My research is medical-y, but I'm more a "how do cells work" kinda guy whose findings often have medical implications.  And yes, it works well with the home brewing - in fact, I run a city-wide yeast bank using the equipment I have access to in my lab.  Not to mention, beer helps deal with the stress of grad students & grant rejections...

EDIT: is there a setting I can change so after posting I'm returned to the thread, rather than to the forum?

I would think so - it's never done that to me, so I wouldn't know for sure where to even look for the setting.  I assume you've looked through you user account settings pretty thoroughly?  I'll see if I can find anything - it's a little tough adjusting after you've gotten used to the way vBulletin forum software does things.

I assume that means you're a PhD?  That would make two here that I know of - I wonder if there's more...

Okay, what you wanted was under Modify Profile>Look and Layout - I checked "Return to topics after posting by default", so you should be set, now.

reporting in as a bot.

AC is a cool game for many reasons, and I need projects to occupy myself sometimes. This place seems like a good place for them.

On the other hand, if you are a bot, I'm wondering if you'd be willing to use your superior speed to help reverse engineer certain parts of the game to help with modding.... :D

Last I checked, not a bot. But I have an appointment with the bioenhancement center later this week. I will let you know how it goes.

Please do.

And put on an avatar - there's plenty to choose from accessible from your user profile.  I hate having people running around the forum nekkid. ;)

Welcome, BTW.  How did you find us?

Success, want to see my special enhancement? Avatar up BUncle. Found via post on weplayciv.com which I found just about when it died while looking for vel's guide.

While that is the link I was looking for Yitzi when I found weplayciv.com, this is the one I found. Which is much more recent. Plus Vel has this to say about the other link:


Grrr....don't remind me 'bout the whole Chamberlain mess. Guy approaches me and wants to "incorporate my notes" into his own. [/size]Come to find out, he wrote a brief introduction and stuck it onto v. 3 of the guide, and then passed it off as a collaborative work. [/color][/size] Ah well...water under the bridge at this point. But the list is superb! -=Vel=-

Not a bot, but a drone.

Post four more times, and you're a citizen.  Sky's the limit, man. ;)

Thank you. Found a link on a German-speaking forum that praised this site as one of the few still active SMAC forums. It looked cute, so I signed up. ;)

As we approached we were confronted by the ruined splendor of Sparta Command. The true immensity of the place became instantly apparent as our Quantum Tank crunched over the rubble and parked next to a shattered bunker, but the extent of the destruction took weeks to assess. The shielded datacore had sustained several massive breaches and smoke still billowed from the numerous cannon ports. There were few signs of human life.
~ Lady Deirdre Skye ‘Our Secret War’
