*shrug*, some of the posts I've used to draw my conclusion were made out of were more than 2 weeks ago. Been watching for a while.

2 weeks also equals heaps of posts though. Just be proud you're in the only turn tracking thread that will probably require 10 to 20 volumes.

The Jamskites opened the door to their beloved leader. The rumors were true, he had died during one of his weekends of self indulgence. They stepped around the broken wine bottles and used syringes to find their leader in a comprising position. At least he died happy someone whispered as they woke up the three women in the room and got them out before they sobered up.
What will happen to us now? Who will protect us against the dreaded Dean Enigma? Uncertainty was written across every face in the room, except for Jamski's because he was dead. Everyone tugged at their rich clothes wondering whether the years of plenty were at an end, although Jamski didn't because his clothes weren't anywhere near him, and not the mention the fact that Jamski was dead.
We need to find a new leader, was the unspoken thought in each person's mind. They fervently hoped that they could find someone with the drive and vision to lead them.

What's this dreaded Dean Enigma BS? I'm not even atop the powerchart, Kody is.
BTW, it's Magi Enigma_Nova of the Nexus of Wisdom - not Dean Enigma of the University of Planet. I renamed it to give the faction more of an Enigma-like touch.

You're just pointing in our direction continously because you want to distract attention from your Chiron domination plans. Anyway isn't one of the things in diplomancy, to not be the common enemy that drives multiple opponents together.
You've always talked about how dangerous you are gameplay wise, and now you're actually playing on the diplomatic front too you're more dangerous than ever.

Here are my 'Chironian plans':
1. Rebuild infrastructure
2. Build impact or missile - rovers or interceptors (whatever's available)
3. Kill stuff
'Kill stuff' will probably start around 2135, to mutually honour a pact.
Kill stuff will most likely go:
1. PWN Slow turnplayers (PWN all else quickly)
2. PWN Kody (main opposition)
3. PWN everyone else, conquer victory

As you can clearly see Enigma's disaster is merely a sham.

Missile interceptors built before a turn 2135 war.
Also he had "Kill Kody" before he decided to edit and add "slower turn players"
I beseech this council to not listen to the madman Magi Engima, he admits he is obviously ploting the destruction of everyone else even as he stands there.

Start with Impact and work your way up!
And yes, I do intend to "PWND J00 N3WBZ". Who isn't intending on winning this game thoroughly?

Enigma could you upload the latest save file onto this forum so that we won't have to worry about fumbling around with email addresses and people getting online at the right time before being able to pass the turn on?

Oh, um, yes - here it is.
GeoModder: Do you think the suns would ever eclipse?
I think it's improbable, but it would be cool when it happened.
Maybe it would make native life kill formers or something.

Prolly take only like 10 minutes or so.
Someone do the physics.

I so am not going to look up the masses of the binary star system of alpha centuari then figure out their orbits around each other. It might also have to be followed by the calculations required for considering the rotation of the planet. This should probably take into account the radition given off by the sun and how it would affect the habitable zone of the system, the planet will need to have an orbit in the habitable zone of the system.
It'll take more far longer than 10 minutes I think. An sun on sun eclipse won't cause darkness, probably only a slight dimming of light, so it probably won't be anything spectacular.

1. Presume that Alpha Centauri A has the same angular diameter as the Sun on earth.
2. Presume it weighs the same, so that radius squared is proportional to period cubed
So since venus is at 4/9 AU,
then for a 5 AU binary star, that's 'bout 12 times the distance, 5.25 times the time to get across the disc.
You'd have like 25 minutes to transit the sun.
And for 40 AU, 20 times the time, you'd get a 1 hr 40 minute transit.
Consider that at 5AU, you'd have an extra 1/5 of time when part of Alpha Centauri B's disc overlaps A's disc, so that's 30 minutes.
For 40AU, it's 2.5 extra minutes and is negligible.
There, with simplifying assumptions it's over pretty quicky.
The eclipse would take between 20 and 120 minutes.

But I'm a good student of yours am I not?
Who knows if the two suns would rise again tomorrow?
