Reply to I finally finished a game, and I can't upload to metaverse in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Ok, let's see the check list: - the email adress must correspond to the one associated with the playe on this site - the serial register with the player (http://www.galciv.com/playerreg.asp) must match the serial on your machine. This means that if you have AP, your regesiter metaverse player must be the one with AP, if you have TotalGaming Network, then it must be the serial Id associated with TGN. - your firewall must allow galciv.exe to send data to the outside

[quote](PS: If my math is correct then it could decimate the metaverse as we know it... EVEN if my math is incorrect it would still totaly changes thingsa as we know them) [/quote] Your math is correct: 4 60K games per month give 120 K. For information: 16 60K games per month give 240 K So the points would have been halved if the people weren't using 4 accounts each. But don't forget that the only way to climb fastly the metaverse ladder is to submit 60K games. The more 60K

[quote]I'd appreciate Peace Phoenix's opinion on this - if you have multiple active aliases and all the actives are in the SAME empire, then surely this is a distinct advantage?[/quote] Yes, it is an advantage for your empire. If a player has M distinct active accounts and split his games equally in each account, there will be a factor between the sum of his accounts' scores and the score he would have experienced if using only one player equals to squareroot(M).

[quote]If Weyrleader and PassingBye were recombined into one player with 600 games, then his Metaverse point count in his empire would surely be lower than the simple sum of Weyrleader + PassingBye as seperate players? Is that right?[/quote] Yes. with only one player registred, the score would be near 2975 K. And Weyrleader + Passing Bye = 3 378K. It would have been worse if Weyrleader and Passing bye have been fully active account in the same time. As you can see on the record for both,

[quote]Whu? Why do you reveal the map and not keep track of where the yellow stars are? [/quote] Have you trying playing the same gigantic game on few days? I can memorize where are the yellow stars for the first turns. At the beginning of a game I usually: - save the game - turn cheat code on - reveal the Map (CTRL + U) - get stellar cartography (CTL + SHIF + S for all tech) - analyse the map on the tactical screen (F9) If I like it, I reload the game and se

[quote]Some people start off by saving, enabling cheat keys to reveal the map, then reloading the save from before cheats were enabled. They don't consider it cheating since the AI already knows where the good planets are at the start.[/quote] I do that. And I still go to stellar cartography: it is easier for sending colony ships to yellow stars.

[quote]1. Is it possible to lower the speed for AI actions? Between my turns the AI ships are just moving way to fast for me to follow it. If they are in a battle I can't see who wins because it goes to fast. It's a bit annoying[/quote] Well, I can't really answer to this question since I turn off all options related to seeing AI battles. [quote]2. Is there some way to improve the range of my colony ships in the beginning of the game (not by research or special abilities) I star

I am aware of the following "double accounts" with metaverse score (account with 0 Mpts aren't a problem): - Passing Bye (ranked 5) - Guardians / Weyrleader (ranked 6) - Guardians. Maybe the most problematic one - Littlewotts (ranked 25) - Guardians /Littlewotts_ (ranked 156) - Guardians - Icho Tolot (ranked 20) - Jedi / Lord Admiral Altan (ranked 58) - Jedi - Mayito8888 (ranked 75) - Starfleet / Karyhorse (ranked 140) - Starfleet - Moser the Alchemist (ranked 10) - Aldarians

You can download it here http://www.stardock.com/products/sdcentral/ You need then to register Galciv and AP (with the correct serial Id, the GC serial will have GC1 in it), go the section associated with Games and process to download files.
