  • Orginization

    Forgive my arrogence in posting this on the first day of my acceptance into the University, but the sooner the better.

    Communications seem spotty, and the Hive is a huge threat as far as can be seen. An immediate meeting needs to take place by the Board Members and their underlings.

    A schedule of faculty and internal turn deadlines needs set, as well as backups. Example: I recommend if at 14 hours after the turn is posted, if the scheduled faculty member hasn't posted a confirmation on the private messageboard his backup will play the turn. If, after 20 hours, the scheduled player is still absent from the board the backup player should send in his turn. If the scheduled player makes an apperance between the 14 and 20 hour window, the scheduled players turn should be sent.

    I recommend irc, but any such thing will do. I place my recommendation for the next day or two.

    A serious resource boost has to happen in the next few years, or we will be left hopelessly behind. As the Hive is being fed tech, probably for protection, we cannot rely entirely on our tech gap to save us from the inevitable attack.

    The pirates will make invaluable allys, as they will be able to forewarn us of the incoming fleet, if we can trust in their communications. They could be easily bought off by the Hive unfortunately, as well as trading our research to the Angels (or whomever is supplying the Hive). They might not even know they are supplying the Hive if this train of thought is correct.

    If we could stake out the strip of land around the North and South poles and convoy resources, this would give us a substantial boost with little risk. A few bases, maybe even one for each pole, would suffice.

    I would also like to start a committe for researching and designing super-research facilities. I'd also like creating ravines for solar as well as nutrient resources by redirecting windfall patterns. I'm sure you are all aware of these tecniques.

    I have some serious concerns about the haphazard planting of bases as well. If we are relying on convoys for resources, we can use the spiked wheel / hub layout for our society, giving us better defences all the way around our borders.

    I look forwards to the information collaboration and meeting the rest of the University Faculty as soon as possable.

    Feel free to send me a digital message.

    I agree that we should get the turn playing more organized, especially since we have exceeded the 48 hour limit quite a few times in the past.

    We're currently building crawlers, with the plan to use them to convoy minerals. I think we will need to build a lot more formers, if plan to start building boreholes and condensors.

    I think the Hive is allied with the Drones, and knowing buster's reputation, they will be very difficult to overcome. We will most certainly need allies against them and we will need to become more active diplomatically.

    I'm afraid I'm not quite sure what you mean. Could you elaborate a bit?

    I have to say I'm not familiar with your technique. Do you mean raising a land ridge and using it as an energy park? I'm not very experienced with energy parks, and I rely more on condensor/farms and boreholes.

    I think the idea is to have the places closely packed and to use specialists to bring cash and tech. I proposed a plan to pop boom a bunch of bases to size five at the end of the decade, and to use specialists in these bases. I'm not sure what you mean with your base layout plan, though.

      Discussion on these topics should take place in a more reactive environs. Who's reading on these tonight? We should all meet on a chat program and discuss ideas in detail.

        That's not arrogance, that's activity - and activity is exactly what we need.

              You'd do better to start one on the apolyton server and call it something less generic, like #PUT, and maybe put a password on it.

                  Sorry for missing the chat meeting. I'll be sure to be at future meetings assuming I know about them ahead of time. I think this kind of kick start is just what our team needs.
