Just a quick survey to see how talented our team is. Please vote truthfully, there's no shame in being a regular Citizen level player... and if you are you don't have to admit it was you who voted that option...

I voted for "I not only beat the AI, but I kick arse in Multiplayer too" I always beat Transcend, I play all kinds of challenges and I have only lost one MP game (to Lazerus, who has never lost in MP) I've really been wasting my life, eh?
/me really loves SMAC

I voted "I ALWAYS win at Transcend", but I've never played against a human player, so you can take that with a grain of salt.
Anybody who reads the techniques in AC-Strategy and elsewhere, and applies them can jump from Librarian to Transcend fairly quickly, as I did.
I played the game at Librarian for a long time because I didn't seek out extra information on how the game works. Just knowing about ecodamage or crawlers really changed my game.
But I only play for fun and don't go for the challenges, don't squeezing out every last drop of turn advantage, don't have the tech tree memorized, etc.
I would consider myself an advanced player, but more tuned to single player than multi."We are living in the future, I'll tell you how I know, I read it in the paper, Fifteen years ago" - John PrineComment

Voted "always win on transcendence", though my strategy is much less refined against human opponents.You can only curse me to eternal damnation for so long!Comment

Never actually finished a game with the AI. Play at transcend, but when I realize it is just a matter of waiting for my units to sweep across yet another land mass until I wipe the other factions off planet i stop and start a new one. Thus, I really don't know much about later game as I have never let it last that long. As for multiplayer... ppl just seem to surrender after I cripple themthe Glorious Comrade Chairman can attest to this.

Librarian here.
I've beaten it on Transcend ONCE, but i think that was out of sheer luck. I didn't get planet bustered that much in that game.
Librarian is the constant for me.Despot-(1a) : a ruler with absolute power and authority (1b) : a person exercising power tyrannically

Librarian, too. Although I have played Transcend several times, it was too frustrating to loose three bases at a single turn to hordes of mindworms...
Never lost a transcend game either

I'm still at the talent level. I plan to stop spamming here so that I would actually have some time to play.

Don't go, the Hive needs you, it really looks up to you...
