SON OF A !!!!! I was gone for a day.....like 24 hours, and two bastards with like 10 H fighters and 5 S cargoes each waylaid my planet and destroyed 5 of my 15 light lasers and all of my fleet(I had like 5 S fighters and some S cargoes and multiple espi probes) and someone made off with my debris field those Batstards! my alliance is weak so I will most likely go without vengence.... If anyone is in uni 24 and feels like smackin' some [censored]s, go to 3:386:12 or 3:361:5 unless you are one of those planets

Well, not really that weird. I was engaged in bitter skirmish several weeks ago, when 2 separate fleets decimated my main base & fleet [40BS, 40CR]; there & then I knew I would have to relocate at least 1/3 of my planets into a remote galaxy, to have separate bases near our alliance's strongholds, so that they wouldn't be able to make another such strike. SInce then they're just spying on my planets that have been left behind, but I'll bet that they are also sweating now.

Ooh, yeah, I remember many months ago when I'd to relocate most of my colonies like that... only left my home planet behind (obviously). Now most of them are better developed than my main! Nanites take sooooo long to build. It's gonna be days/weeks before I get within spitting distance of Graviton.

Eek, at least you're beginning to ponder Graviton; me, I still have to sweat hard just for ing Plasma Turrets But at least other players are marrauding people & preparing for one serious retaliation... my role in that little drama will be felt, too, when a rain of IPBMs falls upon the heads of our enemies.

Plasmas are well worth the effort, though. As soon as I got them the number of probes coming by went down really sharply, and I haven't been raided on any planets that have them.
I think I'm gonna ditch my colony that I've been setting up for Graviton and instead use my slot 4. That way someone might decise to crash the 6k solar sats when I'm done with them, and that could mean a moon! ;D

Max is 20% chance. Got that from ogametips.com edit: Gotta love Nanites 3. 32s to make a solar sat! ;D edit2: Ouch... deleting the colony I was going to use for my shot at Graviton cost me 10 places in the rankings.

I've been playing on and off for the past 10 months in uni 9. i also started in uni 24, in uni 24 i have a fleet of about 40, 800 points, ranked 950 about. i already have a colony also. in uni 9 i finally have a fleet. in the past month i've gone from 50k points to 80 k points. i have a fleet of about 800. so i'm moving up in ogame.
I keep thinking about going for graviton, except i need to get my nanite up to level 3 or 4. and i'm also currently at war with about 35 alliances (it's a huge war, nothing much is happening htough) so i will probably get crashed as soon as i start.

Yeah, the PROTESF alliance was in Uni9, but it's long gone.

ok I've got a couple more newbish questions 1. How does newbie protection worked? because my neighboring planet just got it again after losing it
2. what does the "chance of counter espianoge" mean at the bottom of messages?

1. Newbie protection works depending on number of points you have; once you've reached certain leve it'll be removed and you will find yourself in cold, cruel space, surrounded by scum who's only intention is to RAID YOUR 2. Chance of CE is directly related to your Esp. Level and it means that, once it's high enough, you can successfuly spot and destroy enemy probes; sometimes, if your Esp. Lv is hugh enough, before they are able to send report to enemy. You might notice I'm angry... my main base got thrashed this morning - same assholes, same fleet I have contacted my buddie from alliance and he says he is making a DEATHSTAR soon... once we deal with the immediate threat we'll turn to those idiots and teach them a lesson or two in interstellar diplomacy [hop[efuly, for good]. edit: wtf, 'assholes' isn't censoerd ? ;D

Once you reach 5k points, no more newbie protection, which means you're fair game to anyone above you.

The remaining TESF members that I can think of offhand are myself, Zener, Karrak, Rego (Alter-Ego), T-Bone (Creeper), Lord Yawgmoth (Ninja Pirate), Dregas Volar and Xual (Dione The Breton). There may well be others I don't recognise too.

I'm afraid I don't have the authority to allow people into TLA. You need at least 100k points to join, or 5k if you're a TESF member

What a huge score difference. 100k to 5k. And I dont mean, let me in, I mean scare all the other people that try to join before me.

What level of involvement do TLA expect? I'm quite a serious turtle, and do like to do my own thing most of the time. I'd help out if need be, but I'm not a fleet player at all so I'd only be good for support.
Oh, and I have >250k points! ;D
