I have an issue with allowing people to change the star names.  People paid extra to get the honor of naming the stars, so people should not be able to change the star names.  Also if you have an issue with the star names, just suck it up.  It is no different then the planets being named after Greek/Roman mythology.  What if you are Muslim or some other religion, or an atheist, are you going to go cry and try to change the planet names?  No, you deal with it because that is what they are called.  You are never going to get 100% of the people to be happy with any given name.  It is just a part of life, so focus on something more constructive about the game; instead of the star names, which does not affect game play at all.

They will always be the same in the base game unless they have been edited by the devs.

You do realize that some people paid for the privilege of naming a star after a particular variety of puke. Sorry I don't want to spend an entire game looking at a star and plates names Batchit. Frankly the name I chose was stupid (but not profane) if I see it I will probably change it :)

But if i have 2 starbases with zero G will I get 20%? 10 from each and not 10 from the first and then 7 for the second or something.

No, individual star bases do stack. That is the reason some of our power players have figured out how to put 4 econ bases around their planets. That's a little too intense for me but I still think 10% (and there is another bonus above that) is nothing to sneeze at when you are going to build a gazillion SB anyway.

The relic bonuses do stack and you are only limited by the number of relics available. I have gotten up to 200% bonuses and there were still unexploited relics that could be used. I am almost afraid to talk about it for fear the OP faction will start one of their campaigns against them. :)

If you have access to a real computer you can view their past broadcasts on twitch. I prefer youtube myself, since I tend to watch on my iPad. I think having the dev stream on a Friday afternoon leads to the lack of consistency in uploading to YouTube.

I've tried that. They've removed it.

My apologies sir, The real power players are so far ahead of me I have trouble grasping the concepts. :)

For those who cannot make it for the live stream, it would be very nice if replays could be posted like they used to be. Thanks

I am glad that they are making tech choices matter.It was a bit silly have specialization techs when you could research every one.

Updated with replay. :)

The problem sometimes with YouTube videos, especially when they go over an hour, it takes quite some time for them to process to a decent resolution. Usually it's not too bad, but sometimes it can go well into Friday night before it's ready to watch.
