So can someone explain that Galaxy screen to me? This is what I see in the 209 galaxy...
galaxy.jpg

According to the key, the "i" means 7 days inactivity. But then by some of their names it says 30 minutes. SO are they inactive or what? I was going to build a small Cargo ship and see what I can steal but don't want to attack a "Strong" player and get killed right away. heh.

They were attacked 30 minutes, I dunno who would do such a thing ::whistles::

Go after Squallhai, he doesn't have any defences and no alliances.

yeah those guys with the 'i' is inactive and the time in parenthises is the last time action took place on that planet. That could be a building constructed, espionage or an attack. Since he's inactive that only leaves the latter two possibilities. And since he's inactive he's likely being raped by everyone else so someone probably just raided him 30 min ago

I would say build a cargo ship and grab your piece of the pie!!

Solar System: 209 shows me 3 idle targets, 2 Debris Fields, 4 Stronger players, 1 player who can attack you and a fellow guild member.

Oh, so the number in parenthesis doesn't mean that HE did something, it can mean that someone else did something to him.. That's what I was missing.

Thanks.

But I can't build ships yet so it will be a while. Of course I've been raided once already which sucks. *sigh*

Is there any way to loan stuff to others? I could really use some Deut and crystals to get to the cargo ship status.

w00t! first successful blind raid! Scored 1666 Metal, 1666 Crystal and 1666 Deut. Not bad for a first run. I needed the deut real bad.

Gonna need to build some more cargos to get my loot! Are light fighters worth it?

And what's good to research next? probes?

Um, after your cargo returns to base, how long do you have to wait before you can use it again?

My cargo should have arrived back home now (the returning message disappeared), but I don't see it on the fleet menu and my resources hasn't increased from my raid. :confused:

Hi yoyoyo! :beer:

Ok, I'll break my vow of AT silence to say "Hi" back ;)

I'm kind of taking a break from posting on AT.

Feb 18th was my 1 year anniversary since I really started posting. 17801 posts in 1 year :p

Nice to know there's somebody pretty close to me. I have no idea if I'm doing well or not. I guess I'll figure things out better once I have some ships ;)

I started
2006-02-20 05:38:15

and I'm up to 24 pts
Metal 7 Crystal 7 Deut 7 Solar 10 Robot 2 Shipyard 2 Research 1

I'm working on getting my research up to get my first cargo ship built. There are two idle players in my system so I hope I can mooch off them for a while :)

I seem to be getting attacked when I'm building stuff... but I have defence. This pisses me off... time to make a turtle shell!

Sorry to ask this noob question... but how is score calculated again?

I know I saw some info yesterday when looking through some threads somewhere, but I don't remember which forum it was on.

EDIT: I had better luck finding it here on my home computer than at the library computer lab ;)

http://www.ogame224.de/forum/thread.php?threadid=82868 <-- this accurate?

EDIT: Thanks potato28, is $ spent on research included too?

Its calculated by every thousand resources spent. As you get to higher levels, points come easier because of the costs.

Seconded. Please use this forum for circular messages. The message system in the game isn't that great.

Just to make sure, everytime someone attacks you, you will get a message notifying you what is coming and when it will arrive, right?
