It happens. It's good you were able to find that many planet 4's, I'm usually not able to find any. I'd suggest destroying them one at a time, and resettling one at a time until you're happy iwth the mix.

6/7 people on right now!
and its kinda hard sending out two fleets to meet simultaneously, my attacking ships were on a different planet than my cargo ships, but the cargo ships are faster, so i had to wait....timed them so they are 20 mins apart in arriving at the planet being attacked, a little too far for my liking, but not far enough that id recall and start over
edit: search the statistics by alliances, and in the fleet and research categories everyone has zero

....its correct for the points category though, and im falling back...this is the first time ive been below average...3k below average
uh, are you sure about what you are doing syrik? after the battleships hit, about 70% of the defesnes are rebuilt...so the cargo ships 20 mintues later will be going on a suciide mission. you ahve tos end them all together.
I stilll have a TON o fmeatal to trade for crystal...so if you have any spare crystal negotiate a trade with me
wow bad luck skunk! but the 300 is arare gem...I don't even have a 300 field planet

I think my biggest is at about 250. anything less than 80 is not worth builidng on IMO
ewok, I'd suggest just resigning up in unvierse 3...you cna have more than 1 acount as long as they are in separate universes.
I just started researching Hyperspace Drive 4, woot.
Oh, and would anybody mind probing 2:200:11 (Krig7B or something like that)? I've sent dozens of probes, but all I can get are his resources, as my Espionage Tech is only level 4.
Wheee *has 3 finals today and hasn't slept in 24 hours* Just got back from the first one too =D
Anyways sent a probe there and got the following:
Resources on Krig7B [2:200:11] at 05-08 16:23:43
Metal: 103006 Crystal: 81605
Deuterium: 51696 Energy: 2745
Fleets
Defense
Rocket Launcher 60 Light Laser 49
Heavy Laser 19 Gauss Cannon 6
Ion Cannon 17 Large Shield Dome 1
Anti-Ballistic Missiles 10
Buildings
Metal Mine 17 Crystal Mine 17
Deuterium Synthesizer 13 Solar Plant 20
Fusion Reactor 1 Robotics Factory 10
Shipyard 7 Metal Storage 1
Crystal Storage 1 Deuterium Tank 1
Research Lab 7 Missile Silo 2
Construction on my new colonies going decent already have Metal/crystal/solar plant at lvl 11. Upgrading the metal to 12 then gonna start the solar plant to 12 right as a leave for my next final. Yeah for caffeine =D
Danke... I'ma have to actually build a fleet then
[EDIT] Looked past the defences and it turns out that this heavily defended planet has the same level mines as my current undefended farm. The only reason that this planet has so many (for me at least >_>

resources is that it is defended, so I'm giving up on it for now. I wanted a good farm in my solar system, but meh.
lol I'm sure there are less defended planets out there than that..I seriously need to start building a fleet soon but I want deathstars
skunk, you should really consider taking time off ogame for your finals

I'm done with finals for today now =D
Anyways how long does it take for the Planet Destroyed message to dissapear so you can recolonize?
I heard it's 24-48 hours

but the last time I destroyed a planet, it was taken over by some newb probably just joining the game before 24 hours was up! I thought it was eitehr 24 or 48 horus but I read somehwre destroyed planets become open somewhere in between that (random)
24 to 48 hours. Just set the colony ship to build as you destroy it, then wait a day before sending it.
Reaseraching intergalactic research net. Because it's useful, and relatively cheap now.
I have enough colony ships to recolonize planets it just I need the destroyed planets to go poofybye first ._.
