Oh god I am way behind. I won't even say how many I have...

So tell me, what is the secret to starting off well?

A Mineral Scanner on all 10 Homeworlds + System Mineral Scanners bags about 750 K Mins on HW's alone.
You must have done some colonizing by now ?

Colonizing, what is that? I didn't know we were going to play that way... But seriously, I am closing in on 80 colonies at this point. I guess waiting for space yards to complete has kept my production down early.

I believe I have System Mineral Scanners built already but I don't know about individual scanners on the home planets yet. Will check next turn.

Only 80 colonies? I thought I was slacking when I picked up all 182 a few turns ago. I've finally reached the point where I can keep all queues unpaused (including my 100+ orbital space yards). The Spoo Empire Resource ConVersion Corporation must love me.

Alas, it seems I'm slacking in production with only 1.1M minerals. I suppose I shouldn't have built the atmospheric modification plants first. Oh well, next time.

Yeah, that is why I said I am doing badly in this game and yet still having fun. I am in Last place.

I have all my planets unpaused as well but obviously that is not very many. Production is really starting to pick up now and I will catch up sometime. I hope. (We need more smilies!)

Err... I didin't think that I would have started well because I made some mistakes early game. But mostly my strategy is to build space yard, athosphere modification plant and monoliths after that.

Odd, that is my strategy as well. Wonder why you empire does it so much better.

Perhaps it is your statues you are building.
