Also did GSC change his name to the First Order by his Ren gif?

the quickest way to get onto infinitum was to put a picture on imgur and hope it gets enough votes to get to front page.



or i could just PM him.


Also I just realised this game is gunna FLY. 24 hour ticks per turn. last game we had 12 ticks per turn, but only cash every 24. money gonna roll in, and moves gonna happen fast. this should be heaps of fun.

Build industry and science, try to make alliances with your closest neighbors, then have a loving meltdown when everything goes tits up.

get more stars than everyone else.

that's the whole game.


the key thing to remember for this game is 'how much do you trust people?'




you think mafia can be frustrating?

wait till you have tee'd up an alliance with two other players, come up with a plan where the three of you surprise attack another player to expand and just after you start your attack the other two cancel their alliance with you. it's then that you realise the other two were setting you up and had a secret agreement with the player you had all agreed to attack

so after all your ships are wasted attacking the player, the first two players that back stabbed you and setup a secret agreement with the other player, then back stab them over your corpse and instead of there being four players in that crowded space, there are now two larger ones.

then they probably end up fighting too.

that's how you play neptunes pride

economy is good. upgrading science and industry needs cash and as you've already notices, upgrades increase in prices. so you need to pump your economy up

Amazing.

This is not the same game, it's similar, and it's done in real time, but it's very similar in concept and should give you an idea of how paranoid you're going to get.

This + tapering down anxiety medication is why I declined the invite beet. But now I've gone and asked to do Bif's mafia so IDK what I'm thinking, should've played, I want to be busb's friend.
