  1. NPO is a great alliance, I'm sure this is a prelude to wonderful things coming from this collaboration. o/ to Vanguard, it's been a pleasure.
  2. I was going to say, should have let Kurdanak post this since he needs the post count. I should have known better than to underestimate you. ​
  3. Wait, which one don't you declare war on?
  4. Man, I'm so bored, I looked at that picture and the first thing I thought was "Hey, I was just watching the episode where he puts those shorts on!"
  5. You can experiment with whatever else you like, but I think we can all agree that what Orbis sorely needs is for someone to run a nation on baseball income.
  6. The idea that ships are useless has little to do with the utility of blockades and much more to do with the ease of breaking them. This proposal does little to alter that dynamic, so as you said most people would split between storing most resources in the alliance bank and paying the extra to be able to militarize without waiting for bank dispensation. Ultimately, this will either add a tedious micromanagement aspect or an additional cost to be paid, without significantly altering the way warfare or resource management works outside of making extra work for bank handlers in times of war.
  7. Except that according to Clarke, the zero infra cities with wind power seemed to be doing okay. If zero infra means no power, that's something that should consistently apply no matter the type of power.
  8. Since power plants work on a system where they power a certain amount of infra, and nuke plants in particular have two tiers, it's possible that something in the city power algorithm wasn't set up to handle the edge case of 0 infra. The cities without power were the ones without wind plants, right?

    Religion

    I think arguing about societal norms differing over a thousand years misses the point, really. The Quran, and Muhammad's actions as he lived by it, are supposed to be the pinnacle of morality, the guidelines that everyone looks back on as they try to live their own lives. The argument that societal values have changed over time ignores the supposition that morality is absolute, that what Allah says is good must be good. Since Allah decreed (as Ibrahim pointed out) that Aisha was to be married to Muhammad, it is divine will that that happen. Either that is morally wrong, or it is morally right - and since it is Allah's will that it happen, it is clearly morally right. This, in my mind, is a far more troublesome issue. A lot of things can be forgiven when you simply say the people involved lived in different times (I've seen it said for things like the US founders having slaves, for instance), but divine morality is absolute and unchanging, so the values of then must be the values of now, which obviously renders a lot of things 'good' that are by modern standards unpalatable.
  10. This is sad news. I didn't know Digitizer, but I hope he's at peace now. My condolences go out to his family, and also to all those in our community who knew him and considered him a friend.
  11. You're pretty cool yourself. Props on making that my only move, btw. It's been an enjoyable fight, if slightly one sided ​
  12. If a missile is targeted towards a particular improvement type and there are none of that category in the target city, the system doesn't really know how to deal with that. http://i.imgur.com/iIKEHpL.png The missile isn't fired, but no notification is given regarding the nature of the problem either.
  13. You've used 'digression' multiple times where I think you meant 'discretion'. Just fyi.

  15. Well, I actually came here from PT. That's where SK had its presence, aside from a short lived stint on Ogame, and that most directly answered the title question so it's my vote. PT's been gone a while, though, and I've generally been active on (That terrible game that is totally irrelevant and I shouldn't be bringing it up anyways) (for certain definitions of 'active') although not in any relation to SK in any way.
