I found a guy in Galaxy 2 who's LOADED in crystals (120k units on his home planet), and raided him twice already...
Spill... We need crystals too... :snigger:
I doubt it's got much left after I raped it, but the planets are in 2:296. They beloing to the player 'rev'. And yes, Deuteromeek is a deuterium storage planet :snigger:

Talk about Smart!... Just like that guy that named his planet: Deuterium Boy..
 
I call 7:320:8... sending a colony ship in about a half hour. Any issues?

No problem. It will be awhile before I set up another colony attempt. And certainly, not at 8. ^_^
 
7:321:4 was a bust. I'm gunning for 7:320:9 now. Hope no one else is going for it... will get there in 10 hours.
 
7:320:8... 152 fields ^_^
 
GWOH. 7:320:9 was a bust too. I'm on vacation mode now, will try again when I feel less frustrated.

Heh... I've decided to develop my colonies and once my points are going to be made out of *points* i'm going to try again and again for colonies over 200+. After all if i'll have a strong fleet it's going to be easier for me to gather resources.

Well, I've been lucky so far. I only had one really bad planet. Two if you could Skuld Retreat, which I have kept as a mining only planet. Hmm. Hild Realm for example, has 254 fields. Good thing too because it took like two days to get there.

Heh... I'll be searching for Avalon as soon as i get 300+ battleships and a moon *cause the costs for moving a fleet large enough to destroy 300 battleships are insanely large.

Anyway at the moment i have just two colonies that i'm not too satisfied of, if a favorable spot is released close enough i'm going to try and remove them. :huh.:

Okay, after getting hit hard by big fish in my home system, I really need a more isolated colony to stash my fleet/resources, somewhere that takes hopefully more than half an hour for another big fish to send 700 battleships to. So, :help: ?

A planet in the 4-6 position would be best, since I plan on pretty much shifting my main productions to there instead of my homeworld. Take your time in replying, my production schedual is backloged for over three more days.

Galaxy 7, we have a UBW system there, just find a 4 or a 5 near it.

Yeah, well, there's that guy from 7:302:5 who likes to check our system often. Not sure how safe our little community is. <_<

On a side note, a planet I colonized for a raiding base in the other end of Galaxy 1 turned out to be the biggest planet I have so far. :rolleyes: Granted, it's not that big (just 203), but it's the first time I've broken the 200 mark.

I probably should start colonizing more planets. That new one is only my sixth colony. Since I'm just building more and more defense in my main colonies, I've got plenty of resources to start a new colony.

Yup. I've seen him spying on us. AND, he is DEFINITELY one of the strong ones. In the meantime, I'll just keep building up my defenses. Maybe I'll get to a point where my defenses are so big, they won't even consider me as an easy target. Granted, can't say that to some of the huge big boys. Of course, you also have to factor in resources used, and from the looks of it, my places don't have that much. <_<

I just went on vacation mode. Not that I 'needed' to (i.e. I hasn't been attacked recently and didn't lose a fleet or tons of resources to piss me off.) but, I just need a break from ogame. Definitely a game that requires a lot of 'time' to work. And of course, a new year and a new 'hope' to get something done, can't spend it all on ogame now.

Hmm....i haven't gotten that bad luck to get only 50 spaces on a world...the worst what i got was with Khalai(1:345:14) on my home system...95 spaces...my homeworld has 165, my second in-system colony 125, and my outpost on galaxy 2 has two planets with 135 and 207 spaces respectively....now i'm sending colony ships to the outpost, and from there, attemp to colonize in 5:13...is empty, along with the following system....

A useful tactic is to, even if the colony attemp results bad, keep that colony as a staging point to store some resources, and "rest" other Colony ships, to try for the other key slots on the system. Once you got a planet with the desired amount of space, move all the resources into the new colony and blow the aborted colony....then, wait, and later attemp again to get a better result, but from the WAY more closer point of a fellow colony.....every speck of resources on the colony ships counts at the time of it's creation... :sisi: :ph43r: :sweat:

That's... Right next to my system...

HOW IN THE WORLD DID I MISS A SLOT 4 POSITION RIGHT NEXT TO MY SYSTEM????!!!!!!!

Oh, wait.... there's no open position? How...
Doh! You mean in some other galaxy right?

Yeah, I'm hiding out in galaxy 5.

Planet 4, netted me 315 fields.

I didn't even know they go that high. :huh:

sigh... finally got me a half decent colony, a position 5 planet with 183 fields... Not much compared to those monsters that some other people have gotten, but its the first colony I've got that passed the 150 mark...

Well I launched a colony ship to the UBW section of space coordinates 7:319:5 hopefully it nets me a decent number of fields not like my first colony which only had 54 fields and I'm already out of room on.
