uh, guys...

I do not think this will save the poly OT.

The on topic appears to be mostly spam.

The only way this site's gonna get more posters is if your parents have more babies.

This is some sort of freaky reverse DanSing.

You never know what will help - why hasn't anyone written this up as a front page news item?

It's been on the front page at AC2 for hours already.

[Lorizael]

Probably because the guy who runs this site is a farmer in the Philippines.

[Buster Crabbe's Uncle]

I do believe he's onsite ATM -- he's dead people, y'know...

Anyway, why leave it to him? I'm busy at my own place. Somebody step up.

What is the total cost of keeping this site running?

[Ben Kenobi]

Yeah, can't say it's my cup of tea.

[Buster Crabbe's Uncle]

Know anything else about it?

There's a link to a big long PCGamer interview there.

Not to harp on it or anything, but totally to harp; another episode of SpammyCast is out since I started harping, again crowding the real news further down the front page. Somebody step up, 'cause this new game is a promotional opportunity for 'poly, too, and 'poly got this way waiting for someone else to do the work. I'm taking care of my own place in the meanwhile...

[Bugs ****ing Bunny]

Man, you're like a kid on Christmas Eve, aren't you? It'll happen at some point.

[Nikolai]

What was wrong with my thread about it?

And yes, it's very real.

[Nikolai]

If you're not competing against other human factions, it doesn't really seem like a SMAC sequel to me. But maybe I'm being too narrow in my definition of a sequel.

You are. Whatever makes you think you aren't?

[Nikolai]

The acronym for this game is going to be SMCBE. Just doesn't have the same ring to it as SMAC. Also kind of looks like SMBC came out with a game but screwed up the acronym. What's that, you say? It'll just be BE? Poppycock. Maybe CBE or CivBE. Yeah, I'm thinking CivBE. Civby. I'm done talking now.

BE is fine.

i really liked the layered maps that was used in test of time. i really wish they'd bring that feature back for modding purposes.

Damn straight!
