Not yet actually. Only quotes with the new author/post info on them have issues. If you remove that or just highlight the text to quote manually, it will use the old style.

{quote}

{quote}Blah, Blah, Blah{/quote}

Quoted response to Blah, Blah, Blah{/quote}

The above works but it you attempt to follow the above with another quote like the following.

{quote}

{quote}Blah, Blah, Blah{/quote}

Quoted response to Blah, Blah, Blah{/quote}

{quote}Blah2, Blah2, Blah2{/quote}

Then the initial {/quote} tag gets ignored and the entire sequence gets globbed into one giantic quote.

Also what's up with carriage returns? Someone must have set double space mode. And editing is very sporadic.

The forum changes are annoying but Like KP says I'm sure they'll get worked out. I find the bigger problem to be the takeover of forums.GalCiv2.com by Impulse and Off Topic forum posts cross posted from other now more popluar sites. There doesn't seem to be much we can do about this but I do encourage all GalCiv2 folks to try and weather the storm and hope for better times ahead.

Here they are:

Team A - 8 points    (6 base, 2 fastest team submission)

Team B - 9 points    [6 base, 2 individual fastest games (JustinSane & Ferrel), 1 individual score (JustinSane)]

Team C - 6 (6 base)

Team D - 12    [6 base, 2 average team speed, 1 individual score & 1 individual speed (KzintiPatriarch), 1 average team score, 1 average team submission]

Team E - 12    [6 base, 1 individual score & 1 individual speed (Neilo), 1 individual score (DethAdder), 1 average team speed, 2 average team score, ]

Congratulations to all the teams, and to Teams D & E for tying for first place for the round!

Sentient species taste better...

Thanks KP . I usually do a little checking and have an idea of the results, but I was flying blind this time  .

Oh yea. YAY! for the Eternal Villainy

Congratulations all.  Good fun and a learning experience as well.

The current standings for Season 3 of the League:

For future rounds I'll post screenshots of my entire spreadsheet.  I've got it so everything calculates automatically, including the season standings.

OK, the items on the Agenda are as follows:

Agenda Item #1: The Vice Commissioner Elections, currently I have accepted and approved the bids by Dystopic and JustinSane4 for the position of Vice Commissioner.  If any other individual that meets the requirements that I set forth (can only nominate themselves, and must have completed 2 full rounds in the MVL, Round 10 excluded) wants to place their bid, now is the time.  Otherwise, elections will begin later this week (maybe Thurs, definitely Friday at the latest)

Edit Agenda #2 will be backl later

I take it you revising what I saw posted earlier? It sounded well thought out and at first glance very workable.

so.....coming back to Agenda Item #2....

I want to get MVL members opinions as how to proceed with the MVL; with the GC forums in what seems to be continual upheaval (not necc. bad, just lack of stability); little or slow growth in amount of GC players due to no more expansions, and GC III not out this decade; and finally, the near constant 'bleeding' of players from our ranks...

i have four proposals

1) The status quo: we keep going just as we are, until whatever happens.

2) We dissolve the MVL on a high note, take pride that we accomplished something wonderful, and congratulate each other on a game well played.

3.) We add some minor changes, game selections, in the hopes of drumming up interest.

4.) Or, like the NinjaEdit proposal I had that DA saw briefly, we do a complete overhaul.

Thoughts?

I'll second what Loupdinour wrote.

Well im torn between 1 and 4. As i said earlier, in the MVL's current guise i wont be participating...due to SD and their "updates" but also i think we have taken the team "thing" to its zenith.

I would hate for the MVL to die slowly and just be forgotten but as the saying goes "it is best to go out whilst your on top". I know we are a bit past our "top" but to bow out now we could still go out with some dignity instead of dragging the carcass (damn SD not supporting FF anymore...there goes my spell checker..) of the MVl along for a few more rounds and it dying due to not enough support.

That said, i think 1 and 4 could go hand in hand....the MVL in its current form dies. But in it's place a more tournament style game, similar to what wyndstar was running originally....loosen the strings a little, take the team aspect out and open up the map sizes.....

I think the tourneys Wyndstar was running..and Purge too IIRC, would make for a good blueprint for a revised league. Throw in some of our rules/settings and we might have a winner.

If we do this now we at least have some numbers to give it a try...no point trying to fix the league when there is no-one left to play...

My two cents....
