So - looking through this thread, this game looks a lot like a more "real-time" version of "Galaxy".

Is that more or less accurate?

If you've never heard of Galaxy, it's a PBEM (Play By EMail) game, usually played at a rate of one or two turns per week. All the players email orders to the server, and get results when the turn runs (at some appointed time).

see http://www.cs.utk.edu/~bampton/ (the first two links) for more info

More or less. Turns are equal to a month in game time and occur every twenty minutes of real-time. Most actions/orders occur over a number of turns, ranging from a few months to a couple hundred months. Example, I one of my research projects will take 292 months to complete - in other words, 5840 minutes or a little over 4 days.

And the incredible amount of 3569 credits .

Red rover, red rover, send that population right over

[KeiFront]

3000 people happily cross the line

Just got some pop extra through a mission .

[Claymonkey]

Well, I've taken the plunge. Let us see if I can catch up at all. If not I'll learn what I'm doing and do some stomping next round.

[KeiFront]

Whisper us your planet name .

just created a planet:
smooth criminal of neverland
:P

[GNEP]

Just been attacked (massively) by Tartarus and (less impressively) by Crucio Station. Lost all 7 starbases but v. few ships, but this does mean I am rather vulnerable. Should I need to, is there any chance I could store pop on planets with spare capacity? I'm not at that stage by any means yet, but if this continues I will be... and with > 3.5mln population I'd quite like to protect that asset

Interestingly though, I've only gained prestige from these attacks so far...
