When you used to play Planetarion were you a multi? I wasn't at first from some strange belief I had that it was "wrong". After my first round though I always had a planet in a random galaxy, its sole purpose was to be my scan planet so I didn't have to spend valuable research and resources on scans. So, what did you use your other planets for??

I would ask this in Planetarion Discussions but they would just get all uppity and say they wouldn't dream of doing such a thing...

im now currently a scan planet, for whoever i "like"

and i generate resources for the good of the galaxy

I AM LIEK THE RED CROSS!!!!

Second post in a not-yet-moved thread

And yes. Though I 'didn't know it was wrong' at the start. Seriously.

KaneED · 14 Apr 2003, 11:59

I did, but that was when I first joined and didn't know the rules.

Also, I wanted to kill my best friend with my planets.

Radical Edward · 14 Apr 2003, 12:01

I had quite a lot of accounts when I was testing bot code. I never played more than one tho.

Ditcher · 14 Apr 2003, 15:28

Farm account in round6. Was quite common case in flttv side back then. Probably on the other side also?

Deffeh · 14 Apr 2003, 15:40

all but two accounts were automoatically closed within 10 ticks

lets just say it worked

I never farmed for some reason, I'm not sure why. I guess I just have more morals than I thought

Vanilla · 14 Apr 2003, 16:05

25 (yes 25) accounts in round 3.

I managed them well, paid attention to the politics in all of them and defended the people in my galaxy in all of them.

I never roided myself or used accounts to defend the other accounts or friends of other accounts, etc. Each account was kept seperate.

edit: in other words I was too bored with one account and just kept creating them. I landed in a lot of dull galaxies and some great ones with funny guys!

Nusselt · 14 Apr 2003, 16:08

'course i did

Embroglio · 14 Apr 2003, 16:14

I had about 17 or 18 accounts in r4. :/

roadrunner_0 · 14 Apr 2003, 16:23

never done it :/ tbh its probably cos i dont even really have the time for one (but dont tell starbucks that cos he is in my gal)

Kal_Zakath · 14 Apr 2003, 16:30

R3-5 multied (no more then 5 accounts, although I did also have login information for my friends 5 multi accounts...)

Snurx · 14 Apr 2003, 16:55

Yup, i did, back in round 3. I had 4 accounts, and that was just enough. But r2 and r4 i did not cheat in. Oh, and not the little i played in r5 either.

LHC · 14 Apr 2003, 17:03

round 2 - no
round 3 - yes
round 4 - no
round 5 - no

CjC · 14 Apr 2003, 17:07

I logged into an account of a "Multi" playing friend once. Does that count? We had hacked his multi planet (Well I say hacked he did use an obvious password!).

acropolis · 14 Apr 2003, 18:14

i had a pair at the end of 2, beginning of 3. i got bashed so much rnd 2 i started another in the hopes of ending up in a better gal. i had an account with both ~ beginning of round 3, and dropped the one where the galaxy wasn't doing so well.

a few weeks later i started roiding the galaxy i quit

yay me

Ulysses · 14 Apr 2003, 18:21

yes

But that was the only time I did, and as the round had effectively ended, it didn't matter a lot (imho) all the rest of the rounds no.

Although I was accused in r3 but proved that my two sons and I were playing when we all came online at the same time in the IRC channel.

JonnyBGood · 14 Apr 2003, 18:27

Round four I had three accounts, one of which i gave up after regging it to someone else. Didn't really do that much with them. I gave up my account to somebody else who wanted to play in r5 when I quit (I never figured out whether that was illegal or not actually). That's pretty much it I think.

Nodrog · 14 Apr 2003, 18:43

yes

If PA has given us two things, it's nod jokes regarding tarantulas and SL jokes regarding everything.
