can't kill that i'm afraid.

i can donate some resources though if you need.

could Duke tell at what time it would be best the goods arrive? I would hate it if he suffers an attack for the 25k Deut I will send him...


On the Greeks: they appear a bit too straong. Not this guy at this planet, but their alliance...
Maybe we can get away with a retaliatory strike, but maybe not.

We must be carefull with whom we mess

[Sparrowhawk]

Agreed, and any alliance such as Blu I hope we attack and continue to attack.

With someone like ADSLGR I hope we catch up with them by attacking everyone weaker than them (and us) and once we have 200+ active members and are capable of taking them on, then I am all for attack, until then I think we take our lumps and aim for smaller targets

/me offers his 2 cents worth

[Skanky Burns]

While we (as an alliance) are weak, just try not to make yourselves a target. Spend any resources you can, fleetsave the rest.

[germanos]

If you recall a fleet, ALL Deut (needed for the trip) is STILL COMPLETELY SPEND upon return

[Skanky Burns]

Yeah, which is why you send them out slowly.

[Sparrowhawk]

That's what I was wondering back when Spaced recalled his fully loaded Colony Ship which he mistakenly loaded it with resources. A costly mistake either way, but one that I think he would have been better off to let happen rather then recall the ship.

Perhaps Spaced didn't know this either?

*cough*

I probed an NZ8 member yesterday, but was able to talk him out of attacking me. At the time I had almost enough resources to start hyperspace engine research just sitting there. Today another member of his alliance probed me - thankfully I had less resources around at this time.

Getting a moon more than makes up for it, loss or no.

Sucks for your loss though, Hueij.

1. The moon is in uni 3 where there is no apolliance.
2. It were me not Hueij who got da moon.

Makes me want to quit the uni3 player cuz I got no back-up there.

Bugger.

That I know. He had a loss without any benefit, which sucks. You had a loss with benefit, which is somewhat good.

Speaking of losses, I attacked someone with a cruiser and a cargo. They had one missile launcher. My fleet was destroyed in one round.
I've got to hand it to him though, it was well played.

EDIT: It was an NZ8 player.
/me shoots himself for stupidity.

I think I figured it out, the score must be calculated only once every 24 hours.

That is why I was still over 5K this morning after teh attack, and now I'm just over 4K even though I've done just about nothing since then.

At least I have noob protection again.

Man I still have no ships and no resources though...and no help. I tried applying to the alliance that whacked me and they said nope. Looks like finding some friends in this uni will be tough.

I think it must be calculated more often then once every 24 hours, I have been checking pretty regularly and it seems like every couple of hours it updates.
_________________________________

As for the noob protection, it seems like this changes throughout the game too. Anyone figure out any pattern or read anything on this? It seems like there is a regular change as your score goes up of weaker players becoming "noob" (lime green) and stronger players becoming "available" (white) from unavailable (red).

I am not sure I even understand the 5000 threshold, is this the number where no one is any longer "red" or unavailable? Can Germanos or Skanky verify that after 5000 there are no longer players in red on the Galaxy screen?
