What should I do when I see another ship other than my own? See reader questions & answers on this topic! - Help others by sharing your knowledge Feepness - Concentrate on other systems, except hit the high fertility planets in your system at the same time. An enemy could breed on a class M ten times faster than on an iceball. Lestat - Yes. Keskiolut - Because you are a beginner, take your own system first. Neue Regel - Depends on how close the neighboring systems are. I try to go for the neighboring systems first and get a shuttle to my own planets after I have sent out 2 or 3 s's to the other systems. If systems are very close (< 10K) it would probably be better to get those first shuttles to your own planets. Don't forget to build a telescope and check out your own planets. This can save you a lot of time by not having to go to every planet. Garfel - Both if possible. Colonize only the best planets of your own system, like those over 40% compatibility and go fast to the nearest systems! Cylons - Try to colonize your own system first, and establish a good population base and fleet. Throughout the beginning, you may talk confidentially to other players, or publicly to everyone. If you can get a crypt set up with another player, feel free to ask questions. Also, God is an experienced player who can give advice, but don't run to him before trying to figure it out on your own. Otherwise he'd be swamped. It's good to establish friendly relations with other players, and even better ones with races who are in a position to mess with you. Try to get on peoples' good side. Even if you are going to backstab them. :-) Thing - Do both. Use one ship to colonize the planets in your star. Use a telescope to save time by aiming it at the planets and seeing if you can live on them. Use your remaining ships to colonize the nearest stars to you. Muu - Generally, get as much population as possible. Cover your homeworld as soon as possible. And build Domes(Y's) on a few sectors to get their efficiency up(which affects resource production). Fnebish Legion - Use a telescope to check out the planets in your system if you have the tech to do it. Colonize those you are compatible with, but always send your first dozen or so ships out of system so they can get a head start on the race with the other players to arrive at and colonize unpopulated systems. If waiting to colonize your planets allows some other race to sneak in, odds are it will be quite easy for you to kick that player out since you will have the resources nearby to build the necessary ships to do it. This is a last resort of course, since you should always ally with your neighbors if at all possible. Microbians - Contrary to most of the advice I've been given, I usually colonize my home system first. It costs less in time, and after you colonize your home, you can use the same ships to arrive at other systems. Tribbles - BOTH! You start off colonizing your planet until you get enough tech to build speed 6-7 shuttles. Then use upgrade (cs into ship scope have resources on ship and use "upg speed 7"). When you can do this then send some shuttles to other systems. When you can build explorers, do so and send them to other systems. An awesome race would have the ability to skip shuttles, go to explorers and thus explore out space the same time as it colonizes its home planets, but it's risky even for experienced players. NB - Colonize your own system quickly! Arriving in other systems early is fine if you can build some speed 9 shuttles to zip to the nearest stars, but hyperdrive will arrive before your slower shuttles reach places much further than a star or two away. If you're a 'morph, of course, you should be firing off pods from the very first updates! TheCulture - I'd say focus on the other systems. The primitive ship types (pod, shuttle) move slowly, so you have to be fast if you want to make it to the best spots before anyone else does. You'll always have time later to focus on your own system. Froos - Do your own first. Easier and faster and it'll give you additional supplies to conquer other systems with. Griffons - The latter, the more territory that you can gain early the more that you will not have to fight over later Pillarian - Again everything is relative.. But my answer would be YES! You should colonize your system first. You must at least devote your first inter- scope ship to the task.. then work out from there.. if you have close neighbors.. and they get to you first.. and you haven't colonized your system, you could be inviting disaster. Tao - I'd say it depends on what kind of planets you've got. If you have great planets in your own system (the telescope!), send the first ones there. Otherwise sort of divide your forces... Empire - IMHO, colonize your planets first before somebody else do it... Link Baker - Everybody should have their own strategy regarding this. Greenies - Usually the competition for other systems doesn't happen for a while. Definitely go for your own system first. Zurgithian - Both at the same time, pods are cheap in res so if you have a high metabolism you can send out lots and lots. After the first 10-20 updates you should have podded all the systems within 100000 dist of you, if you have the time !

This is a system that has worked well for me for overall weight loss and fitness, and several friends have also been successful with it.1. Eat three nutritious meals and three snacks everyday. Cut out junk food. You probably need about 1500 to 1800 calories a day. Many people make the mistake of not eating enough when they try to lose weight and then become discouraged.2. Drink lots of water at least 8 big glasses as day. Lots of water is essential. Stop drinking soda and other drinks with useless calories. Eat fresh fruit instead of fruit juices the juices are very high in calories.3. Begin a simple weight lifting program at home or at a gym. Ordinary household items (tins of soup, for example) can actually serve as weights for beginners. Buy yourself a good weight lifting book for women. Actually the dummies series of books has done a rather good one.4. Walk, walk, walk. Buy yourself a pedometer and aim for 10,000 steps a day.5. Record everything you eat and all your exercise to make sure you have a calorie deficit . Two of the sites I've included will help you do that. Basically buring more calories than you take in leads to weight loss. You need a deficit of 3500 calories to lose one pound.6. If you drive, do less of it and park at the back of the parking lot instead of close to the door. Always use stairs never the elevator or escalator.7. A mini stepper is an easy piece to equipment to have at home and gives great results. I bought mine at a second hand store for $4. even if you use it for a minute or two several times a day it can make a big difference.I hope these thoughts help. You can do this. Good luck with it.
