  • How about this?

    The story so far:

    Basically, we met PEACE (Pirates) early on, and traded with them, but this soured. We went to war with them in 2150, and by now they are almost completely defeated.
    The Hive are the most powerful faction, but have some internal problems. We are pacted with them, but we are not sure of their intentions. A lot of evidence points towards them having a permapact with the Drones though.
    The Drones are pacted with the Hive, and they basically act as one faction ATM. They are Planetary Governor, and are the second most powerful faction. They share an island with the Hive (we have our own). They've also probe raped PUT a while ago, so we don't have good relations with them at all.
    Recently we unified with the Planet University of Technology (PUT), doubling our power. However we are still weaker than the Hive-Drone alliance, who it looks like we'll have to be fighting in the future. A big challenge in other words, but that makes the game more fun, no?

    As for the make up of the Consciousness. Towards the end of every month, we hold nominations. We have four positions:
    Prime Function, who plays the turn.
    Second Function, who fills in for other officials and is responsible for Social Engineering.
    Internal Affairs Function, who gives the orders for formers/crawlers/builds and bases.
    External Affairs Function, who handles diplomacy and military units.
    All terms start on the 1st of each month, and last for that month.

    This is all a little daunting I'm sure, but feel free to ask any questions you wish, either in the "Welcome" thread, or by PM, or have a look at the latest PUT and CyCon turns you find in the turn report thread. And feel free to contribute to any discussion. We are very open about our policies.

    I hope you enjoy your stay.
    Btw, Drogue, have you authorized moomin already? He's been on the CyCon member list for a few days already.

    • Looks good

      And no. I checked my box at the weekend, and didn't see him there, and have no PM from him. Will check and PM him now if necessary, and authorise tonight.

          Hello Moomin.
          Since you actually make us the faction with most members I will throw a party.

            • Ouro_827 has applied for CPU membership. He has posted a few times already in AC-Multiplaying, so hopefully he won't become inactive as soon as he is authorized, and we'll have a new active member.

                    • I have authorised him, and am about to send a PM apologising about the wait. I have been ill, and then Valentine's Day, and so have not been able to be on much recently
