I'll sub the subs, i.e. I will probably be around to fill any last minute gaps.

People are offering personal training sessions over on the Discord channel, that might be worth checking out. Here is an invite: https://discord.gg/QHcSZEV You will also find all kind of discussions about the game there. The training sessions are offered in the organising-games thread by people like YerAnd (who is in the European timezone), Blues (US) and blackmagic (eastern US), you can also just ask. :-)

I am thinking about it, but I don't know whether I can be available for the full duration of the time. Prior experience has shown that being a sub equals playing the whole thing so ... [e digicons]:X[/e]

Also slightly of topic but @eviator you should definitely try multiplayer even if you don't always beat the AI on manager. The AI is pretty good, probably better than most humans who own the game.... so try MP and you might surprise yourself! :-)

Thanks! The problem only occurs on next_version. Running it wasn't a problem before, I guess there are changes that would make the versions incompatible. I have now reverted to the current version and it works like before.

After installing the patch today I noticed that both ranked 1v1 and 4p ffa were available. Only after chosing one or the other the menu isn't shown, just Mars spinning to the beautiful music. Wassup? edit: there is no error in the 'TachyonLog": [2016-05-16T20:09:23] Info : Tachyon : Initialize (Version: 1.9.2.510) for (2618, Mohawk Games, Offworld Trading Company, 1.1.13070.0)

I noticed one of the other AI's had 70 buildings and they *will* switch when buildings become unprofitable. So my guess would be: it was a very long game (12+ sols), the AI switched a lot of buildings and "bribe a claim" was part of the Black Market options.

Good to hear. [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]

I really, really like the Daily challenges feature as a learning tool to get back into the game. Esp the first days I could run the replays to see what other people do differently. Some of the replays worked, and some didn't download. Since a couple of days after release none worked. So you can imagine how glad I was to see it fixed in the patch according to the patch notes.... ...the sad thing is they still don't download for me. And if I may, can I suggest to add to

I must say I alsoenjoyed the original voices more. Zultar suggested yesterday that you could possibly create an option to play the game with the original TTS voices. I would LOVE such an option and would definitely use it.

Who is Mark Watney? And why do you eat his potatoes? [e digicons]:waaaa:[/e]

Excellent suggestions, I concur!

So many good ideas guys, I love it! @indczn1: I like the electromagnetic launching, how about calling it the Space Elevator? [e digicons]:grin:[/e] @duelKing: I like the idea of Book Scrubbing, but I think 0% interest is too OP, I would think it should be half the interest or something. Some other ideas: The Godfather: BM items are half the current price (because you are you) SpaceY: special buildings are cheaper to bui

When is the new patch released exactly? How will this interact with the tourney? Not quite a level playing field when it lands in the middle of a round imho. @Cubit, what would be a good time for you?

@UnbreakableDrew: if you ask Zultar, he is probably willing to stream your match.

C1ue00 and I will play 9PM CET today (might change depending on the availability of the casters).

@ c1ue00: I sent you a steam friend request as well

Cool, ok, so now the search begins: @c1ue00 I have sent you a twitch msg to see when we can play.

Today is the day! Finals! I absolutely [e digicons] PBhead: high energy, agressive, quick to judge and react, brilliant in the moment Zap: highly efficient, patient, makes use of all the knobs this game offers, long term brilliance You could argue the 1v1 set-up favours PB, making perhaps Zap the underdog. So ... I'd like to see Zap win this. (sorry PB) </

Ice condensors might be far more useful than you might think on Mars. Very recent research shows that Mars has many dust covered glaciers. The glaciers contain enough water ice to cover the entire surface of Mars in a 1 meter think layer of it! I write about this and more Spacey news like this as well as news about OTC on my blog http://spaceoddity.sgsgames.com

I absolutely [e digicons] ... and the "My Totally Correct Prediction" is one place above the absolute bottom. *insert dice icon here*

Our dance on Sunday had the following result: [video]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbgQhwTmw_I[/video] Game 1: [spoiler]DancingBogman[/spoiler] Game 2: [spoiler]SpaceOddity [/spoiler] Game 3: [spoiler]DancingBogman[/spoiler]

You'll hear about it monday morning then Leyla, I still hope he (yeah, prolly a he with that name) will visit your blog or this forum before that and know WHY I sent the Steam friend request out-of-the-blue. And thx for the rooting, I will need it! :D

@Zultar: I sent you a message via twitch earlier. I did not have contact with my opponent yet, since all I have is his steam handle and he/she hasn't accepted my friend request yet, but I would love to have you cast our game as well.
