Hello, Grand Admiral! (Or, according to your medals, Commodore.)

I know this a few pages old, but yes Matthew i agree with your postings about our little talk on the chat.
And yes, Alex and I agreed that sticking with the Centurions, but actually think we have talked about making openings for those members not meeting the requirements for the Centurions, anyways old story..
I loved those stories by the way

Drop in on the Pony anytime, Aaberg.
I'm in a bad mood today, so I don't have anything funny to say.

It was?
Why?
I'll never understand humans.
a failure day
a slow decay
as the edges fray
Bad day.
Sit. Stay.
| |
|
Lay
Stay
Pray
I must say!!!!
| |
|
|
|
lay= to place, to set aside, etc. Place your sorrows aside, stay focuse in the future ahead, pray for guidance and acknowledge that you are important.

The March 2004 activity of the participants in the Clone Wars broken down by empire and player is at  Link
It is a very interesting snapshot of the metaverse. FotR submitted 41 games from 10 players for 1.26 million points.

While Lothmorg submitted 123 games from 1 player for 7.38 million points.
Actually, the only thing that really disappointed me was the TriForces' failure to win in the Excelsior and Defiant categories. It means that my prophetic poem ( Link, post 820) didn't come true.

I had forgotten that great work. Good stuff Matthew. Now when is Lothmorg going to nail Greldon to the floor?
   
| |
|
I think he did it a couple of days back. Notice Greldon's post 1111 above? He's no longer capable of following this thread! Clear evidence of the sort of brain damage you'd get from having a nail hammered through your head!  
| |
|
Ah, he was like that to begin with.
Now, if he starts playing Cakewalk, that would be a clear sign of brain damage.

Welcome, DocAE and anyone else who's joined the Fellowship recently! We're now up to 90 players! We're also up to 1143 battles, the most of any empire - eat that, Canada! Now, if one or two of you would actually drop in on this thread and say Hi...

That sounds like another challenge
Care to take bets on when the Guardians pass you on that score...
   
| |
|
I reckon I could keep ahead of you by churning out fifty resignations a day.
| |
|
That should have a nice effect on your personal and empire standings.
| |
|
It would just mean sacrificing one month's score... And in that time I could rack up at least 1500 defeats, more than your entire empire.

People are behind on this thread? No way! (Gerakken says that after one of his Yor assistants zaps three weeks worth of Fellowship posts into his head.) Hmm. How do I summarize some of wide variety of topics? Oh, just arbitrary and semi-random selection I guess!
| The Metaverse needs an empire that can take on the magnificent Guardians, our closest friends, with their boundless energy, and grind them into the dirt. |
|
How about the pirate empire that eclipsed the Fellowship only to run into a bad spell and fall down claw our way back to the top, or at least back over the Fellowship once again? The Guardians are a harder target, though. But while the fires do burn strong in them, youth (as an empire in this case) has its follies. When they need to stop and rekindle the flame a bit, us determined pirates will be waiting.
Merger? Did someone actually say that bad word? Everyone knows mergers are bad unless the other guys are joining your empire. The Fellowship is a proud empire, at least it was the way I remember it. True, it too ran into a bad spell and some of the die hards here may have felt like the heart was ripped out of the empire with the ascension of the Guardians, but the Meta has always been a chaotic place. As a survivor of another empire that also felt like it had the heart ripped out of it once, I can say it is how you go on afterward that counts. What defines an empire? The star players who left for various reasons, or the ones who are still here? If an empire only keeps defining itself by who it lost, it knows not the value of who it has left and values even less who it may yet gain. The Guardians are doing good now, but the Fellowship can do better. It just has to start thinking like a winner.
Elections? Florida? Noooo! The sequal is coming up in November and I am praying it will not be worse, like 90% of movie sequals are. There is a reason that the Constitution gives the Electorial College the power to choose the President: it is because the founders thought the average voter was too uninformed and ill-educated to make such a weighty decision directly. The electors have just been way to willing to let the legislative and then (as in Florida 2000) the judicial branch call the shots over the years. What is going to happen when one day we get a decisive split in the popular vote in the modern era (like 55% to 45%) and the electors go against the grain? Or will they roll over and just make the legislatures and the judges sort it out again? Coming soon to a battleground state near you: the Great Mud Fest 2004. The pregame show is already proving to be a scorcher. The real deal should be brutal, because everybody else but one of the two sets of guys on the ticket lose.
Well, enough rambling from me. Good gaming, Fellowship and stay strong.
