Stepping Down from the Hive

[Nubclear]

Due to recent information I have recieved, I am no longer fit to play the ACDG as it would give certain factions a (dis)advantage.

But dont worry, I'll still hand around the AC-Democracy forums

An honourable move Tass. Perhaps, after his work on the CNN in ACDG 1, we might be able to give Tass the job of Official Historian? Like Trip in the PtW ACDG? Just an idea, what do others (especially Tass) think?

I'd love that.

I agree. We are proud of you Tass for being honest and truthful for the spirit of the game.

[Vev]

Just make sure it is funny Tass. A dull list of events makes not good reading.

[Googlie]

If factions are agreeable I could deputize Tass as an Assistant God

(Assistant God anagrams to Tass isn't a God, BTW)



Very helpful when I'm on vacation, and generally another head to bounce ideas off - I could share the starting map and passwords with him, and while he's writing the Official History of ACDG-2 I can continue with my View from Above Progenitors' angle.

What do others think (and Tass, especially)????

(For now. Once I become assistant...)

Yeah, definately!

Do you have any Online Instant Messengers?

Does one step down? from the Hive?

Is this related to the now imfamous 'Elias Howe Day Purge' of the Hive (actually conducted over 3 days and known by some as '3 Days in July') that Googlie proclaimed in the Turn Thread? Apparently it takes three days to edit out all of Tass's posts and all references to Tass from the ACDG areas (and we can all only imagine how many posts Tass made in the internal Hive forum). After this, Tass will not exist in the ACDG forum and will never have existed. Long live Tass!

Unfortunately (or fortunately if you prefer), much of this post will not exist either.

Wasn't Tass another 'news' organ, a counterpart to Pravda in the USSR? Like one was the government thing and the other the party?

Itar-Tass is what your thinking about

And..hmm.....I could write the history in 3 forms:

1. News Organization ("Today, President Drogue and Chairman Voltaire announced that they would be exchanging reproduction technology. The deal, nicknamed 'The Claire Forlani Exchange', would be ratified by the Peoples Assembly Council of the Human Hive and the Blahblah Council of the Cybernetic Conciousness tomorrow.")
2. Progressive Story ("Die.....Ugh...." Said Forman Whatshisname, as his jet-black weapon was pryed from his cold, dead fingers.")
3. Bibleish ("And the Lord Drogue came down forth from the fields of Droguesville, and embraced Mistress Forlani.")
4. Boring history ("Year 4092606 - University Builds Moscow. Year 4092607 -Chairman Voltaire steps down as Chairman of the Human Hive.")
5. Some odd combination of it all

Which would be best? Which do the PEOPLE prefer?

After much pestering from Tass I will have to go with one, but all of them sound good...

No Tass you have to write in at least two styles. Giving up 4 of the 5 ways of us benefiting from your creativity is too great of a loss. Did you think being an assistant god is an easy job? You don't normally sleep anyway, do you?

Am I the only one who doesn't understand at all what's going on and why?

[Flubber]

Nope-- I have no idea either except for the things you quoted
