Hmmm.... the Breen got some pretty sweet real estate, a Huge Methane Ice world all to myself . It had a rock\none moon and was the only one in the system but I can explore quickly when I got 16 billion workers turning out colony ships every other turn

Ahhh the pleasures of being a newbie game host.

Everyone gets the same starting planets. One Huge Oxygen Atmosphere Rock world with a Tiny Rock moon. This way every has an equal start. A challenge to be sure, but one that assures an equal start. I will never again start on a GD moon or get stuck in a system next to 5 asteroid systems and no growth potential. Never again!

You are all most excellent players and I would hope that you would understand this. BUT, if you all want, We can have other planets in our systems. I can regenerate the map tis no problem as long as everyone knows that what they get is what they get.

The game will switch the Oxygen atmosphere to your races upon generating the game. The problem is, if you have a none atmosphere race, the game might give you a nice little irradated planet. NOT GOOD. So if you have a none atmosphere breathing race, please email me so I can be sure to give you a good starting planet. (Methan tiny will work just fine for you! )

Everyone has an equal starting and have equal area of expansion throught the galaxy. That is, it should be a few turns before you bump into any one else.

Since a restart is in order, I have asked Geo if he could reset the game so I can upload a new game file.

Also, Fyron has discovered some errors in the 2.2 Version of his delux mod, and we will be using 2.3 instead. Sorry about this, but tis better this way.

Like I said, what fun it is to play with a newbie host.

New Game turn upload using FQM D 2.4 (In about 20 minutes. I will send out a game message when it has completed uploading. Time now is 3:05 Pacific)

Players now have more planets in their systems, but all players start with the same planet type. Any problems, please let me know.

Again welcome to the game, and enjoy.

I'm pretty happy we are restarting since my homeworld was the lone planet in an asteroid system. I've never seen this before. Anyone else ?

A Tesco Start.....

Do not use Huge planets as HWs! That is most certainly a bad idea, and has unintended side effects in FQM Deluxe.

One quick question
Quote:
You can submit your turn by replying to this e-mail (do NOT change
the subject!) and attaching your turn (using MIME).
What does it mean to "Attaching your turn (using MIME)? What's MIME?(forgive the n00blar )

MIME is an email protocal. It has nothing to do with SE4.

Ok, the third time has got to be the charm.

Fixed the INTEL issue, now have no intel
Starting worlds are now Large rather than Huge.
Game should start on correct date
ALL players should now start with Large HW's and not on fricking moons. (insert 4 letter sware word) Map Editor.

God I forgot how much fun it was to run a game. Sorry guys, but this was the best option to keep the game as intended. If a player dropped, the AI would not understand that it was not to use the Intel and it would use it.
