That could mean that you get the early tech lead . Well actually you will have to get the early tech lead since my beloved Drones actually keep no tech-- I am actually stockpiling energy in one base

I will play after work which unfortunately will be around 2am your time. But on the upside, I should be able to pump out a few turns over the weekend

That sounds good to me

I'm actually a busy boy when it comes to MPs right now. I'm currently in SIX games. 3 regular started few weeks ago and two I replaced Tai Ma Shu due to the NY attack (he lives there and the connections are way down) plus this duell. Hopefully it would spread out so that I won't get stuck playing turns all day.

I am also in six PBEMs and it kind of snuck up on me. I was down to one and had signed up for a tourney game and a role play game ages ago but neither was moving. Now things ballooned as I took over as a replacement for Walt in Axt 045, challenged you, and started the "Sealurk Alert" game. So that was four . . . but then I got a tourney game and the Roleplay game tried to start.

I'm hoping that it won't get too intense. I find that the early turns are so short its not a big deal and 4 of my 6 games are before 2120 so it should be ok for at least a month and by then one of my more advanced games might be over.

In any event, a turn or so a day is usually manageable and when there are generally reliable players , delays every now and again are more acceptable. On that note, I will be out of town and unable to play from Oct 17-21. I do not propose to get a replacement. Other than this I do not forsee any other significant periods on unavailability for several months.

The faction have taken up the legacy of Chairman Yang and level 4 control. The entire faction will upgrade its security and put effort into making this faction the best controlled and most drone-free faction on the planet. The cost for this action is finaced by the new discovered fortune southwest of basecontrolledarea.

Meanwhile the investigation continues without any new breakthroughs.

The first breaktrhough in tech will take us further in our aim for planetary socialism and help us bring the drones in justice.

" WHAT ??!! Are you telling me we have been here eight years and our scientists have accumulated ZERO knowledge ? What is happening ? Why was I not informed before ?"

" ummm, errr. . . sir, we have discovered a computer virus which wipes out our grand library each night. Our scientists can work as hard as they like but nothing is retained in the computer banks. It is impossible for scientists to advance the work of others when they are unable to access even a rudimentary base of knowledge. We have known about his since the landing and have ordered the scientists to assist in energy generation rather than research. We need to make them useful"

"Well ok but we need new inventions . . . when will we start to get them?"

" I am working on the problem and think I almost have it licked. I figure that data inputted after 2010 won't be garbled. I will run a test then"
