Playoffs don't count? Bah! Shows what I know. <_< Like I said though, it's possible that he could catch Jagr. Thorton is insane with all those Assists.

You can mess with individual planets, but not nearly as much as I would like. That's a loaded question <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Agreed. Some people will absolutely love the game. Others will find things about it that they hate. The good things though, is that if you stir up enough people on the Stardock forum (with intelligent, well thought out posts) then you have a pretty good chance of getting the developers to tweak the game in a future patch.

Now that I've read that sentence over again, I feel like an idiot. I misinterpreted what was written. :"> Ovechkin is only 5 goals behind Jagr. It's is possible that Ovechkin will catch Jagr although it depends on whether or not Jagr has anymore games like the one against the Flyers, or if he goes on a slump like he did earlier. Only time will tell. On Lundqvist though, he does have a chance at pulling into the lead in GAA and S% and if he does I think he probably should be given the Calder. A strong showing in the playoffs would only add more in his favour when Ovechkin's season has ended. Lundqvist still has to pass Huet and Hasek in save percentage and Hasek in GAA.

Hey Volourn, when you responded to the leading the leage in the goals catagory, did you just gloss over the "as a rookie" part of that sentence, or were you intentionally ignoring that?

The economy is confusing. It doesn't tell you anything about how it works and therefore takes a lot of experimentation in order to figure out how things work. I also dislike the global sliders for spending. You have a total spending slider which is how much of your total capacity you will use. That money is then further divided into the three catagories of military, social and research. These settings are on a global scale so they affect every planet in your empire whether you want them to or not. The AI is awesome, depending on the level that you play at, it will through some curveballs at you. I've seen it convince other opponents to attack you as sacrificial lambs to weaken your military while they circle around your empire to swoop in and take out your weaken military. It's not so much that things have been dumbed down, because things are still quite complex, but the problem is that nothing is really explained. Some things are definately simplified, although in certain situations like with the economy, it's been too simplified and doesn't give you enough control over your empire. They tried to remove as much micromanagement from the game as they could, but I feel it's come back to bite them as it doesn't give you the level of control I personally would like. Part of the simplification has been in part due to the AI which can out micro and human with it's spending sliders.

Oh, this game is obviously so much better than Civ 4. No this opinion has nothing to do with me winning a T-shirt. " Seriously though, considering the game is $20 cheaper than Civ 4 it is a great deal. The only thing I don't really like about the game is the economy system which makes no sense to me, although some people seem to have figured it out.

Because he hasn't figured out how to cut it off at the Wolverine getting it's arm blown off. "

It was good as far as RTS games go, but it was not C&C.

If you guys take 6th from Colorado and Calgary stays in third we could have a Battle of Alberta in the first round of the playoffs.

Montreal pulled even with New Jersey tonight for 7th place in the east.

/me thinks it would look better, not horrible. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Do you really want those infantry any smaller than they already are?

My math teacher played that game with us in class. 2 people out of 30 got it right. Unfortunatly I was not one of them. Figured it out later though.

OMG! I can still see that last answer! You ruined the whole test for me!!!!11

Hopefully Montreal can keep up this pace for at least a couple games. Ideally I'd like to seem the in 6th place by then end of the season with hopefully Philadelphia in 3rd. Montreal at least has a chance against Philadelphia but they would likely be taken down by either Carolina or Ottawa if they had to face one of those two.

Didn't take, I just read it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well you're no fun. <_<

^ So what's your score?

Holy crap that new one is hard! I've got 3 so far and none of the others look even remotely familiar... EDIT: I got another one!

Hurray!

Okay, found them all. There was no way that I was going to get any of those others. Only caught 15 of them total. <_< Some of them are evil.

I'm up to 14 and I'm pretty darn sure I've got the second half of one of them but I don't know the first half. <_<

I managed to get to 13, but I can't seem to get any of the others.

It's because they want you to kill people from other countries and not people from your own country. "

That is why we like you Volo. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> We do?

Mwahahaha. And the Leafs are down 5-1 once again. Make that 5-2 on that weird goal. 2 goals by Sundin so far.

The classic rebuttal: LOL u shud shut up, dis ain't no inglish asininement ROFL <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I've managed to train the people that I know to use at least semi-proper english. Some people don't seem to enjoy fire as much as I do. "
