Neptune's Bountiful Pride 3

Recommended Posts

This may be a crazy idea, but since we're only sending messages through the game, maybe we could set up Twitter accounts with our aliases. That way we'll have an alternate method of communication since I, and maybe

some other people, can't view the game while we are away from home.

We could send them to Murdoc and he could post them here.

Hahaha, that's hilarious. I'm totally down for that. Would most of us participate?

This game filled up a few days ago, but there might be more people looking to start a new one.

Do we have any forensic linguists in the house? I'm sure all communications now will be studied and analyzed greatly as we all try to identify each other. :shifty::shifty:

the twitter accounts are actually a pretty good idea compared to just sending messages through me, hehe.

But yeah, if anyone sets anything up with their alias just forward it to me and I'll post it on the site to keep the animosity.

Also I really curious what the spiral galaxy feels like when playing.

I'm up for a twitter account. The tactical nature of it is a bit lost though if everyone can read it.

Let's have a fun game all, and I hope everyone plays till the end :)

P.S. I could stare at that beautiful star-hole all night long. FOR ALGIEBA!

You can send direct messages with twitter so you can keep things private.

Btw, thanks for doing all the extra work Murdoc.

That's not really an issue; just don't publicly share any information that you wouldn't want everyone to be able to read. That's already true in the in-game chat.

Some of the names are absolutely fantastic by the way. Whoever came up with TopHat McBlastyPants is a fucking genius.

Boy, out of all the features I think Neptune's Pride should incorporate, I'm now dying for a freaking Spectator Mode, and if they do add it, they don't charge us for it(or much anyway, lol)

I'm curious how long it will be before someone crosses onto another person's coil...

Hey, once you guys have taken at least three stars would it be possible to get sent a screenshot of the mini map for a bunch of you and I'll try to composite one together in order to hide the identities?

Thanks!

We could also just post those directly to Twitter, since the Twitter names are already anonymous. You could then composite them together from there. Or not!

Cool Nowak, didn't know that existed!

Also never mind about the screenshot, folks, someone was nice enough to have a super huge monitor and do it all at once.

I guess it's worth linking to

Not all that interesting to outside spectators, but it does give a general idea for how the flow of the game will go.

Oh, right! It would be cool if somebody kept screenshots of those once every five or six days or so, so we can assemble them into big panorama-like graphics at the end, since they only show the last seven days of data at any one time and everything older than that is lost.

This could be the best-documented game of Neptune's Pride ever!

It's cool do see that you guys are still really into this. Kudos to you for sticking with it so that you can really explore everything it has to offer.

Buttersnaps seems to have the edge with military and a few players are lagging behind with a star count of 1 opposed to 3.

My real computer broke, and I've been out all day. Bad circumstances.

Way to out yourself :shifty:

And spiral galaxy is weird, but I think a lot of the weirdness comes from the slow one planet start. Once people start expanding towards the centre and start developing range to be able to cross, I think things are going to get really interesting.
