Twin Galaxies Championship Scores

WarChild · #1 March 5th, 2001, 02:49 AM

hey folks...well, i've just finished my entry to the Twin Galaxies World Championship and i must admit that i'm curious how i rank in the grand scheme of things yet too impatient to wait the several weeks for the official results! perhaps we can all share our scores....

i finished with 129.7 million points

my friend and fellow poster, terrik_blackend, kicked my butt with a score of 207.4 million points!

how'd everyone else do?

278.7 million for me. Glad to see some more reasonable scores. Things have been pretty quiet over at TG lately.

I'm not seeing either of the scores you mentioned in the unofficial list. Have you two not submitted your scores yet? Right now there's another score of 141.6M showing, but nothing else competitive.

Well, I hadn't noticed before, but the contest was cancelled. From the wording of the annoucement, I'm guessing geo will win top honors.

Major disappointment.

Drake, where did you hear that?

It would explain the lack of info coming from Nyx lately.

I don't think you could declare me the winner. I know there were at least three scores submitted that were higher than my current score.

I am working on another entry but I don't think I am going to have it done by wed. I am pretty sure it will be less than 278 mil anyway so it won't matter either way. It might be good for second or third place.

It's right off their main web site - I don't know when it went up, I don't usually pay attention to all that stuff, and click on the SEIV section right away. They just say the prize will go to the winners as it stands.....

Oh, I found it.

That kind of sucks. I guess it's expected considering the lack of response they have been getting.

I wonder if it's just a misprint but it says Space Empires 2.

I hope Nyx didn't get canned. Maybe thats why he hasn't verified any more scores lately.
