Re: cellular2j

It sounds like the person who set up the game failed to set the maximums for all other types to zero.

2 more needed for threats4x

Robotic Dracoids are programmed to seek and gather Artifacts of all kinds, and have the Collector's facility to receive and transfer them between fleets. With somewhat weakened Positronix combat abilities, they earn no points for fighting or killing. Able to sense thoughts and emotions at a distance...

rustic0k specialty game

HERE THERE BE DRACOIDS At least 3 more players are needed for rustic9k, to start the game in 5 weeks (on May 1). Most parameters are average. There is no limit to how many can play any of 13 races, including the new Dracoids and toned-down Telempaths. Please sign up at your earliest convenience! -- ...

Pandora's Box?

A funny thing happened on the way to World 42. When my fleet got there, the link back to the neighboring world where I started had disappeared and been replaced with a link to another world. That fleet is now Lost In Space, at a world with no links to any I know. That couldn't have been done by an A...

Re: drained4p needs one more player

The game could begin less than 3 weeks from now, if one more player joins. There will be a diverse mix of player types -- and 11 options are still available as of this morning, including the new Telempath race. If you have already signed up, please consider inviting other players to join what should...

drained4p needs one more player

Specialty game drained4p now has 14 players signed up -- one less than the 15 required to start the game on November 3. With an "absurdly high" number of worlds in a computer-generated map, there should be plenty of elbow room for all players, even if more join the game.

Unwritten Rules -- BEWARE!

In our current game, we've discovered a couple more significant rules embedded in the RSW software that could screw up your game if you run afoul of them. Beware! First, when I signed up for symmetry5p I included a question mark at the end of my game name. Don't do that! For some reason that confuse...

Re: SW players invade RSW - Welcome!

There is a Classic RSW game awaiting more players right now, so Starweb players can get into one easily. I'll invite some of my SW frenemies too, so maybe we can get the next game up to 15 players.

need 1 player to start lizard5e Swarm game

If you're qualified for specialty games, you can start lizard5e by joining now. You'll play 3 positions, with an unlimited choice of types -- except that there can be only one Swarm, me. You can have an all-Positronix team if you like, or any combination you desire. Whatever you do, I advise you to ...
