Losing the points you've researched isn't that bad imo. Sure, it feels like you've wasted time but at the end of the day you get the tech quicker than you would have otherwise. In my games it seems like the best tech alliance is a 3-way, with one on weapons, another on speed and the third on scanning and range. This way you have no clashes with tech progress. At the start it's usually best for the player with the most science to go on speed or range (depending on the map) but before long weapons becomes most important, followed by speed. Later in the game you'll probably only want to focus on weapons, with a little bit of speed if you can spare the time.
Nooooooo! so the points will be burned? interesting. pity, but interesting. but i agree, its not that bad. its ur decision to research sth and to receive sth from ur allies, so points - and more importantly, TIME - burnt are ur own damn fault, so to speak. its alliance management at best. edit: ok, war has begun!

Shower of gits, go away for a couple of days and every neighbour turns against me. Xtrafresh your word is worth nothing! Rujak i hope you find a use for my presents.
I have no idea what you are talking about! I am a peaceful nation, and do not crave after other's stars. I was merely looking after your stars while you were away. I'll have you know they are in perfect condition!
And I thought I was going to go first. "Battles are won by slaughter and maneuver. The greater the general, the more he contributes in maneuver, the less he demands in slaughter."
