Funny I was in 0 with almost 6 million energy...damn powerful little escape pod.

Sucks they don't give ya 2500 turns after you punch out from your ship in the pod...

Also on a side note...funny you left my beacon up.

Note to self-Use the fucking bank you twit.

Also was I on the planet when you attacked or what? Anyway I guess I will sit in the corner and mope about building angst or something until I THINK I can wonder about.

* shovels more fighters and torps onto Mightion Prime; the last beacon; the last line of defense - for even in the brightest day, we must prepare for the darkest hour.

And how did you get past the 30mil energy?

Delphi Aegis was naked while typing this:
Just out of morbid curiosity, how many fighters and torps would it have taken for you to stay away from my planets? 1 mil? 2 mil? With my computer/torp launchers up that high, I could have tripled the number on the planets, but I didnt want to lose efficiency on making those runs.

And how did you get past the 30mil energy?

---

Uh...your planets only have the same shields, beams and torpedo launchers you do.

And it wouldn't have taken more than what, 1.6 million fighters to get Khyron to stay away? But you'd have fallen to Fate anyway once we got around to you, so it doesn't really matter.

I've got an average tech level of 21.00, 140 billion credits, 1.3 billion colonists across my planets and about 55m/65m fighters/torpedoes spread over my planets and ship.

My score is around 7653 and stuck. It dropped to there from 120k like a week ago in a matter of two days.

You never want a Dark Elf saying "Please Elaborate" to you.

in other news, all your point score are belong to Neriak, Giantt.

His score is actually -790,781

Yes, negative 790,781.

There appears to be a very large anomoly in the database that I'm currently looking into. A few accounts have extremely large loans on file with the IGB, which are a negative influence on your score. (without those loans, the score would be 427,596)

Oopsie.

To tell you the truth, I loaned like 28 million way back on day 1, and never could pay it back without losing a fuckton of points. Eventually I forgot about it and well...here we are.

Holy shit. Even if there was any point to being in the top of the rankings, I wouldn't ever be able to pay that off. That's like 6 times what I have now.

MadCat is the first account I made which you can actually delete; Xirian has an outstanding debt of below 100 mill credits now

Or at least.. I think.. damn interest gets annoying

But..but I got blown up. I'm shrapnel from my own stupidity of course, but damn interest sucks, I only borrowed like 3000 or so.

Wonder how big the debt will get.

Can't decide what to do with them.

This game needs a colonist shuttling-service. Transferring colonists to new planets to keep from hitting 100 million is annoying. Trade routes work, but I'm hitting the limit, and I'll hate to remake them when I want to offload some planets... :/

I only have one "Colonist" traderoute. I just edit it whenever I need to. Takes maybe what, 15-20 seconds?

I have 12 planets at 90-100mil (depending on if I just shuttled or not) and 30 at 20mil. Your point?

In other news, I just realized I forgot to put bases on one of my sectors to keep people from making defenses there. Too bad they sucked, and so did their planet.

it's not like they stop producing stuff.

Well, that's the limit, and supposedly growth stops afterwards.

You can still just make a bunch of trade runs and make money faster than your planets.
