Woops, sorry guys. I was using my SMAC game and Cave Story attempts as my personal triggers to update THIS game, and when someone went on vacation in that game and I beat Balros... heheh. Also, been busy with cataclysm stuff and just plain kept forgetting (I'd occasionally remember here at work and forget by the time I got home)

I'll try to do an update tonight and nightly updates for the rest of the week/weekend to make up for it! (again, sorry!)

Thanks for the reminder kaian-a-coel. Send me another in... 4 hours? :P

*smacs Gryph*
*chuckles at own pun*

So...how's SMAC? And where did you get it? I've been wanting to play, but was under the impression that it was out of...print?

That is a reasonable excuse in itself. Because darn that is one hard ending. :S

Honestly, it was basically the only part of the game that I enjoyed, mechanically (still not a huge fan of the game overall, mostly because it's a huge bucket of guide-dang-it). Most of it was ridiculously easy and dumb, so it was a nice change of pace to have a bit that was actually fun to play.

But man that song is addictive.

Well, hey, at least it can't get any worse. Right?
ROUND 13 HAS ENDED

Your event cards for the day are...
Bad Omens and Times of Hardship. All players lose 5 happiness or 25% of max happiness (whichever is higher) and lose two action points unless they are depressed.
Pests! Pests eat half of each players stored food, rounded up.

Something has happened...
Toaster pushes the frontier! He discovers a Medium Delite Claim (80 Delite Capacity, 10% Delite Recovery).

ROUND 14 BEGINS

(Also, Sorcerer Kail, did you mean to invalidate your half-completed Mine Wampoon action?)

Clearly running multiple missions at the same time is a terrible idea.  The epic battle to see which team can cock it up worse has escalated again.

And Larry kinda gets blueballed in all this; just left with a raging bone spear and no where to put it.
