What worries me is that I might lose population. That is my main concern, keeping my race alive and well. And all those ships just popped out of no where.

I suppose that I should be a tad more worried about meeting Dragonlord. That guy has quite an economic backbone.

Me, I just find it pathetic that my first losses were not from humans, but from a pair of ships from those blue idiots. Embarassing.

Oh well, they gave my race something to vent on.

Thus far, I'm enjoying my game - but a little disappointed at the lack of good habitable planets in my region. Perhaps my unique location makes up for it though.

WARNING: I'm off to work for 7-8 hours so I would not recommend staying by the computer waiting for me to send in my turn.

Hey Spoogy, you should trade some ships for an alien transport that is parked around their homeworld. The computer always loads up the transports with population when they are around the homeworld. That could help you out if you have colonized a lot of Carbon Dioxide planets.

I hope Baal can put in a few turns later tonight, I am getting bored. Finally made first contact with a human player Last turn, and curious to see what kind of relationship this will turn into.

Sorry for the delay. I work that long night shift, so I pretty much inactive between 6pm EST to 2 pm EST the next day. But I'll always try to get as many turns in as I can during the 4 hours I'm home.

I'm in Canada, so no independence holiday for me - we just had ours on Sunday. We should be able to do lots of turns again this saturday...

Delay is NP.. the other game's been cranking out the turns today, don't think I could have handled both.

You work Mon-Fri?
