It was brought to my attention by another player via PM that you might not understand the rule regarding return of diplomatic cubes to the population tracks....and when I go back through your posts it *does* seem like you were trying to place them in the spots they were taken from. Just letting you know the rule: You can put them back on any track you want, regardless of their point of origin.

So somebody who wishes to remain anonymous wants me to cut materials rather than science. Heh.

Nobody was suggesting you to do anything**. It did honestly seem like you were trying to match the cube to its track of origin after I went back and looked. You can do whatever you like; I'm just offering the opportunity to do so if you weren't aware of the rule.


** but if you could just go ahead and put yourself in a worse position...that'd be greeeat.

Brilliant. Move the cruiser first and force D'rek to be the one to anticipate what you will do with the upgrade the following round. I don't know why I didn't see that. It's so obvious now.

The colored text was simply to break the replies without having to quote 3 times. My second comment was directed at the anonymous person, not you.

So unbunch your panties. I told you I will move that cruiser and I will.

Time to take this to its absurd extreme, then.

Not that I see it actually returning to me anytime soon.

Turn 6
  • Influence action (-30 upkeep)
    • Remove discs from Epsilon Carinae (324) and TBD and return them to track.
    • Return grey cube to science track.
    • Flip any facedown colony ships back up.
  • $5, s0, m11. upkeep -21

Don't be silly, I would never bombard your planets with bozarkian radiation while broadcasting sub-sonic propagandic signals in order to forcefully convert your entire civilian population into mindless cyborgs that carry out my every demand. Really, I wouldn't even think of doing that.

Mindless zombies are after all, and not surprisingly, singularly inept at cheek-horn styling.

Assuming Solid either moves or passes and Tapper doesn't do a reaction I will also

Pass

Holy Crap... This round has gone so slow that I just now realized that my last action was still a provisional that hadn't been processed yet let alone this one.

Hey Gnaw,

You might already be counting on this but Tatts requires 2 reactions to build and move his second dread into your homeworld. If everyone passes before the gets a chance at the second reaction that improves your odds greatly.

Heh. Yeah, the reaction thing is a factor in my planning. It allows me to be a step ahead and broadens my options oh so slightly.

The pass thing had not occurred to me. I'll give that some thought, though I doubt CF would play along; he needs me to get stomped by Tatts.But for the moment, my Turn 6 is provisional only.

Twelve tou're a fairly nice guy and clever to boot. And I don't believe a contrary word that those others say behind your back.



Not even from Tapper.
