I knew something was wrong when I heard, Captain Jamski reporting for duty over the intercom.

[Jamski]

My first officer told me not to use my real name, but....

This is why I just build Frigates... no chance of screwups here.

[GeoModder]

GT, you received my PM but I still don't have a Fighter Dreadnaught more and a Fighter Battleship less in the table.

[Kassiopeia]

Why would you want to correct an error like that?

[GeoModder]

Because it gives me 1 more shippoint of course.

[GeoModder]

Just a liiiiittle proposal ...

Damn.


And Skanky points out that this game is much harder to run than it first appears.

[Jamski]

This is true even if you WROTE the darn rules

Absolutely. The way I ended up doing it was with 3 files. One to record people's orders, the battle file where I listed who attacked who in order and then processed thier orders, and of course the table where the updates were recorded. I have the orders for everyone for every round still on file, which helped when I needed to see how many shields a person had stockpiled or to check if I had accidently put a 1 in the cruiser column rather than the battleship column.

Oh, and orders in.

I did it with a 2 text files for each turn, one which contained the orders in the sequence they were recieved, the other used to write up and process battles. The table was kept in the thread, good thing Poly didnt undergo any catastrophic failures.

Spaced: My point is, you never asked for a fighter ship in the first place, battleship or cruiser. Your first orders asked for a laser ship and a torp ship, which you got.

[GeneralTacticus]

I still need orders from Geomodder, Kuciwalker, Ljube, and Spaced Cowboy, and an OOB from Jamski.
