362 to 176.

Also managed to do the above while "wasting" the first 10 weeks maxing my stamina. 

Seriously?  UTAH?  Seriously?  20 D, 24 I, 56 R, and I win it?
