"My nasty, cheating, horribly smelly opponett", were you playing against a Gnu or a Moose ????

Fyron, yep, just thought a nice chat room here on the forum would be neat, that way we can talk about the game and problems, ideas, ect, without having to take up space on the forum threads, and you could talk mono to mono with everyone about the game. The problem with one of the all around chat rooms is your going to have some individuals of little brain capacity, trying to get cute or trying to steer up trouble which in turn would ruin the idea. I don't know what everyone else's feelings are on having our own SE4 Forum Chat room, Maybe take a poll ????? But I'm game, it would be nice to discuss the game etc in chat.
oh well....

You'd be surprised what you can do with those CTW cruisers

Twixle the 4th, was looking over his latest reports concerning the realighnment of yard work on the new expanded scout ships. Hmm, the report shows that they should have the problem with the computer systems fixed and on line within another week or so. most excellent, Once again our illustrious Imperial Navy shall be endeavoring to once again ply the universe upon our quest and locating new colonies to procreat our race.... Most Invigorating.....

to be continued in the story thread

be careful, be very very careful
look to the sky
its "THEM"

A request for a non bash player..... Possibly k-m or geo....

Can you generate the map for me.

Large cluster,normal ( cannot remeber what that one is called I do know it is not ancient) ( did we ever decide on the number of systems (was it 255)??
Set the starting points at 1 per cluster. Evenly layed out.
3 planet start with the max on resources.
Normal amount of warp points and warp points can be anywhere in the system.
Call it Bashedspace.

That way i do not know what the map looks like. And all the players have equal knowledge.

Mac we should play some chess some time.

Tesco, your on in regards to chess, I used to collect Chess sets, have some real nice ones, but I'll be rusty, havn't played in yrs..... so be easy on me aahhh a good game of chess, some pizza, ice cold brewskis, .ahahhh havn't done that in looonnnggg time. looking foreward to it. By the way, they do have pizza up north don't they??????

255 planets, also now that I saw the other thread, shall we be allowed email outside of the game??? My vote is, once you meet in the game, then it should be allowable, since we are Roleplaying, the banter could be quite long among us players and the current screen doesn't have enought space, you know how long winded the Growltigga can be

for every action there is an equal and opposite government program......

We don't get much snow here. Go look at a map some time

China, Russia, Canada.

So, if you guys want to join the SE4 chat channel on IRC, follow these instructions:
1) Download an IRC client program (such as Trillian from http://www.trillian.cc which is what I use).
2) You need to connect to any random gamesnet.net server, and join the channel #SE4 (type "/join #SE4").

If you want to use Trillian, then continue reading this. If not, then you suck. Seriously though, I'd have to figure it out, and it would be easier if you use Trillian (which, incidentally, can connect to MSN IM, AIM/AOL, ICQ and Yahoo! all in one ad-free program).
3) Install Trillian wherever you would like. When installing it, it asks you for your user info for all of the aforementioned chat networks. If you have them, you can enter them in. Otherwise, just hit next.
4) Once installed, look in the main Buddy window (the big one that opens to the right automatically). Locate the row of 5 icons. Clicking on each of these will bring up a list of options for each chat network. Locate the IRC button and click on it. Select Connection Manager.
5) In the bottom left portion of the Connection Manager window, there is a large box entitled Internet Chat Relay (which is what IRC stands for, btw). It contains a scroll list of various servers. Find Gamesnet and click on it.
5a) Select a Random server. Either USEast or USWest will do.
6) Now look in the bottom right, where there is another boxed area. It has 3 tabs. The left and default tab is Personal Information. Enter a Nickname, Alternate, Username and User information. User information can just be a copy of your nickname.
7) Click on the button that says Set nick on all servers.
8) Don't touch the following:
--a) Identd tab.
--b) The two boxes above the Personal Information box. They will be done automatically.
9) Now, click on the Connect button in the top right corner.
10) A new window will pop up, signifying that you are connected to the Gamesnet server network. In the chat box, type in: /join #SE4
11) See ya there!

Sorry to intrude with a G Bash game question, but I thought the 'friendly' atmosphere of the cantina is the right place to jab about House Rules for Galactic Bash. Uuuhhh... Are there any rules we want?

<Please don't bother noticing me stepping on my fuzzy bunnies as I walk to get several drinks, Guiness, and several pizzas for all here "Anyody like tuna and black olive pizza? Chicken, or Pepperioni?". No implications intended, honest, it's just comfortable for the toes to do.>

I would miss being able to read old Posts if we went to a chat channel. One of the joys of the forum is knowing you don't miss out on anything even if your not right there at the moment.
