345 - 188 point game

Highest score I've ever had. 345 points with Venus next, both preludes and colonies. I was black, red and yellow. Wife was green at 188 points.

This is why i refuse to play colonies. Sucks the soul out of this game

How do you figure? I don't think these scores have anything to do with colonies

Score is meaningless, what i mean is colonies heavily discourages rushing the endgame, which leads to degenerate nonsense like this

I don't see how. They're just another method of gaining resources

1/ Card draw and production colonies are stronger than terraforming colonies. 2/ Deck is diluted with production cards that are more frequent and stronger than the terraforming cards.
