Chris62: I was just going to ask about that. Why the dislike of Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri?
Ming: It is weird, I like Civ, but hate SMAC. It's too dark, and doesn't have the same “replay” value. I find Civ to be far better. Plus, Rah and I found Civ first.

Chris62: Yet I know you dislike Civ scenarios as well, any reason for that?
Ming: I've played very few scenarios, I prefer the challenges (OCC, Despotism Challenge, No build city Challenge…)

Chirs62: You still find time to play S[ingle] P[layer]?
Ming: Not anymore, only M[ultiplayer]. I will play Single Player in MP mode to test things, but that's about it now. If I play SP it is CivIII.

Chris62: Lets talk a little about sci-fi literature, something I also enjoy. Favorite author?
Ming: Too many "favorites"… I've met many.

Chris62: Ha ha have you? Mention a few, we all love name dropping!
Ming: Asimov, Herbert, Heinlein, Dickson, Zelazny, Zahn, Phol, Halderman, oh, so many.

Chris62: A few are sadly gone now
Ming: Notice I mentioned the dead ones first.
