Excellent!!

Did you do any balancing on atmosphere/gas/ice/rock combo's?
Or did you just take what FQM generated?

[Paul1980au]

You know that balancing of planet types is important - i would also like to see more balancing of mineral, organic and radioactives to. As they can influence gameplay - set em low and encourage condintions and values upgrades in the later game or set em high to encourage big fleets, rapid building expansion and up front attacks and in youre face tactics from the start - lowering them restricts early game ship numbers and encourages a more prolonged reserach and fleet buildup.

Hah! Big Kilrah is watching you! I surely see the new warp lanes recently appearing within your empire...
Just because my humble empire has managed to have a slightly higher resource income than your empire doesn't mean that I'm doing better than you - remember, I'm a newbie

Question: Regarding this rule..

5. Absolutely no e-mail diplomacy prior to in-game contact. You may mail each other on all other issues but not concerning in-game events and strategies prior to in-game contact.

How are you going to be able to enforce this? I mean, I don't plan on engaging in e-mail exchanges with the other players. (And if you have a way of monitoring my e-mails then I would apreciate you telling me how, and should I now worry about my e-mail being monitored by you?)

It just seems wierd how this rule seems to imply that you can monitor e-mails.

Cheers!
