If we were playing v1. You would had been dead many many times over now. I don't care what game mechanics your talking about in this version. If this was the same in v1 you'd be dead. This version is way past broke, its just plain screwed up, and your taking advantage of that.

Edited by T0yman - Please stop with the F-Bomb (edited out), I understand your frustration but that crosses the line. I give plenty of room from players and I don't like editing posts, please keep it civil.

Looks like some peeps don't understand the finer mechanics of the game. PIG only holds a player that *begins* to warp, not a player who is already in mid-warp (and still shows in sector) when planet arrives. Been that way since 1.03 at least.


Even if that were true, which I doubt since if we have time to get in and scan sector the IG should be locking up the enemy, it probably would not happen everytime.

The first time I was killed and never saw the message that someone entered my sector... that's when I left the game. It was 2002.

Now that I understand that my activity caused that message to be aborted, I still don't like it, but I did have my settings on to abort display on (space).

Xanos understands the mechanics and timing of this game very well. He reports bugs that he finds. This script, like I said was developed on a v1 server, then refined and created to run with a team.

Just because you've never seen or experienced or can't code like Xanos does, that does not mean this is a bug.

I don't use bugs, my team does not use bugs.

Anyone can turtle and build... we've taken out a defended base, and "own" the grid.

You've lost... be a gracious looser and admit it.

So if you think you won already why did bother to keep playing after we lost ONE base, that was weeks and weeks ago. How may deaths did u take trying to get one sector of UNshielded planets? So you learned from your mistake and now your corp won't try it again, not with so many deaths.

As a consequence you want to claim victory for taking unshielded planets weeks and weeks ago.

You just lost another gridder, you are knowingly or not using a bug. COME GET US. This is NOT gridwars it's tradewars. You want to call yourself a player but you are the one not playing the darned game your playing a different one. (griddy wars) We have a lot of resources a ton of planets and enough grid and ports to go on for years.

Make your move and quit trying to beg off, or call it what it is - STALE

I could ask you to do the same.. come take us out.. but you cannot. My team keeps going like the energizer bunny... they are not accepting a stalemate.

We have more deaths because we have been the aggressors this game. Anyone can sit safely in their bubble farming, that does not take skill.

If this game comes down to scoring, we're guessing we're getting points for successfully gridding against you. Stop us if you can.. or wave the "white flag".

This is a joke you just said what our corp has been saying for weeks now. That's the issue you can't kill us. But we can sure set you guys up to die. We really can't invade and neither can you. STALEMATE!!!!!!!!!!!!

BTW we can grid, but why, we have what we want now. We grid what we want and take what we want. The game is STALE- no- now it's actually getting moldy. Quit wasting our time.

The problem is it's taking advantage of this version being broken. You can call it what you want. Don't matter you're dead now. How bout we only hear from the people that are still alive. It's not right, it wouldn't be happening in V1 game. This version sucks and is broken.

That is why it is a stalemate, neither team can destroy the other. However, you got two pods today. Sooo if you want a stalemate, better hurry before you are out of players. LOL
Points? There is no point system. You destroy us or we destroy you. Making up rules does not make you the winner. You are not aggressors, you are gridding using a fairly safe script and exploiting a bug.
BTW, did I mention that our anti gridding script podded two of your players today. Reminds me of Mad's "Spy vs Spy. Back to the drawing board for you. LOL

Actually it's not your "TEAM" it's a bot master/script. I see your bunny is running out of batteries.

Once again silly, this game can't come down to "scoring" .. yes again your "Guessing" (wrong as usual) and we can but haven't bothered to grid as we want against yours. You can consider your self's stopped no flags required. as I told you weeks ago. it's a stalemate. I understand that lesser experience players need to go threw it a few times to get it... so there ya go.
