My I have one star left, and suicided all of my ships, now my opponent just has to move their ships to my Star and I'm out.
Though it might be longer than 6 hours T_T

I can't seem to load up the TL game; the two free games that I'm in are working fine, but the TL one just sticks me on an endless loading screen. Any advice?

So far I'm really enjoying the game, hopefully I won't lose to quickly thanks to my not-so-fortunate starting position.

and btw, happy birthday Selkie!

screw this game. I'm already in it so I'll see it through, but screw this game. It doesn't take just 5m a day. You have to be pro-active and seek alliances. You have to stay in tuned with fleet travels, pay times, and production. It's emotionally draining and you got to set alarms to important events so you can attend to them. This is not a casual game. I feel like a prisoner until it's over (and I refuse to just quit). It's an experience that I wouldnt' necessarily call fun.

Really?
I check it lackadaisically like twice a day--and the first game I finished I placed second.

... I did mention it could become obsessive.

Try a normal game if this isn't your thing. The settings are sped up because I was afraid some people would see the slow pace of the game and get scared off.


Edit: if you're in game 2 I understand what you mean. I screwed up the settings really hard in that game. I accidentally set the map to tiny, instead of large.

Large game maps are 4x the size of the map we're playing on. It's like a TvT in game 1, while game 2 feels like a zvz where both players went one base all in aggro. Sorry.

Well I also feel like this game is too time consuming and feel the same kind of stress as I did back in my dark "ogame" days.
It is especially hard since there are timezones between the players.

I'd prefer a long ass game, where little day-to-day commitment is required.

I played erepublik and what made that game great was the diplomacy and political manuvering. The game required only 2m most days, and longer on election days or battle days. It's just too bad that game never got real traction and is easily exploitable through bots.

I really enjoy this game, it adds the tactical/military aspect with the political/diplomacy aspect. I just feel to play optimally, I need to be awake at 4am (i am in game2) and spend my money to get a jump on my opponents. I also see the need to consitently check (when enemy fleets can get at you in 3 hours), to see what my opponent's fleets movements are.

I really enjoy the game though. It's [strike]fun[/strike]interesting, just demands more attention than I had initially anticipated.

Again, if you're in the 2nd game, I screwed up the initial settings badly. It's not at all how the game is normally played - I had some settings on to make the early game go a little bit faster (otherwise you spend up to 5 real days to just explore local space) - but then I screwed up and made the map small.

@_@ and the 1st game has finally erupted into all-out war. Everyone seems to be in an alliance or another, and everyone is on a 2-front war.

I hate you. I hate you ALL. I get obsessed by these types of games, and I do NOT need this at the moment.
<@Wikt> so you are one of those nega-fans <@Wikt> that hates the company that makes a game and everything they stand for <@Wikt> but still plays the game <@Wikt> (like roughly 30% of blizzard's player base, maybe much more...)
