Alam al-Mithal, turn tracking thread

[smhfan86]

Actually, since it was a probe to probe confrontation between I and Darsnan. I was not given the option to interrogate his probe team. Clearly, Darsnan was using that probe team to 'obtain' information about other factions, therefore, I felt it my duty to eliminate it.

probe vs probe combat is not sufficient for vendetta. however, if a military unit destroys a probe, then that is sufficient for vendetta.

Thank you DuMa, I was not aware that you had returned the probe team. You must realize, that I cannot possibly keep tabs on all my units, as my empire is vast and proving more difficult to run by the day.

I'm thinking about hiring some more assissants, preferably, with the latest enhancements.

Almost as bad as a power failure (!)

Well, considering that I actually encountered 2 Hive Probe Foils last turn, plus the Hive Probe that duMa sent home, it would appear as though Chairman smhfan86 is much more into the probing of his neighbors than I am! In response to this datum, I am currently building many probe teams to man my seacoast cities in response: I suggest other factions do the same before the Hive gets to them, too!

Turn to smhfan86.

To All,

I will be out of town from July 4th - July 9th. FYI.

Do what you must Darsnan.

Question: While just playing the most recent turn, I got a fatal error and the game crashed. Something about unable to allocate buffer. Is this cuz I haven't turned off my computer in a day?

Almost certainly it has to do with the fact you have had your computer on all day. Essentially Windows is very poor in re-allocating RAM, so as the day wears on and you utilize more programs, the RAM gets used up and at some point you can no longer draw enough RAM in order to open a "new" program. Contact Northswordsman for a very good RAM re-allocation program (its Freeware, but I personally don't have the site available to me) to solve this problem. FYI.

okay, rebooted my system and it worked fine. so yeah, most likely the game crashed cuz i had it on all day.

Darsnan comes back tomorrow and our great game shall resume.

I started two other games around the same time. I'm on turn 26 on one, turn 15 on another.

I leave my computer on 24/7, I get memory problems with SMAC. Someone had recommended RAMBooster to me... but I found it didn't help a hell of a lot. I just need more RAM... although my computer doesn't seem to realize that it's not that tough any more... but I'm not gonna tell it. This little PII450 is outperforming my friends' PIII800's in games.

Ah well. Post #200. Does that change my status?

Eat at Morgan's.

Woo hoo! I love this game. I can't believe we're playing a huge map too, it's gonna take forever to explore.

you're lucky, i got a p2 350. boy i feel left behind technologically.
