Wrong save - this appears to be from the start of your 2120 turn.

Curious, since I didn't get a bounce.

cycon base razed-- film at 11

2122 -> Flubber

Had TWO reloads:
1st time, the password box didn't form properly. I backed out and killed programs, then reloaded
2nd time, got as far as Domai, then I discovered a whole new world of errors. Anyone hear of a fatal exception 0D in module FFFF:0000FFFF?
My comp died again, but I didn't get to the turn that time. I guess it didn't give me enough errors last crash.
Finally, I played the turn normally. Nothing variable happened to the point that I got in previous plays.

Being accustomed to TCP/IP multiplayer, it's very annoying to not have a direct record of what happens to you on others' turns. Fortunately, this time it's abundantly obvious.

The downside of head-to-head: no possibility of diplomacy
The upside: no worries about diplomacy

2122 on to chaos

No I don't know those errors

I agree that the downside of PBEM is not seeing the interplay of units.I hate to think that someone has say flown across my territory without my having an opportunity to see that they did it

Diplomacy in a head to head --ahahahah-- not much point in pretending to be friends. When I saw an empty base, I figured I could set you back a little-- calling you up and talking about it seemed to be of no point-- whats good too is that we can't atrocity willy nilly since atrocities will have a trade cost

[Chaos Theory]

I figured defending that base, given its position, would be a losing proposition, so it would serve as a sort of canary.

hmm but how did you know where I was ??

[Chaos Theory]

I didn't, but I had a guess. If you hadn't been there, I would have kept the base, of course. Since you were, defending it would have been futile.

[Flubber]

I have guesses where you might be as well.

With 3 factions to work with it often becomes only a process of elimination
