I just took another planet. Maybe I should drop the Charcoal Diamond and get a Monolith to increase my culture (lvl 22) to get more planets quicker.
I'm currently working on Alpha Cor Scorpii where my ally Jerry and I are taking out xBlubx. hehe <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::marine::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/marine.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='marine.gif'><!--endemo-->

Holy ****! Some waterhouse guy just came and libetied 2 of my planets and offered to crush my opponents. You dont expect such things normally <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> He came out of nowhere
olololol I just logged out then logged back in and I had a new victory message, it said I was victoorous at a planet I've had under siege for awhile but this time it gave me 87 exp, apparently he saved up alot of PP then upgraded the starbase to like lvl 8 so I got uber exp and only lost like 20 destroyers any way olol. hehehe more supply units <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
err wait.... he hasn't been on for 4 hours... and this just happened a few seconds ago... wth? I never got any warning of a group of ships inbound for the besieged planet.... WTH? oh well can't argue with the useful ness of 3 supply units.
okay the general jist of my problems: theres a guy attacking me attacking all 4 planets at once... i cant upgrade enough starbases with the money i have to stop him... but i have one supply unit that im selling, and ive conquered two more planets, and it says i have 4/5 SU, with -1 on orders... i want to SELL MORE... but it wont let me or something
if i got money [when does 2 am GMT come around?! has it PASSED?!] i am going to buy enough starbase on my spend all points planet to stop invaders, then use rest of the money to buy fleet and go stop his attack on my other planets.
the problem is with selling the supply units...!
look at the screenshot...
i try and sell the new supply units, and put in all sorts of different numbers... 4... 3.... 1.... 4/5... etc.. and hit 'sell'. it just refreshes back to that screen, and nothing has changed!!!
okay, my whole account is SCREWED unless somebody wants to donate me 5000 A$... hell, any amount will help.
'eediot'
keep donating people...
the significant donations, if/when i survive, will get paid back from the Supply units that i have but cant sel
are you absolutely SURE?!?!
btw im at 60,-6
so if i lose, somebody send a huge fleet there to avenge me <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

Thats it sorry laddy, you cant sell any more until that one is sold. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd--> I should clarify even further that you can only make one order of one type per day.
You can sell SU's once. You can buy SU's once.
You can buy a type of artifact once. You can sell a type of artifact once.
Once you have pressed the OK sell button, that will be the final number of that item that you will be selling that day.
The new time is 3am or 03:00 GMT (changed cos of daylight savings.) And you are EST Australia eediot, so this occurs around 1pm or 13:00. So only 3 more hours son.
I recommend not finalizing your purchases/sales until the last time you log on before the trade. I usually get to check mine right up until it occurs so I never finalize until around 12:30pm my time or 2:30am GMT .
so now im screwed because theyre coming after the trade time, and i can only sell one SU. so instead of having ~6500 PP to throw at them, ill have 1500, which will do absolutely JACK ****.
somebody donate money to me... quatro, donate me 5000 plz

planets: [starbase]
1- 10 2- 9 3- 10 4- 10
i can spend all points to 1, and will get an extra 1700 PP to planet 1 before they attack
and i could use money from donations to build fleets and send them to worst planets to defend.
youve really <b>stuck by me</b> in my times of need!
what a joke. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd--> Eediot - as I have said before, we have to assess your chances of survival. And yours are pretty freakin slim. The chances of you winning are pretty much null. I cannot justify transfering pp's to you to translate into his exp points.
The problem with asking for money from your NS forumites is this - if you have to ask, your probably already dead. If you had say 50 battleships heading for one planet - then you would get that 25,000 astros sitting in my bank. But not with a blanket attack like that. You are dead, there is nothing anyone of us can do to save you.
When asking for things for free, you should realize that other people have no obligation to give you anything. Personally, I wasn't prepared to give the ~$15000 it'd take to save you, since I need the money, the money might not come back, and it was short notice. Don't feel bitter when you don't get anything for free, but rather feel extra appreciative when you do get something.
Not even sure why I'm telling you this, but i guess I may as well keep the thread going in the hopes that somebody decent will come to AW through NS and be my ally.
I'm abandoning all planets except the one i can spend all points to. I have enough to fend off his attack to that planet, and after that I'm going to regroup all of my fleets and start reclaiming all of my planets. Hopefully he does not have enough money to send fleets immediately after he claims it, or within the next few hours after invasion. I will look at his log in times and make an educated guess.
I will reclaim them one by one, sort of sweeping through.
This is will achieve, quite obviously, through my own money.
If you had donated money when I had asked, I would have had enough PP to buy enough fleets to match his when he sent them. My fleets could have made it in time to every planet. Add on to that a 10 starbase for every fleet, and i would be assured of victory and a lot of money to pay you all back.
In other news, SUs are too expensive. Why did I have to join when they were at $400?! At this rate they'll be at 2K soon. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

Everyone should be on pretty even ground then
Hopefully.
and wow, $1.882,70 for a SU, price must be skyrocketing because people are buying them cause its cheaper than to pay for 1 upgrade normaly
Unless some gang of players decide to stop him from winning by mass attacking him but then i suppose he might be too strong for that unless its the top few.
i want this round to be over so every1 can start afresh and i can start kicking butt
somebody lend me money... PLEASE
