ACT003 turn update part 2

[Misotu]

The Commissioner is pleased to agree that her population is impressive, but would remind the CEO that she is forced to run planned in order to achieve this growth

Now that the Cloning Vats are on line, the CEO will be able to run his beloved free market, while experiencing a permanent state of population boom.

We see no reason for any despondency on the part of the CEO.

This game is amazing.. the tech level we have for year 67 is astounding. Too bad it has to end..

CEO Buddha wishes to remind Commisioner Misotu that she is still in control of the highest faction on the power bar and her population is unparallelled. Meanwhile we Morganites have been on the bottom spot for quite some time despite our tremendous income and our fantastic research.

Any guesstimates (guess/estimate for our non native english speakers) on when transcendance will be? I have no clue who it could be since we are all so evenly matched but I am predicting year 78-85 off the top of my head.

Right now that appears to be the only way to win. Anyone trying to corner the market will be nuked, someone trying to conquer will face a back attack, and no one can do a diplo victory given current conditions.

Well Morganite researchers were pleasantly surprised to discover that the previous estimate of 4 techs as a 70th anniversery present were wrong, instead 5 breakthroughs were made in Morganite labs in this landmark year. Also the Morganite people are experiencing a new form of government known as "cybernetic", which places an emphasis on research, efficiency, and harmony with Planet.

70 -> Mis

Also the CV were a lot more important than I thought they would be because they allow me to run 100% labs while being only 60 credits further down the hole each turn. All those specialists are pretty important to my current economical configuration.

Also take note that since my economy right now is only +2 the differences between our various PACT incomes is tiny, maybe a total of 20 energy for my entire empire. I hope this pleases the Commisioner and the Provost. Your final gifts of 10,000 energy and all of my techs each will be presented 20 years from now .

Could I have an advanced payment on those 10,000 energy and tech? In 20 years I hope to be a transcendant being with no need for energy credits.
