Sex offenders cannot play online multiplayer games in New York anymore.  Do we seriously need to start running petitions to protect our sex offenders from our own justice system?!

How do you think some of them become sex offenders in the first place?

Do you guys want a mini-update with highlights of grind, or would you rather wait for a full-sized update, knowing that it would take longer?

Either way, we need names! Currently, everyone wants the battleship, and a few have expressed interest in replacing the LOTUS. Don't worry about theme names for the battleship, just think of something impressive.

Open the pod bay doors, Tilla. Don't make me pull out your computing cores 

I think its best we just leave this thread alone in till we have a functioning Alpha of the game. Otherwise this thread will be nothing but Notch hate.

Nah. This thread is a place for information, screenshots, and stuff. It'll get much busier when some sort of alpha is realeased, but there's no reason for the thread to simply close in the meantime.

Sure, get Meatshield to evolve. If I remember correctly, Charizard is one of the top Pokemon in the game in terms of attack power, and Charmeleon is pretty up there as well.

And unless there's some other Pokemon along the way that is strong against water-type, get that Pikachu. Meatshield would be annihilated by Misty.

The only other one we can get that's effective against water types is an oddish, which we can't get until after nugget bridge.

What kind of pokemon do the Nugget Bridge trainers use? Bug and grass-types, right? Meatshield should be able to deal with them, and then we get an Oddish and an Eevee from Bill!

I have a question regarding player's engine habits. I typically build a first-gen series of ships using the low tech crappy engines. While these work, and allow me to start exploring, I never seem to get around to upgrading them once I get better engine tech unless they all get destroyed somehow.

Do you guys tend to build up engine technology before launching your first ships, or upgrade them later? What I'm thinking is, since research doesn't seem to have any costs other than time, you could wait until your engines are at least ion or so before designing, and not lose any minerals. The faster ships would get things done much more quickly, and chances are you'd have some other improved techs as well.

This is amazing!
