It's not really unfair Seth, it just makes our ultimate victory that much sweeter.

that gold medal does look nice, CL. it'll look nicer when it's got a friend to keep it company

He should get a special medal for busting 2 million points in a combined total of only 10 years. Another week or two, and he'll have all 3 of his characters wearing those medals.

Oh great, now the fucking Medals are broken. I can't anyones medals.

EDIT:Nevermind.

and with considerably fewer games than the few other folks who've achieved such feats.

Congrats on getting the highest all time score for GC2, CL! 

My latest game. 

Nice game mate. I bet those 9 class 1's you found made all the difference!!

Great Game!!!! Especially impressive since it is Dark Avatar!

ahh, how times have changed

and of course, good game motti!

Another 1M+ point game!

Nicely done motti!!

Congrats Motti!

Sentient species taste better...

Bon Motti! Nice to see things have let up enough so you can pund out another monster score

Score a million...get a beer!

Nice job, Motti

Hmm....mayhaps it's time to resurrect our thread a bit?

Of course it is!

I have been away from GC2 for quite some time now, but I think I'm starting to warm back up to it a bit. I'm not a huge fanatic by any means, but I think a couple of leisure games would be nice. Also, after reading some of the newer threads on up-and-coming Mods that are being developed, I'm kinda excited and impatient to download a few once they're finished. And we can't forget the new update to GC2 that we're finally going to be getting! It'll be nice to play the game again with a few less bugs when it comes out.

A toast to the continued prosperity of our small, evil empire!

The Few, The Powerful, The Deadly...The Tyranny!

Congrats to the ToE for being able to survive 2 on the MV and for having many wonderful players who know how to achive high scores. I wish the Geckodon Alliance could have lasted for that long, but one day (and by one day I mean Galciv 3, if it has a MV) the Geckodon Alliance will return.

Wow....did i get a shock when i got an email about this thread has recieved a reply...LOL.

My game continues.  It's a DA Gigantic, abundant all.  With a twist.  I'm using older, standard tactics, but updated with modern ideas.  As if that makes any sense.   

Other persuits have my attention right now, but I'm getting a few turns in per week.  It's early year 3 and my year 2 test score was the lowest I've had in recent memory.  We'll see how it comes out.   

  Hey everybody, I thought I would see what is up!   Just to let you know I am still around.  

You have heard about the new Galciv2 patch Stardock is working on? 

The one promised to be done 2 weeks ago....that one?

Motto old tactics are great, I use them all the time coz their so good.

My favourite is attacking an opponent with non direct means of attack. AKA i use everything but weapons to kill my enemies. I set them against eachother, I drain their treasuries and influence, I overpower them with influence, I ally them then betray them... In general I use everything to my advantage. I buy a technology for 5000, sell it to 3 other races for 3000. I kill them with economy and with technology gain. I let them do the research and I buy it with my inter-twining web of economic scandled. I make profit off gaining technology from other races, they pay me to give me technology in an unconcious sense.

This tactic of indirect combat, scandels and galactic supremecy came from the old tactics you taught me , well not you specifically but all of you as a total.

You mean that huge load of bullshit SD told us just so we could shut up?

With every week that passes, more and more people are going to come around to that view. I'm still a week or two away, myself. My two current theories are:

1) They can't figure out how to fix the problem, which is compounded by the fact that Brad has spilled the beans about the Planetary Governor Exploit, or

2) They are actually going to do something positive for the players and fix the GUI issue. After all, what is the use of multiple PGs when the controls are on the DETAILS screen where we can't see what is on the planets? Nor is there any way to easily tell what PG, if any, is already assigned to a planet.

Face it, the most miserable part of this game is the planet buildout process. Why make a PG, then add unnecessary steps? The PG control should be a simple dropdown menu on the same screen as the Planet Surface view. Not a popup that obscures the view, a dropdown.

Now for the fun part: Let's vote!

A: Load of BS

B: They can't figure out how to fix it

C: They are fixing both the PG and the GUI

I vote B. No on ever admits when their stumped when their in a position of superiority.

D: None of the above
