Hmm sensitive materials for Pravda, dicey.

Sorry about this mistake I'm trying to juggle a heap of things at once.

I had about 11 things I had to get done this morning related to the ACDG. Still working through the list at the moment. I started going through all these tasks about 3 hours ago.

I haven't even had time to spy on the logins of the other factions.

A history of the Hive "Hello" thread
On the 13 of June 2003 a bright eyed bushy tailed newbie signed up to apolyton as Kody.

"Announce thyself so I can spam!", declared his friend on MSN.
Badgered by his friend Kody made his first post in the Hive forum.

Kody titled it "Spam thread", and put a direct paste of his friend's desire to spam into the post. Kody then heard a grumble behind him where his friend was sitting and then a rather terse explanation of why that post was inappropriate.

After being berated the post title was changed to hello and the message to.

I was planning on lurking for a while, mainly while I reading all the posts that have already occurred. Also because I didn't want to make a complete fool of myself in my ignorance.

But *censored* badgered me into saying hello.

Kody

However, it was too late, the damage had been done. In the 1 minute during which the original post was available the chairman had seen it and proceeded to make 5 posts within 2 minutes in response. The chairman did a split post berating Kody's friend for wanting a thread to spam in. This set the precedent and the thread was forever made into a spam thread. Over the next 24 hours over half the hive had made over 70 post of spam with frequent split posting to maximise post count.

When the hello thread had reached over 100 posts Jamski started threatening to shoot anyone that continued to post to it. This had the opposite affect that he intended. Posting actually increased as the hive asserted it's god given right to spam. Jamski worked his way up from normal font to size=5 font and bold in his efforts to kill the thread.

For a while after Jamski was captured for his house painting episode the activity in the hello thread died down. Until Googlie decided to post updates of Alinestra Covelia possibly joining the hive. The hello thread had gained a new purpose, a thread to have small talk. Many important issues were discussed in the hello thread such as; Alinestra Covelia joining the hive, getting to emperor, how to play the industry game, singing, dancing, Kody's unusually high movement rate, installing SMAX, editing other people posts wars, and what a large mass of spam the hello thread was.

Rokossovky was able to sum up the contents of the thread in one line.

My God, after finally reading this thread I've found that it REALLY is nothing but complete useless spam amazing insight into SMAX.

At this time the hello thread is currently sitting at 270 posts and 1148 views.

And still counting.

We should have a fastest turn competition.

Basically keep a tally of how long factions take to do their turns, and post the results into Pravda.

Hive Discovers Fountain of Youth

The glorious, intrepid explorers of the Hive have discovered one of humanity's greatest dream, the Fountain of Youth. Legends of this Fountain dates back as far as anyone who wished for everlasting beauty and life. Gold-seeking expeditions in the Americas during the 15th century brought back tales of people who had found the legendary fountain of youth. Well now, the Hive has the real deal no longer shall anyone suffer under the cruel destiny of sagging skin and ailing health.

Currently Hive scientists are conducting experiments to determine full potential of this amazing resource and understanding how and why it works. Once the research is completed all of Hive will be given the oppotunity to regain their lustrious youth. Already, brave Hive Party members have volunteered to test the fountain to deem whether it is safe for public use. Godspeed PAC members and and may Googliegod preserve you.

Rumors that this fountain is a diversion to cover up the fact that the Hive is developing PlanetSpammer is completely false.

Thank you dear comrades! Just in time for my little retreat. (Why do they have to put a party hat on everysmiles?)
Please don't reveal the geographic location to the public though because I was afraid that I will not get any peace as I desired.

IT'S PARTY TIME AT APOLYTON

[Haon]

ANCIENT DOCUMENTS RECOVERED! MANIFEST DESTINY OF THE HUMAN HIVE BECOMES CLEAR!

Miners working under the direction of Comrade Haon, on a patch of land near [CENSORED] base, have uncovered a document of great significance, an origianl leather bound copy, of "Quotations from Chairman Mao Tse-Tung", the famous Little Red Book! A First Edition English version from 1966!

This ancient text is believed to have been on board the Unity, and that it somehow survived the break up of the craft! Its in near perfect condition, and will placed in The Hive's historical vault for the safety of the book.

This is seen as a GLORIOUS omen for The Hive. Said one woker:

For this book to land in Hive territory, it cant be coincidence! This is truly a sign of Communism and a sign of Googlie God! Any such an omnipitent being can ensure the bok would end up in our territory, Googlie must be a Communist!

The Hive Officials shall begin reading the book soon, and shall be posting the best quotes that are most apporiate for The Hive in the near future.

Tour of the Hive: Graveyard

I have discovered the Hive does not have any graveyards.

From Kostya's: I have lived in the Hive and survived to tell the tale

In other news. The ceiling of Jamski Residence is unveiled today.

Is there enough material for the next issue to be published? Also I guess that Jamski would like to take over the publication.
