Turn is passed to the Peacekeepers.

I can be online often weeknights and during the day, and I always check early in the morning, do you guys want to try to coordinate our check times a little to try to maximize turns?

Turn back to Hive.

Re coordination: Sure ... I'm on the West Coast and tend to be on almost every night, starting around 7 Pacific. Of course, if I don't see an e-mail right around there I might not get to it for hours because I'm playing a game!

Turn to Morgan.

I am on the computer at home from about 6-10 central time, weekdays. I send you my turn usually right around 6. Sometimes I check later in the evening, if there is a good chance of a turn coming in around 9-10 I could check each day around then.

Weekends I am on and off so it's tough to say. I can read messages during the day, but can't play turns at work!

Turn is on to the Peacekeepers.

Ok.. so Garth checks his at 6pm Central time (roughly)... I'm checking my turns, (mountain time) at 8-9am, 11am, 3pm, 6pm, 9pm and about midnight. (roughly of course).. it seems to me that recently I've been getting my turns out to Blunder in the evening between 7-10pm, (when I get it from Garth).. and he has his turned pretty quickly afterword. Only way I see we might be able to speed it up, is that since I can check in the afternoon, if Garth could check in the morning (before work/school/whatever) we might get two turns in a day done. At least we'd all but guarentee one in a day, of course there are times we'll be slower, for example, I don't check till quite late at night on tuesdays and sundays because I have rpg's on those nights. So after I check about 3pm, I don't check again until around midnight.

We're making okay time as it is.. I just am curious how we could maximize turns, get this thing exciting!

Turn to Morgan.

I can check again at 10Pm in the evenings, but I have enough problems getting to work in the morning without checking a turn.

Yeah it's like playing in slow motion like this eh? Oh and how am I not first in anything! When this is done I want to know what you guys are doing and I'm not! I am the Hive I should at least be first in population, where's my growth bonus!!

You say that 'you're the hive' like they're a good faction or something.. Grin. You grow ok early on, but once you get demo/planned you fall way back in the growth department (no forced population booms!), your tech is slowed by the -1 energy especially early on when bases are small.. now, you produce military units and such like mad from that awesome +1 production bonus.. I don't know why you're not leading in military yet..grin.

Turn's onto the peacekeepers..grin

To Morgan.

We would like to offer our congratulations to the Peacekeepers, who according to our sources has completed the Merchant Exchange. Don't we get messages when others build SP's like in single player game?

Yeah the tech is pretty slow at the early game for me. How is the military leader calculated? Is is just combat units, or does it include formers, etc.

No, we don't appear to get those messages like in single player, only way to know its been finished is to announce it.

I believe military units is total combat units... and you have taken over one of the 7 slots as of my turn, wealth. I spent some of my cash rush building...

On to the Hive.

OK, so the secret's out about the Merchant Exchange. Forgive me for not mentioning it. I was busy, um, counting energy credits.

If you want to all agree to it now, we can just agree to announce when we complete any secret project? Otherwise it will start to get very secretive later when we all start researching different techs.

I will announce. I will also keep an eye on you guys!

Sorry I forgot to post that I finished my turn.

I also sent Zsozso the info from our turn 10. I reloaded the save from turn 10 to get the leaders.

Man, how is the Hive leading in wealth That's just strange.

Well, Secret Projects are not secret at all, you don't even need infiltrator info to see who is doing and who has completed what. Just press F5 and see it all.

OK, got the first one. My ISP's e-mail server must be having problems of some kind. It tells me that the turn was received last night around 7:30, but I checked my mail repeatedly and as late as 2 this morning. Oh well, it will clear up eventually.

Turn 2117 sent to Hive.

There's a little delay here ... my ISP says the e-mail problem is fixed, but now the server has to deal with the backlog of e-mail. I'll keep you posted.
