the Guardian Halls are in the Senate Halls right?


Yup.

How soon until you move into the top 3?


Well its my goal this month so hopefully in less than a week.

, this place has rather died down. I


Yea unfortunatly it has.I remember we used to go through 800 pages a day.Alot of which was stuff like itsy-bitsy spider.Not all of it were Guardians either.We had lots of posts from people of all different empires.

As for the night shift, if my memory was correct it was mainly littlewotts, who now has a job and cant spend hours at night on the forume, MC, Who is currently away doing something i've forgotten what though, and Greldon, who has a few RL problems recently.

Jaws The Wayfarer's score has been sinking like a stone since he stopped submitting (down to 860K from 1,200K), but the scores of Free Tibet, JaxomCA, & Amulek have remained the same.


Looks like Jaws was the only one who was hit by a recalc. I don't know why.

Good Morning Guardians. Anyone missing their left butt cheek?

Haven't seen damoose moosing around lately. As far as that goes, haven't seen much moosing around lately. Most of the activity seem to be taking place in other threads, including postings by Guardians.

Are we worn out, busy with real life, no longer interested. nothing to say? Pick one, add one.

cheers,
have a good day..

I think what is happening is what happens with almost any virtual community. Those that were instramental in starting and growing it also contriute to its slowdown and eventual dimise. Due to lots of circumstances, they are no longer here most of the time. The rest of us flit here and there with no real leader. They don't feel they can take the leadership position because this is all virtual and "belongs" to someone else, even if they don't show up much. Those who are restless move on to other empires where there is active leadership. Others just disappear. The early joiners don't see the comrades they interacted with when it started, so they drop out. The entrepreneurial start their own.

Anyone care to predict what will happen to Galactic Guardians?

Morning, Weyrleader

Are we worn out, busy with real life, no longer interested. nothing to say? Pick one, add one.


I'm still hanging in there. My RL job requires periods of me going on site, which curtails how much I can be on the forum during the day. So, my activity grows and wains in response. The last several weeks has been one of those "on-site" times. Also, I think that I have reached a point where I don't want to play GalCiv 5 times a week like I once did. So, that explains me - partially at least. I have more to discuss on this, but once again, it's time to get to work. I'll be checking in throughout the weekend. That's another part of it. The weekends have been dead around here (not even undead, just dead!).





                          
#14083  by Citizen littlewotts_ - 7/2/2004 9:19:28 AM

Well, I did have a dream about galciv last night. I played like 4 games. Perhaps it's a sign of things to come this weekend.

With summer coming on, I've been outside a lot more and it kills my forum time. While I was laid-off, I spent a lot of time around here. Terl used to post alot from work, but he's become rather busy there. I am curious to know what happend to GtR, MD, MC, and some of the the other who posted here. They did leave their email addresses at the SH, perhaps we should drop them a line and ask them come back?

Never hurt to try.

BOOM!! One more for honor and justice.

True, but one must take comfort that there are still a few old ones to haunt the place. Not like they all went away. A lot have, though.

I am busy with real life. The worker left for now but give me a list of things to do. I hope I can find time for a game or two soon. maybe one tonight.

                        
#14087  by Citizen Weyrleader - 7/2/2004 1:12:38 PM

I know that real life is , well, real life. I sent and email to those that I haven't seen in a while, including our leader . Hope he takes that in good humor.

True, but one must take comfort that there are still a few old ones to haunt the place. Not like they all went away. A lot have, though.


Gerakken is correct, there are still a few around, and we value you highly

I know that something I check in from work for a few moments between proposal writing and other inane things I am asked to do, but don't always post. So, there are probably some lurkers out there as well that we never see, but we can "feel" them

Unfortunately, Wehrleader I think that the Guardians are seeing the first signs of the malais that has hit every other 1st place empire. But as long as your emperor stays active, others will join and liven up the joint. The empires that really stagnated are the ones that lost their emperors.

                            
#14089  by Citizen littlewotts_ - 7/2/2004 2:32:56 PM

And here's a BOOM!! Gave a nice score boost too.

Great, Littlewotts. Hope to see you up on page 1 soon.

I think this is true. Since this is a virtual community, there is no real battleing for running an empire. Those that want to run one, start one. Those that want to interact do so in the empires that are alive and inteacting. Empiers die when the foundlings become engaged in other worthwhile activities and are not able to continue at the level of effort when they started.

As an example of this, lately there have been more Guardians posting in other threads then in their own hall. Why, because that is were the virtual life is.

If damoose were to spend all his time in the hall (heaven forbid ) then we would have quite a crowd here. Why, because damoose is a lot of fun to be around (remember to buy one of the Guardians special Yor armored butt protectors).

                            
#14092  by Veteran Gerakken - 7/2/2004 4:43:32 PM

Hey, don't worry. I will always be glad to keep you Guardians on your toes if you are getting worried that your empire is starting to show a bit of age. Afterall, Gerakken is a Force of the Metaverse, always dabbling here and there in the affairs of many empires.

Well, time for me to lay low for a few days. Until later, Guardians.

Evening Guardians!


Evening, GH. Hope your day went well.

                            
#14095  by Citizen Genghis Hank - 7/2/2004 5:07:07 PM

Evening, GH. Hope your day went well.


Thanks, it did Brought a new network install to conclusion. They are already talking about adding features, too. My kind of client. I would much rather be putting in new stuff than patching together old equiptment!

Hope you also had a fine day to end the week with.

                          
#14096  by Citizen Genghis Hank - 7/2/2004 5:15:41 PM

Well, with the long weekend here, and three of my brother Guardians in close support, it's time to begin my assult on the position being held by the Iron Paw.

I'll check in later.

                          
#14097  by Citizen Naqmir - 7/2/2004 5:35:29 PM

but don't always post.


I do this alot too so there is probably always a Guardian here at some point they just dont post.

                            
#14098  by Citizen littlewotts_ - 7/2/2004 5:54:02 PM

Great, Littlewotts. Hope to see you up on page 1 soon.


Thanks! I'll see what I can do.

Evening Guardians!
