Well, in support of my fellow ToE general, as well as in support of this great idea, I've registered myself at the Twilight Pub. I think this whole idea is very creative, and I believe this will help promote unity within the community, so kudos to CL and Snarkotamus for developing the Twilight Pub!

Wow. Well, my bracket is dead. Pitt going down to Villanova, and MSU taking down Louisville?! That's just bizarre. I had Pitt winning it all, and all #1 seeds in the Final Four. Ahhh well, better luck next year. Though I have to say, that Pitt vs. 'Nova game was awesome. Truly amazing. And the end was just incredible. Has to be one of the greatest basketball games I've ever seen.

NOTICE: It appears a new Metaverse Empire has arisen to power. The Windae Hingin Scotsmen is a new Empire, ruled by the veteran player Snarkotamus, and it has its own thread, so they have been added to the "Active" list, though they will need to prove themselves on the Metaverse, as well as the forums. If you click the link above, you will be sent to the WHS's official thread, where there is a run-down of what the Empire is really about. I encourag

I believe there is an option (in Galactopedia) to limit your viewing to techs that belong to a specific civ. There should be a drop-down list in the upper left-hand corner that allows you to switch between all techs and civ-specific techs, though it will still list techs that other civs may be able to get. As far as a list of civ-specific techs only, I am aware of none, though it wouldn't be too hard to make. It would just take some time.

@SB: The Big Ten has potential, but I just don't see them ever being able to compete with teams from the Big East, ACC, etc. Those teams just score more and play alot faster-paced then a B10 team. MSU's gonna have their hands full with L'ville. I mean, seriously..........when was the last time a B10 team actually scored more then 90-100 pts. in a single game?! But yeah, I hope MSU can at least stick with L'ville. They (MSU) have a good, strong team this year. It'll be interest

[quote who="GmOOnii" reply="9" id="2116332"] I have a question, How does a post become a hot post with the flame icon? [/quote] Actually, I believe it is given the "flame" when there have been 50+ replies to the thread. I'm sure that goes away eventually if people stop posting, but that seems to be the initial threshold. That's what has happened with my threads, and quite a few others that I've noticed. It does go away after a period of disuse, but it takes some

Those that post scores frequently and also have some chat on the forums earn the status "Active." Those that only post scores, and not very often at that, got the "Quiet" column. The rest of the major empires that had "fallen" got the last column.

@Seth: Hey, welcome to the ToE! @FastEddie111: I've got the same opinion as DA and Neilo, but I'm wondering why you're accusing us of this? I've also never heard of you before, and I'm not really sure what you meant by your post, but if you're gonna answer our questions with another rude reply like that, then don't even bother. To my knowledge, nobody in the ToE actually knows you, so please refrain from coming in here and accusing everyone of something that we didn't do.

Damn.......do you actually read a post when it's made, mickeko? Stop trolling around decent threads and looking to push your shitty agenda on everyone. @Motti: Nicely said. @Stardock: Nice idea for a promotional item. The winner will be one lucky customer.[e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]

If you have a previous save of your game, you can reload it. The event probably won't happen again on the reload, though there's always a chance. Not sure what kind of event it is though. What version of GC2 are you playing?

-1 4 I definitely prefer this relaxed version of the game, though it did need to be set at -100=0=100. Margins of 500 are just too much for both the players, as well as the little hamsters running the forums.

I started writing this a few minutes ago, so if any new posts have come up that mention part of my rather long one, I apologize for the repetition. For those of you that are unaware of some key facts, the Tyranny of Evil is an empire on the GC2 Metaverse. For those of you who play SoaSE, that's our form of your clan system. The site was created as a place where ToE (acronym for the Tyranny of Evil) members and friends could come to talk about the game, or a variety of other to

Well, I would recommend the Old Man's War Series in the sci-fi category. They're a series of four books written by John Scalzi. He's relatively unknown, compared to some of the greats, but he's still an incredible author. His writing style is fantastic; he managed to successfully put humor, action, sci-fi, and general knowledge together in each of his books, without it coming across as a seemingly forced attempt by an author to lift their book out of boredom. Here's the first boo

Well, I believe the only possible way you could do this is if you Mod the .xml code, but a more experienced modder should be the one to give the details on how to do that. Even then, I'm not sure you can turn an entire screen off - the game might get a little buggy. You could always edit what they say, so instead of telling you what tech they're researching, they could just pop-up and say something totally random, like: "So....how's your day been? Any new conquests lately?" TB
