I tried playing blue against his red, but wasn't able to hide my planets well enough. I still think it's possbile, but just went red the next two times and beat him both.

K3,
I think it should be possible too. If you had to tweak some game settings to make a balanced red/blue solo game, what would you do? I think that more turns tends to favor the red. The more turns the red has per day, the more turns they have for pure cashing after getting things setup. Or, rather, the more turns they have to grid/explore after making enough cash to keep well ahead of the blue.

I might be willing to get in to a one on one with K3 if only to have my Butt handed to me on a platter although

Playing against K3, I fully expect to have my Butt handed to me, with some flowers and note reading "Please Play again [:D]..."
On the flip side, I love a challenge and never have a problem with losing to someone like K3.

I learned this from corp wars. The way to beat k3 is by paging him. This will piss him off so bad that he'll screw up big time.

Vader was a gracious host. He was always there when we needed him... to rebang games, to log us in simultaneously for equal turn accrual, a shoulder to cry on.[;)]

Major props Vader.

Yes Vader you are one of the best sysops around and I hope to someday get that good as well, you and a few others are how I judge myself, by thinking what would they do with this edit. You and a few others are my inspiration for getting my edits right or not at all. Thanks for having great games and edits to work with and learn from.
