In no particular order: Factory Town (early release) Mercury Fallen (early release) No Place Like Home (early release) Embark (early release) Going Medieval (closed beta) My Time at Portia Civ VI Space Haven (early release) Ticket to Ride lol, that is a lot of early release games! Oh well, having fun with pretty much all of them. And some of them sit for a while once the current build has been played and tested and waiting fo

[quote who="Martok" reply="19" id="3798881"] Quoting admiralWillyWilber, reply 18 The forums are organized well. I just think it can be done better. I strongly disagree with that assessment. The way the various forums and sub-forums are laid out, it tends to be a chore to find what you'r

[quote who="zabik222" reply="14" id="3798463"] Imho it is not reddit forums are competing, but rather discord. Another imho - for more active forums, there should be a better multiplayer support. Single player people come to forums, mostly when they encounter bugs. They rarely discuss stuff happening in the game (especially if there is no campaign). Multiplayer people are however a stronger backbone, as those people return to games more frequent, and therefore

It is listed as "Stardock Fences" not just "Fences", so perhaps look further down the list.

How are all these spam threads currently (Jan 2021) in this forum getting so many views? I can't believe people on these forums would fall for those kind of crappy tactics. Is it search engine spiders viewing them? Something else? Just kind of curious.

I bought: 'My Time in Portia' and just today... 'Ticket to Ride' and all of its DLC: Have the board game for it, and also own it on iOS. Nice that it offers cross-platform playing, now I can do a quick multiplayer turn at work on my PC, play on my iPad easily in the PM while watching tv or doing other things. And of course we play the board game itself at family gatherings. Great game!

[quote who="Iben" reply="7" id="3795300"] I use a program to write my message and then paste it into the box on the forum. It gets double spaced when I do this. I do this because I use my spell check and if the browser crashes I don't have to start over. I would request a single spacing when I paste. [/quote] You may want to look into the program you are using. I used notepad and it doesn't seem to set dou

They did keep updating it after release. And you should be able to go to your Stardock account page and download that most recent (still very old) version. It was brought to a level where it was no longer unplayable. I still wouldn't call it in great shape or a good game. But I did download and play it a bit about a year or two ago.

You had to have purchased it by a certain date. Depending on the date you bought it you got: 1) Fallen Enchantress for free 2) both Fallen Enchantress *and* Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes for free If I had to guess #2 was all pre-orders and some certain date after original launch. #1 was probably some time after the time from above extended out a bit longer. I don't recall what the exact dates were, that was like 8 or 9 years ago, wasn't it?

Actually contributing to a community, probably Usenet in the mid 90s, then Kali (the game matching service / chat program) around 97 or so.

[quote who="JuniorCrooks" reply="2" id="3753092"] I might go with Firefox or Opera but I do like that Chrome remembers your favorite sites, whatever computer I install it on I have my favorites in my favorites bar after signing in. [/quote] Firefox Sync has done this for years as well.

On one of my computers I use a 24" 1920x1200 and a 32" 2560x1440. So that is not only different resolutions, it is different aspect ratios as well (16:10 and 16:9). Can't help with the different refresh ratio side of your question. No problems!
