44. You forget to put anything into your research queue on the first turn, throwing away 100k of research points (ahh, who needs 'em). (Oops, I did this one!!)

50. Your whole objective in life is to conquer your own rebelling worlds (which you cause to rebel repeatedly by stupid management).

51. You constantly receive Messages from the AI empires offering to GIVE YOU some troops just to stop the rebelling worlds! And your dumb enough to accept!

52. You never build anything larger then an escort even when you have Super Monitors available because you just love the word Escort.

53. You spend hours on end trying to figure out why those tiny worthless ships are CALLED escorts when there is nothing in the game to escort.

54. You drop plague bombs on your own world to see what color your citizens will turn before they croak.

Absolute genus! This one is damn funny.

55. You dedicate your planet in memory of Gohmer Pile (sp)
56. All of your ships master computers are programed by Microsoft.
57. Your ships master compute is a 386.
58. The Last time you took an IQ test your score was negative 100.
59. You kill off all of your population over the number 1000 because you cannot count any higher.
60. If you accidently shot yourself each time you clean your bLaster.
61. You were the reason they put warning lables on Light Sabers.
62. If Jar Jar Binks is considered a genius by your standards.
63. If you repeatedly order your ships to crash into each other because you think the sound they make is funny.
64. If your code of arms is a picture of Elmer Fud. (sp)
65. If you have Banned PBS broadcasting from your worlds because they killed off Elmo.

You would be surprised. Never mock the almighty Escort of Doom. Frigates might be preferred from time to time, but the point stands; these little ships can be deadly if you are caught unaware.

81: You somehow manage to research Resource Converters, and put them on Repeat orders. Several months later, you are still wondering about what happened to your collapsing economy (do not worry though; you aren't the only one, as this mistake is probably one of the most common).

82: You have set your neighbouring system(s) as "Systems to avoid", and ticked the "Ships should not travel through restricted systems" option. The same goes for minefiels.

83: You have confused the "Demand surrender" option and "Surrender", and/or the "I want to be subjugated!" and "I want to subjugate you!".

84: You have been researching Tachyon Sensors and Organic gathering (from level IV to IX). In a high-cost research game.

OK. Funny true story: remember the NGC4 game? Well...in order to save my life I offered Roanon (Primeval) my subjugation. Unfortunately for him I offered the "you become subjugated to me treaty." If it had been intentional it would have been a great little tactic becuase, suddenly, the most powerful empire in the game was my subject. Talk about a boost to my struggling economy. I loved it. Of course, had to scrap the treaty the next turn...but it was quite a hoot.
