Congrats to schmiddi (and IglooDude and Naskra too). :)

There is some very exciting stuff in the works right now. If you have more links to cool advances they are always welcome. My congrats as well to Naskra. :)

:cool: F@H seems to have server problems more than you would think they should. They usually blame Stanford IT but who knows. My unsupported speculation is that they are great with proteins but perhaps not so great with servers. Good to see you back. :)

I plan to but was going to wait for some feedback first.

Work Units are of different sizes and complexities so that's usually not a meaningful way to measure your contribution. Each WU does have a credit points value though that is a more accurate method of tracking the value of your donation. Most hardware is measured in Points Per Day (PPD). I am...

What kind of PPD are you getting with that monster?

Here's the link: http://draginol.joeuser.com/article/322138/The_future_of_Galactic_Civilizations And of course the mentioned "unnamed fantasy strategy game" is Elemental.

GalCiv2 is a great game and being able to choose to design your own ships it can actually be more in-depth than Civ4 is. Lots of fun. :)

Welcome west india man! :dance: :band: [party] :bounce: :rockon: :banana: There is a new GPU3 client on the way that should streamline the current issues of AMD/ATI cards. :)

I disagree, a small sample can still reveal useful information and also be used to extrapolate data about a larger group. We have a sample of the most fanatical Civ players. That sample reveals 14% of that group expressing strong dissatisfaction to the point of not buying Civ5. As that sample...

Bold by me. Are you really saying the voters are liars? Is that how you are justifying ignoring the poll results. :lol: 14% of the 629 people who voted said "I will definitely NOT buy the game, because of Steam" and you claim that "doesn't say anything about how dissatisfied they are."...

We both are speculating. I provided data in support of my speculation, both a poll showing one in seven fanatics so disgusted that they refuse to buy, and a mention of the question of the monetary value of the lost loyalty of long-time customers (both now and for Civ6+). The launch of Civ4...

Yes, it is an older poll, but the numbers still illuminate a strong dissatisfaction. This forum is still divided over Steam and as I mentioned earlier it makes sense that people who won't buy because of Steam won't hang around this Civ5 sub-forum. I would claim the opposite of your statement...

Thanks for taking the time to post a well-reasoned and thought provoking argument. :) I do see now that the poll questions could have been phrased better and as you said some pro-Steam people like yourself could have (correctly) voted a "Steam-neutral" vote as Steam didn't influence your...

I'm not organizing a boycott or whatever. For my various personal reasons, of which Steam is only one, I have decided not to pay any of my money to 2K. I encourage others to think for themselves and to do what is best for their own personal reasons. I did find it interesting that anyone who...
