Anyone know of either a good source for teaching Excel macros, or willing to help a fellow RBer out?

I'm proficient in just about everything else in Excel, but never learned this piece.

So as you all are probably aware I haven't been playing that long. One subject that continues to be a thorn in my side are enemy spies. How do you approach the situation? Do you use some constant level of spending, short burst, or ignore it? What seems to work best for you?

I usually just ignore it and take my lumps. It seems much cheaper to rebuild sabotage damage than paying for counterspies. I worry about tech steals though, the comp may be able to get a leg up on me that way sometimes.


Your thoughts?

After making a few observations, I think I should not sign up for any new games until I get my situation more organized. It might take a few days, it might take a few weeks, but I need some time to work some things out.

In the meantime I will do my best to keep up with my current responsibilities on this forum.

Thank you,
Tasunke

In the Democracy Game team TEAM is again in need of a replacement turn player, or someone available to play turns regularly when Tasunke can't as he is really busy at the moment. Things that you can expect include:
- An exciting and hot medieval war against the score leaders
- A chance to prove your fighting mettle against some of the best players on Realms Beyond
- The possibility of RB-immortality if you manage to blunt the Troll attack
- No chance of winning
- A turn every one or two days
It's a pitboss and this could be excellent experience for someone looking for MP-warfare practice. More than one player can get involved as this is a team game, but we do need someone who can play regularly.

Please check here for the forum: http://realmsbeyond.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?fid=49 I think T-hawk or BRick might need to give you access to the TEAM subforum.

Reply here or contact Tasunke if you are interested.

Hey all , Long time no see. I just wanted to make a public apology for missing the games that I signed up for due to just honestly getting lost in the work for the finals and just lack of responsibility. I apologize if this caused any wasting of your time and you guys mean a lot to me. Yes, you are just internet folk. But you have been there for me when I needed it. I am sorry for letting you down...

Please tell me that everyone else is watching these games. The 1 vs 1 duels have been hilarious (Cait vs Cait, Nunu vs Annie, Twitch vs Heimerdinger?!) and the team games have been incredibly exciting. If you've never watched the pro games before, this would be a fantastic time to start.
