Dominus Transcendi Challenge

[Aredhran]

I'll do as many DT's as needed

If anybody's interested in trying a Transcend Race against mark, just speak up.

Even though I lost, I enjoyed my DT game against Tau Ceti and wouldn't mind playing another one. But don't expect me to play quite as fast as I did back then; I don't have as much time to play as I used to have.

By the way, whatever happened to DT1, DT2 and DT3? Did they die?

Here's the actual DT1 thread:

I think Vel conceded between 2155 and 2160. The thread just died, and there is no mention of what happened, but Zsozso had what I'd call a commanding lead at the 2155 update.

It's very interesting that Zsozso was doing so well running Green in all the updates that showed Social Engineering, whereas Vel was running Dem/Planned/Wealth in 2140 and Dem/FM/Wealth in 2150.

DT3 is still running, with less expert players than the DT1, 4 and 5. Last update I've received was 2265. DT2 was abandoned (unless LoD manages to taunt MtG well enough for him to pick up the game again ).

I wish I had the time to do these nice updates as I did for DT1, but unfortunately R/L interferes once more...

I'm interested in playing in this challenge. jcrocombe@dingoblue.net.au

Hobbes

[Aredhran]

So ? Mark13 vs Hobbes, does that sound good ?

[mark13]

Yep, sounds great - I look forward to it!

[Paul]

I was just about to post that I would withdraw for this one because I had already played a DT game and Mark and Hobbes both had not yet played one. But I am still available for new DT games if you need a player.

[Misotu]

Well ... I would be up for a DT game too if there's one going ... misotu@hotmail.com

[Aredhran]

LOL, Mis you're almost as bad as Googlie, you SMACaddict you

DT7, Misotu vs Paul ?

[mark13]

Almost as bad as Googlie?

[Aredhran]

As far as the number of PBEM's subscribed is concerned I mean

[TigToad]

In all fairness, I saw that Fist was going to beat me up the tech tree when I was about 10 techs away and switched to all money to try to beat fist if he got there first and somehow failed to finish his base... on my own I would have transcended no more than two years after fist if I'd kept my research.

Okay, I may be interested in doing another game if someone wants to play a loser.. Maybe Paul and we can have the battle for the worst of the transcenders? Or I always enjoy playing games with Misotu... or both if I'm feeling sick in the head.

[Misotu]

Heh. Well, "almost as bad as Googlie" is probably right. I'm only in 15 concurrent games right now, vs Googlie's 22

I'm in the process of moving at the moment, so my turns might be a bit sporadic in a couple of weeks. But I'll happily play Tig - and Paul too if he would like to take the game - both old friends from a number of MP games ... those early turns don't take too much time and I'm keen on the fast turnaround that the one-on-ones provide.
