Mine's probably more rubbish than yours. Mine's a 5-year-old Mac and I used iMovie 6. That's like such an old and outdated program. Which is why the clip isn't very clear. And SirEmi if possible, can you please change the title to 'Astro Galaxy, a space exploration game' to make filtering easier. I mean, I don't really expect anybody to search for 'Astro Galaxy', they'll probably search 'space exploration game' instead. Just saying Not sure if Youtube allows title changes though. Edited: And change the category from "People & Blogs" to "Gaming".

Nah, Star Wars Combine is much different. Star Wars Galaxies has retired anyway.
In fact, SWC is a browser game, like AG. You don't buy/download it so you can try it right away.

Well, once you've finished Mount and Blade, it's no more fun unless you download more 'mods' from the internet. Mods are nice as they give you a new challenge. But Mount and Blade is fun when you play singleplayer, as it almost feels like you're playing against real peeps. Although I think multiplayer sucks. I LOVE SWTOR! If you enjoy Star Wars games you might also want to try out Star Wars Combine, its rather similar to AG, except its far more complicated. Far far far more complicated. You might just want to read the Guide to understand how complicated it is. http://guide.swcombine.com/wiki/Main_PageOr check out the galaxy archives: http://holocron.swcombine.com/wiki/Main_Page

Feedback Terminal / Suggestions / Show numbering on the Top Corps page

Sometimes it gets rather difficult to tell what rank my corporation is as I have to count from top to bottom, so maybe you could put some numbers on the Top Corps page so that I can tell immediately what rank my corporation is at? Save me a few seconds?

I also think that perhaps the QP amounts you mentioned earlier seem a little high to me. QP's aren't exactly hard to come by once you understand the game and get your economy going but considering anyone with a ship power of over 150k could apply to be a mentor I would imagine there will be a lot of people applying to be a mentor as soon as they hit 150k power simply to try and get what they would consider really easy QP or even free QP. Those people might not necessarily be the best people to try and explain the in's and out's of the game. I myself am up over 500k power and I've been around for a fair bit (something like 3 or 4 months if you take out my 9 month abscense) and I'm still learning things about the game here and there. I would say maybe lower the QP amounts to make it less appealing to those who aren't necessarily qualified to give new players a detailed and smooth explaination of the game or raise the requirements to weed out those individuals.
I might also suggest adding a requirement that anyone applying to be a mentor have an account that is at least a month or two old. I mean if you really know what you are doing and are active you could probably get up to 150k power in two weeks or something like that but that doesn't really mean you know about what good strategies are for your economy or for combat later on. That isn't to say that people at 150k power don't know what they are doing, I'm not saying that at all so hopefully nobody reading this gets offended by that I'm just saying that you can build up power pretty easily if that is how you want to play the game (being combat oriented).
Yeah, I agree. I mean, I myself managed to hit 200k power thanks to gifted modules. So anybody who joins SSS or some other big corporation can become a mentor within a few days, even if they haven't understood the game properly yet. I mean, I'm already 200k power but I often make mistakes (like installing just the WHG and forgetting the FTL Drive, and then only realized I wasted so much fuel on a trip to Tau Ceti) I suggest maybe you could make mentor-wannabes take a sort of quiz with some randomly-generated questions to ensure they understand the game properly. Although I'm pretty sure within months some players will have collected a whole databank of all the possible questions, and cheaters could refer to the databank.

I play:
Star Wars Combine, a very complicated space game that took me a year to grasp just the basics. Cyber Nations, a nation simulation game. Itsagoal.com, a football management game. Cantr II, a roleplaying game. Chess.com, a chess website! Planetarium Footstar, a game where you are a pro footballer.
