Woohoo

A 4-turn fix in less than 24 hours! ('Course, the wife feels a bit lonely.)

my solution to the sig.other being 'lonely'

get them to act as your secretary or foreign advisor/minister/secretary... women are better at communication anyway right?

get them to do the yak'in while you do the wack'in

(note: this may not work for all sig.others (like mine) cuz some of em just can't get 'into' it... oh well, just put those types in front of a tv with friends reruns etc

wow... feels like friday eh?

Well, wifey sat down Last week and did the tutorial. She did a few more turns. Some AI whacked her scout ship and she asked, "What do I do now?"

I guess she's better at flamin' mechs on the Zone...

Some of the Posts about getting the sig.other involved are hilarious!

But the discussion does bring up a very good point.

Is it possible to have a game with a guy/gal teams.

The wack'in and yak'in division is interesting.

Would it promote better relations between the "duo players" Or would there be major discord (the guy wants the super-duper annihilator weapon whereas his she wants to trade for Farm Facility 2).

And would it spill over and have major repercussions in other areas of their daily life (the wife/girlfriend is so pissed at being pressured to get the super-duper weapon that she starts to withhold certain "interactions" with her sig.other).

Guys, are we stepping into something where angels fear to tread?

Great job on getting it back up and running again... one odd thing, though. It seems to be 12 hours off--AM/PM are reversed.

Can you change it without throwing off the 24-hour cycle of current games? Or will games scheduled to calc within the next 12 hours get cranked when you move the clock ahead?

Aha, I thought it was off, but it being exactly 12 hours was throwing me. Thank you for pointing that out.

Normally I could not change the time without kicking off at least a couple games, but right now I still have the autoprocessing off so no games will run because of time limits anyway. They either have to have all turns in or the game owner has to force the turn manually to run from the game admin screen.

Nobody freak out but I am taking the server offline for a few minutes to do some updates. Will be back before you know it most likely.
