Drone Negotiations

[Kody]

It's been bugging me especially, because I keep waking up after 5 hours of sleep wondering if the drones have replied yet.

I normally get 8 hours sleep. However, recently I get 5 hours sleep. Look at time realise it's too early in the morning get another 1 hour sleep before waking up fully and giving up. Then I check for a message from the drones.

Okay I'm pretty screwed up.

Comrade Kody, we all realize and greatly appreciate how heavy the burden on your shoulder is. By authourity of the deputy chairman, I order you to relax yourself and get 8 hours of sleep. I will personally talk to Comrade Forlani and make sure that she makes a lunch appointment with you some time.

Hrmm I've been thinking about Flubber's post.

I believe the Pirates have either met the Drones or the University......

That post looked prompted by something that happened in the game.

I know I shouldn't outright ask if the Drones have just met the Pirates, but I still want to.

Now that really adds some complexity to the issue. And if you are right, this could explain why it takes the Drones this long to decide ...

[Snowflake]

I say don't ask Drones yet. Just keep our patience. Sometimes we have a better chance to get information if we simply wait and listen, rather than talk and ask questions. Bugging them too much may actally push them away.

[Kody]

Yeah that's true.

Lets keep an eye on both the University and Drones and see if their power graph seems to suddenly change. That would indicate tech trading.

Kody

[Snowflake]

Forgive my ignorance, but where are the turns from Drones lately?

[Snowflake]

Look at Main_Bain's response to Flubber. Looks like the Drones has met the PEACE. Be prepared for war ...

[Kody]

Hrmm will the drones actually be benifited by permi pacting with the pirates? I would have thought they would perfer a tech faction.

Kody

[Snowflake]

Well let's just hope for that they have said anything to the Pirates either. Maybe they are just pondering about their options ...

Looks like I was wrong. It was the University that the Pirates met.

Looks like a pirates meeting happening right now, and it appears they're holding on to the turn at the moment.

Wow the outside world looks like much more exciting isn't it? When can we become excited again?

[Kody]

When we actually meet a faction that doesn't take 3 weeks to commit to something.

It was a strong suspicion before, now that Mr President adjusted his post to be more vague. It's just about a certainty.

I'm almost 100% certain that the University has met the priates.

almost 100% certain ... I am curious about that phrase. I guess it rolls of the tongue better than 98.46% certain.
