Aww.  Can't we do both? 

Sounds like a plan.  I have a mumbler to finish first though. 

WTG, KP! 

heh, of course you can. i was only speaking for myself, though i'm glad you're on board with the "thrust for more points" idea  i just don't have energy left at the end of my day to spend time thinking about trolls, 20-year-old kids and other other people i generally place in the "loser" file. life's too short, ya know? 

Not the most effective way of increasing points.  I started out in 29th place with over 600k points before starting a ZYW run.  (I still have my mumbler in my "Evil Twin" character and will take it up after more ZYWs). 

The points will start going positive before long though.  I'm a bit rusty at the ZYWs for now, but that's changing as we speak.   

good game motti! you should post some tips on getting ZYWs up that high... as committed as i am, i'm definately not the same caliber you are.

Thanks, dys. 

I have nowhere near the abilities of KP or Mag, but I'm working on it.  OK, not really working on it so much.  Just having a few margaritas and clicking the mouse.

Trying to talk the wife into loading one of my spare GalCiv2 copies on her machine and joining the fray.  I still have two in the boxes that I haven't loaded up anywhere or given away yet.  I think she needs a few more margaritas before she agrees to try it though.   

Good one Motti!   I haven't attempted one since they were being done on tiny maps .

Oh yea, I love the characters name

like the name HA!

Well i will bring Centurion Neilo out of retirement and rush to 500 games. I could be there within two days but i will take a little longer. There is no way that i am going to let Harborne be the first to 500 games. The ZYW is my bandwagon and i'll be damned if he is going to jump right on and gain some recognition out of it....

i have a mumbler half way done, should be good for 800K+ and i have my other ZYW char that has only played a few games so he has great value in him with the gigantic ZYW's.

Well done KP on breaking the 100K barrier!!! I cannot break my score in the 90K's, i dont even recall the exact score, but i can, once i get back intot he swing of it, knock out a gigantic ZYW in about 5~6 minutes, though about 12 is the average.

Edit - Don't ya love that edit works again now, that post was a real mess before i edited it.....how i got multiple 9's throught the post i don't know...

Thanks DA and Freeman.   

Good call, neilo.  The mumblers can go on hold for now. 

I'm on board, Dys.  Let's go spam some ZYWs.   

YEAH lets go guys!!! Lets show those Kzin what we're...er wait, I'm a Kzin...

SOOOOO...uh...is that an open or cash bar?

An open bar would be my vote.  Oh, and remember to add Triple sec and fresh lime juice to that margarita mix.  It makes a big difference.   

That I would agree with...There is still something in the Applebee's "Dos Rita Rox" that I cannot duplicate at home...

You could always have your third free character slot become and evil tyrannical canine Loup? We could do with a new guard dog, Piznit's is on vacation it seems.

MV-wise I've been lame the past 2 months.  I've posted more games to the MV for the MVL than I have with Loup since my ZYW rampage.

So my 3rd char slot wouldn't be of any use for yas lol.

~clicks another week and tallies the spy cost~ Anywho, I'm killing my current time working on spy costs in 2.0's beta

Harborne has removed the last illegal characters from his empire and has incorporated his sister's account into his.  He asked me to post this information here since he can't post in this thread. 

I checked the account and it looks legit.  I believe we can consider the matter closed.
