UoP, no question about it.

If similar types win do well should we have a repoll between those of the same types? Having even just two science buffs seems like too many IMHO.

**Drogue** · April 25, 2003, 10:23

If we get 3 Science ones I wouldm repoll, but if we get two that's ok IMHO. And I think we will get two.

**FlameFlash** · April 25, 2003, 10:39

/me shrugs.

I suppose that's all right... make it interesting having two science teams competing, I suppose.

**Drogue** · April 25, 2003, 10:50

That's what I thought, and the UoP are the only completely science faction. I always saw the consciousness as mroe utilitarian/sciency, and the data angels all about probing. But with the Hive in there to break it up, and maybe the priates to militarise the sea, it could be very interesting. I ahve to say I hate play as or against the pirates, as I have no idea how to combat a most sea faction, but it will be fun trying

If the Consciousness is chosen, do we use original SMAX rules, or mod it as is commonly done for matches? Personally, in all things, I favour going with defaults, as that was how it was tested and intended by the creators, but what do others think. I admit the CyCon are very hard with their steal tech, but the Hive are also very strong, and without the steal tech, the CyCon are a very weak faction.

You see, I'd want to join the pirates... I love them and their versatility (though their growth really sucks how I generally play them.)

I think we should go by the original SMAX rules with whatever modifications we made in the last game (like didn't we turn off random occurances and turn on look first?)

**Jamski** · April 25, 2003, 11:34

Defaults, IMHO, but I also hope not to see the CyCon in the game

I never have liked them - not even as opponents

Well, so far we've got the six factions we might be playing with...

I supose on a tie of the lower ones there'll need to be a revote on just them.

**Method** · April 25, 2003, 14:57

BTW, i'd be willing to join the university if not the cyborgs. either one, i don't care so much anymore.

"Open the escape pod bay doors, Sid."

Though I'm a bit late coming in, I'll go with Nautilus Pirates. I only wish there was such a thing as a sea sensor...

**Makahlua** · April 25, 2003, 18:40

Oh, I was the original Pirate voter just for reference (heee!

)

**spartak** · April 25, 2003, 18:53

UoP though I'll settle for Morgan.

Apparently not many extra votes since yesterday. This means that, for the moment, the three participating factions would be the Pirates, University and Consciousness, correct?

Everyone can still vote of course!
