Sorry for the reload. I left the game open, and did some work. When I got back the boys had quit, so they could play stars! I did everything the same. Only changes were a former made it to its destination with 1/3 of a movement point this time, and a crawler didn't run into a spore-launcher (+2 mins this turn, - 30 energy next turn).

--Parade of scantily-clad cheerleaders shaking pompoms dances past--

Vote Misotu! You know it makes sense

(Do you think living in America has affected me???

And I was going to comment how buying and paying for votes is so much more effective than cheerleaders, but....

Misotu · May 15, 2001, 21:39

Yeah, well the cheerleaders were just to use up the left-over budget

2214 to the new guv.

Misotu · May 16, 2001, 20:15

It's a dirty job, but someone has to do it. Now that we have survived the early years, we feel that the second century should be one of peaceful co-existence, democratic leadership and plenty of jobs for bureaucrats.

2214 is off to Googlie.

2215 to XWaste.

The Drones welcome the new Governor, and are confident that she will uphold the ideals of the U.N. Charter and be a strong defender of human rights and worker's rights. While the previous Governor made no attempts to impose his system on others, we do believe that the treatment of ordinary workers in Hive cities leaves a lot to be desired. It is hoped that they too will now let all their people truly enjoy this era of peace and prosperity.

On other matters… Nice to see that this new-improved web site for Apolyton is now 5 times slower than it was. It only took 4 minutes to get to where this message could be posted.

2216 to the lady in black.

I was finding that the site's changes really slowed up my 'Poly load time as well. I went with the "Poly "Light" version and I am back to the speed I had before.

Unfortunately I have been less successful shutting down the Apolyton junk e-mail.

RF:

There's a feature under "edit options" that lets you unsubscribe to all threads you have started - stops the flow of e-mails.

I found it an annoyance when changing screen names, so Rynn, bless her little heart, is now deceased. Her memory, however, lingers on in the person of my avatar.
