It's obvious from the previous comments that some people are unfamiliar with basic terms necessary to understand the problems related. Let me elaborate on some of them: EROI (EROEI) - energy return on energy investment. It's a ratio that describes how many joules of energy you get per joule invested into the production. The higher, the better. Early oil fields had as much as 100:1. Current conventional oil is (roughly) estimated at 10:1. Nuclear energy is

Another interesting article about production decline: http://energyandmoney.blogspot.com/2011/06/can-norway-really-offset-oil-production.html 7.1% annual decline is really steep. The rosy analyses of IEA and such presume that manageable decline (so that world will hypothetically adapt) is up to 6 percent. It has been also found that when horizontal wells are used, the decline

There is no need to fear, wonderloss. If your so-called ineviteable victory ever comes, I will be first to congratulate you and commend you on your skillful play. I am not a sore loser, as some, I might add. However, as an old proverb says, let's not pull the pants down while the river is still out of sight.

BTW wonderloss, if you are still serious about a LA game, I would participate. I have never played a MP game in LA. Also, there is 3.27 patch for the game. What do we do, update or stay on 3.26 for this game? It's mainly bugfixes.

Wonderloss - I know you mean me, and I apologize for taking so long last few turns, but there are really some tough decisions and as a chess player, I am used to spending my allocated time to think all the options. You don't have to prolong the time allocation per move - at least not for me, I always have in mind the deadline and I think I won't ever forget to send the turn in time.

Flamewars aside, do you watch the current developments on the oil market? Recently, IEA (International Energy Agency) begged OPEC to increase production quota. The resulting OPEC meeting ended up with an argument and failure - while Saudi Arabia, as an obedient US puppet regime agreed to the increase, reading between the lines, the OPEC members are producing as much as they can - and don't want to admit that. Saudi Arabia said it will step up and increase production to fill the ga

Programming! Oh yes, on a sufficiently "high", abstracted level, it's a joy...

With the greatest sorrow, the Council and whole Hinnom kingdom mourns the passing of the Great Henan'el, who faced alone an overwhelming army of undead vine abominations that crawled out of the shades of the Pangaean jungles. During his life, he was like a shining star whose light was unbearable to mere mortals. In battle, he was like a tornado, like a living flame sowing death whenever he waded. Towering above the battlefields, his hand was firm and unwaveri

FYI - the server is down again. Every now and then, the processing ... process stops ... processing moves and issuing new turns. You can find out by checking the times and dates in your game: Last updated at 12:27 GMT on Wednesday June 15th Current time: 23:37 GMT Usually, those times are nearly identical.

BTW sorry, guys, I know that I am the last now, but my daughter is ill and I don't have the peace to go through the moves now. The game has become unbelievably complex, and requires a lot of consideration and focus - making a move takes more than an hour for me now. I don't need to extend the limit, I will definitely send my moves in time, but please note that I still need a few more hours (right now I am headed for work). Thanks for you patience.

Looking at the graphs, Pangaea obviously has a population boom problem that got way out of hand. In such cases, an external assistance is often required, and us, being good neighbors, are ready to step in and set things right.

"Once upon a time, there was a forest where animals lived together. Some went along peacefully, some fought or hunted others, but one day, a humans came to the forest to cut trees for lumber and burn the shrubs to turn them into fertile fields. The animals felt that the forest will never be the same again, but did not know what to do - humans had sharp tools and weapons that could kill at a distance. Fox was most coura

I have a Sovereign with 2 movement points. With Boots of travel, she should have 3. It was all okay, until I started to escort that woman from the "Daughter in distress" quest. When she was in my group, we had 1 MP (correct). After the Sovereign left the group, MP increased to 2, but should have 3. Unit card says 3, Info panel says 2, actual number of MP is 2.
