I know I've been opinionated about this before, and I'm not sure I'd officially change my stance 100%, but off-thread alliance PM discussion is totally awesome and I am enjoying Blend Tatts and my PM thread immensely.
It makes alliances really useful, though I do still have some worries about it being slightly OP and affecting game balance when several players are not in an alliance at all. I guess it'll be easier to make a call once the game is finished whether we want to keep doing it.

So what's the deal with the other eclipse game. Has it died? I haven't seen any updates on it in a while.
I hope it's not waiting on me....I think I have my turn up to date.
It's quite a bit of work for Gnaw -- I can understand if he's not concentrating too hard on it.

I completely forgot about that game. I was watching at the beginning from Spoiler Hell and it seemed insane.

so likely no reaction from D'rek so CF you are up if I'm not mistaken.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

I think its me actually - I'm before Tatts if I'm not mistaken.
Anyway, use my pulsar to upgrade a source over the centre of the Starbase blueprint.

My sig comes from a game in which I didn't heed Blend's advice. So maybe this time I should. ~ Khellendros
I'm just going to have to come to terms with the fact that self-vote suiciding will forever be referred to as "pulling a JPK" now, aren't I? ~ JPK
