Oh, how about just plain forgetting the rules of the game? Like in The Hunt, where you're dead if you lose your homeworld, and I forget to build any defenses on it? Or put ships over it? Or build any satellites? Here you go, partner, have a free rest of the empire! Of course, I saw it coming, but I still forgot the rules and decided to retrofit my fleet "so I could thrash his homeworld after he got mine." I was somewhat disappointed with the results. I felt every bit the doofus I was.

ROFLOL... so THAT'S why you lost so quickly... I just figured the enterprising opponent said, "Hey, who cares if someone else gets one point ahead when I have an empire twice the size of everyone else's!"

That was one of my favorite all time PBW moments.

Yeah, it was YOU!
