Hello all, I feel the need to share my misery with the people of this board... (misery loves company

)
In one of my pbw games I've spent nearly two years exploring. In those two years I've managed to find 2 colonizeable planets (both in my home system), 5 planetless systems, 1 nebula, 1 black hole, encountered 2 sadistic neighbors who take pleasure in shooting my (unarmed!) ships, and my colony ships are running out of fuel. Two more systems left to explore -one of which I'm certain is either claimed or inhabited by my neighbor.
note: galaxy is not set ancient
Anyone else care to share their misery?
