Not an excellent host.

I've never seen MoO, and I'm a casual fan of 4x games in general - I'm definitely following this thread with interest.

As far as I know, Master of Orion was the first game to do this whole ship-designing thing. It was certainly the earliest one I've already seen it in.

I was going to argue this point with Stellar Conquest III, but not only was it done a year later, but seems to be a bit inspired by MoO now that I look at them side by side. :aaaaa:

I want to see how hard you can cheese the game, Thotimx. And a great big "gently caress you" to these rear end in a top hat AIs is the perfect time to do it (if you can.) :v:

Edit: For the record, I hate diplomatic victories. Then again, I tend to play 4x games for the slog more than anything else.

I prefer screenshots LPs rather than video.

Anyways, do what you gotta do.

This. I read LPs over a remote connection while at work half the time, and I often have to drop things and then try and remember where I was in a video because I left it running. But hey, as long as we get the screenshots still, it's all good. I'm enjoying reading these. :munch:

And hey, fellow MUD goon :hfive: Makes me wonder if I knew you back in the day (you'd certainly know me by my name here - it hasn't changed since the early 90's :v:)

MUDs were the best tool for learning touch typing. :allears: At least if you were a PKer.

Playing MUDs for 20 years is 100% of the reason I type 90-100WPM now.

Edit: I think most of us picked up that you weren't dropping the screenshot format. We SSLP lovers just love to talk about how screenshots are so much better. :v:

This is probably the most interesting game of the bunch.

I should flip out now and say 'screw this I quit this LP'. Just to see what would happen in the thread.

To be fair, after the last comeback/win, we'd probably just say "hey, good job, loved the LP."
