watched the vid, very interesting!

A few points of constructive criticism though:
- Try to keep looking at the audience! You seemed to have the tendency to look in the direction of the ground, especially when you'd be walking from one end of the stage to the other. Looking at the audience will make your presentation much more direct (as in directed towards the audience) and help people keep their attention focussed on you!
- Try to breathe through your nose rather than your mouth, inhaling (and exhaling) deeply through the mouth gets picked up by the mic and amplified, and can become like an interference in your speech.

Just my 2 cents tongue hope you can incorporate them in your presentations to make them even better!


Again, want to stress the point I really enjoyed your presentation and found it quite interesting, especially the part about that company, Festo, that used those "novel toys" as you said to devolve back the knowledge into the products they produce, and the subsequent part about how the cerration of the feathers of owls is being employed to make airplanes a lot quieter.

Name: Fugu
Family: 6204
________

1. Best Leader
Kollop (Sailfish) 6204 - After Dangerous had abandoned us early in the round, this early draft turned out to be golden and set out to lead the winning fam through some of the best (and perhaps to some, including myself, most boring) diplo. Plus, he helped me on my first time pop banking tongue


2. Best Diplomat
Kollop, as mentioned above. Our relations page was filled with yellow >.<


3. Most honorable family
6193 for taking a beating like a man tongue.


4. Most dishonorable family
6208 for fig running in a no-attacks area (although followed closely by 6196 for not finishing planet payment).


5. Most tenacious family
I guess that would be 6200 with Aleph, fighting a war on 2 fronts.


6. Your favorite war
None that I really enjoyed, since I couldn't actively take place in any sad.


7. Best spellcasting empire
Wendy (Squawfish) 6204! Anyone who doesn't vote for her should have their heads checked (coincidentally, I'll do it for you for 50 USD, just sign my 15 page disclaimer!):
- she CPFF'd like crazy, being a thorn in the eye for many a attacker (especially Rest & co. from what I could keep track of in forums), keeping lists of all of them, as soon as they were cast and updating it as soon as they came in. A dreamteam together with Genipoo.
- she fried, grilled, roasted and cooked pop like a pro, and was a menace for every pop banker that dared to be in a fam that was warring us, keeping them down for days if need be!


8. Best agent opper empire
-


9. Most overrated player
DaDevilz 6200, was funny to keep track of his NW tongue.


10. Potential Star
I've heard good stuff about Rest 6208, active as hell and prepared to do the dirty stuff, even if he'd lose his spread every time to Genesis & Wendy.


11. Favorite forum poster
Aleph (6200) of course!


12. Best all around banker
Noir (NoirCavalry) 6208, for leading that incredible team of pop bankers and together buying out market for days!


13. Best all around resourcer
Arby3 (Gay Fish) 6204 - keeping Glue and me and the rest of the fam fed without having to rely on the market. Insane activity on him!


14. Best all around attacker
Genesis (Large Trout) 6204 - Did a great job attacking, basically cleared the spread of any attacker that'd even dare face us easily with the help of Wendy, and, together with the support attacker team of 6204 (kudos to them too!), won every single war we were in and got our fam to this size.


15. Best all around player
Kollop 6204 - for reasons named above!


16. Rounds Joker (why?)
Teddy, jumping all that fleet just to have no one to attack with it tongue


17. Biggest mistake of the round
The 6196 guys for napping us before the rape had started and consequently not finishing nap payment!


18. Favorite Family theme
FISH !!! (6204)
Sorry InSaNe, but I had to do it, WITH OR WITHOUT YOU.


19. Rate the round (1-10)
8 - Nice laid back round for me to finish my ic career with tongue

Some pretty large drops going on, especially on 93's side.

Orion (Jules Winnfield) has dropped the biggest amount: a whopping 30.7 mil nw! His figs have suffered badly, although his humongous amounts of ground are what's keeping his nw high and protecting his portals for the time being.

However, relatively, it's the infamous IC_Death (Winston Wolf) who takes the lead in losing as much nw as possible: a drop of 10.6mil nw, constituting 66.6% of the NW he had at the start of the war! This was the expected result when you have 2 attackers bashing your portals tongue.

On 04's side the biggest relative drop can be found in Nakushita  (Shark Fish), and the biggest absolute drop can be found with Genesis (Large Trout), although the latter is basically due to being that much larger than Nakushita, and mostly the result from fig running Orion. However, Nakushita has his own reasons for losing nw, namely the big bad Orion pounding his portals.



So now we have a stalemate, ladies and gentlemen: Genesis' figs vs Orion's ground.

I'll be keeping track of losses on individual levels, so it shouldn't matter to you as long as you know who the resourcers are.
