Things were looking good for the rest of the players....but then disaster struck as Asmala's connection returned. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">The basic set is made. The winner of the set, from my understanding, will get to name it, come up with a back story, or have me do it for them. But naming the set is totally up to the winner and from that point forward that SET will always be known as that Players set.

If the player does not like the texture, I can work with them to try and come up with one they do like. However, my time is limited.

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

No kidding. Tesco and everyone else involved, this has been a super-human effort.

It looks like it is going to be a great success! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Greetings.

Just in case you missed it on the Race to SE:V Tournament Forums, Tescosamoa is on vacation so I've assumed ownership of the 4 tournament games. Please send your related requests to me for the next week or so until Tesco gets back.

Thanks!

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS *DELETED*
 

Post deleted by Slynky

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

This is why I would have preferred a game without any trades, as I have misunderstood the rules. Now, due to the small scale of this galaxy and the MUST of tech and colonist exchange, this game turns into a diplomatic slaughter rather than a strategic/tactical Space Empires game.
Am I really the only one preferring to fight it out, even as a lone wolf, rather than having to write diplomatic emails untill the keyboard is smoking?

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

I would have preferred it that way as well, Roanon, but considering there was no way to stop it with a game setting, it was something that a person had to do because who wants to be the only one NOT doing it, eh? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

can we have this removed from this thread.

this message as well.

Attention ATULL players:

A warning posted in the RACE forum!

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

Um, there's really nothing here that violates any Shrapnel forum policy so there's no reason to delete anyone's Posts without their consent. Does Roanon or Slynky have any objection to removing these Posts and taking the conversation elsewhere? If not guys go ahead and edit your Posts down and I'll delete them out.

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

Well, frankly, I do have a little problem with censorship.

First, I don't seen anything wrong with Roanon's comment nor my reply. Just an opinion on a game setting/option.

As to my longer message, I posted it as an explanation of why I was withdrawing from the Tourney. It also explains I will be "gifting" my empire out to all the people I met so far in an equitable fashion. And that means ALL the people I have met so far. It also explains why I won't be in any more multiplayer games. And, frankly (again), I posted it here because not all the people go to the other forum.

So, unless I've broken a forum rule, I'd like it to stay.

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

Yeah, took me a moment to figure out how to do it myself...you have to click on "Edit" then at the bottom, there is a delete option.

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

Tesco, since autoturns are off right now on the server the Tudran game is 2 days overdue. We are waiting on one Last player but still 2 days is a long time...Could you manually run the turn? Or is there something goin on that we don't know about?

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

done.

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

Sorry. I was looking after this game but got caught up in a matter concerning the Atull game and did not notice this turn was ready for .exe!

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

kwok that done was for the game to get a kick... please do not kick it http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

I am in the Osshod game, and I need a replacement player from October 1 to an indefinite period because we are moving. I may be lucky, and might be able to get my dsl provider to hook up the internet in a couple days. I may not. However, I am betting on the worst, and the possibility of being unable to complete my turns for a week or more is quite real.

Also, if you feel that playing a couple days only without any guarantee of playing longer is cheating, I am willing to give up my empire a week early, to guarantee that you will play at least 10 or so turns.

Conditions :

1. You have some sort of instant messaging system, or IRC, or something where we can discuss strategy real time. Maybe a couple sessions will be enough for me to bring you up to speed. If you don't, we can do through e-mail, although not being able to talk in real-time is awkward.

2. You are fairly familiar with SE:V. Maybe a vet. I feel silly for asking for a vet, because I am a newbie. But I think I am doing quite well (I am in 4th or 5th place Last time I checked), and am nearing a critical stage in my plans. If ur not a vet, no sweat. Tell me what point-defense cannons are, tell me whether or not you research missiles, and tell me the most important technologies in the early game, and if you're right you'll be in lol.

3. You will play all your turns and guarantee that you can play for at least two weeks after October 1.

Also, in the end, there is a strong possibility that you will stay on as a consultant to my empire, if you feel attached to it. So message me now and get your hands on an exciting game and an exciting empire!

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

as we only still have 1 replacement player

I will play your turns

Unless some one else here stands up/

I am an experienced pbw player

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

Very cool tesco. More details to come, when I want you to take over =D

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

Tesco check your e-mail, you can take over my turns now.

Wow, NICE banner for this tourney at PBW!

Whose artwork is that?

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

David Gervais's http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

Which banner, because I did one and someone else did another, so it's a 50/50 chance it's mine. or not.

can you link to where you see the banner? I went to pbw and didn't see a banner. If you mean the pbw race 2 se5 site (forums) the banner used there is not by me.

Cheers! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

That'd be mine. Thanks! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

The banner is mostly green letters, and has 4 starships with a checkered flag background

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

Yep. I made it during the summer when I went through a little banner-phase. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

We have found a bit of information to be entertaining. It seems that four empires have formed a kill everyone but us alliance. The pladino collective have become an apendage to these four. I would suggest that all who are not part of this alliance form an anti-alliance Alliance. I would be willing to be a part of this alliance until the 4 are destroyed. Next turn I will offer partnerships to all those who are not of the 4. You may do as you will.

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

this is one of the reasons for all the random prizes... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif This way everyone has a chance to win... As well as the winners http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif ( one from each game... So remember that your not only helping yourself in these situations but also helping someone else )

Re: PBW RACE TO SEV TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS
 

I assume you're talking about the Atull game. Well, seeing as how I'm one of the empires that is a victim of the 4 empire alliance, I would be willing to join you. Or rather, I would be willing, except that I have lost nearly all of my planets, almost all of my ships, and will declare myself dead within a couple of turns. So no need to propose a partnership to the Tyrellian Imperium http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif
