Baal, you're right, you surpassed me and am now number 1. You got some impressive resource production going on. Have you met Phoenix yet in the game? I wonder if he could be of any help to me Because in 6-8 turns as you begin expanding westwards you'll run into me.

I don't mind Newbie 2 slowing down a bit; it looks like it's starting to become more of a thinking game now what with the trading and negotiating that's starting to pick up.
Not that those 15-turn evenings weren't fun, of course. I just worry that if I take time to think I'll be holding everyone else back.
I don't know if I am going to expand that way. There may not be a whole lot of planets I would like to have. I really only go for breathable planets.
I have met Phoenix. We talked for a bit, setting up some borders. We haven't had any recent communications. I'm afraid he might be building a large armada to attack me with. I hope that I am ready for his onslaught. Maybe I should sign a treaty with him...
EDIT: By the way, in one hour from this post I'm off to work for 8 hours. Just a heads up for ya guys.

Actually, the negotiations in Newbie 2 are almost going TOO fast By the time a message explaining my situation is recived, another message proposing something ELSE is sent.
Meanwhile my minefields have 30mT worth of kills :-)
