Delay is NP.. the other game's been cranking out the turns today, don't think I could have handled both.

You work Mon-Fri?

I work TUE-THU and one FRI a month. I really don't mind the 12hr shifts, actually I kind of like getting the 4 days off in between.

Well, I think it's official that everyone has encountered another human player. It took a while longer for me as I have an usual position on the map. I cannot reveal more about it, but it's cool - although I'm curious about the goings on outside my area...

Newbie 1 seems to head for conflict eventually between me and the 2nd place player (Nostro race). For now we remain peaceful though.

Phoenix, in Newbie II it suddenly takes the server at least 30 minutes to process turns, unlike the 3 minutes or so it used to be. Any idea why?

I believe they are preparing to move to a faster server, so it might be related to that.

Ya know you might be right. But I'm not the number 2 player anymore. I've been pushing my score for the Last 10 turns and I find that it is quite hard to catch another players score.

I just kind of wish that everyone was aggressive so that we actually got in war causing disagreements. Maybe that's a byproduct of having only 4 human players, and no other expanding empires.

Baal, you're right, you surpassed me and am now number 1. You got some impressive resource production going on. Have you met Phoenix yet in the game? I wonder if he could be of any help to me

Because in 6-8 turns as you begin expanding westwards you'll run into me.

Oops sorry for the double post, I saw a typo in the first one and thought I hit "stop" in time before the post was actually made. Oh well.

The newbie 2 delay probably had something to do with the turn execustion barfing on us..
