Helping Comrade Ali

[Snowflake]

Comrade Ali, to help you start to understand Hive Politics, these following threads/posts are the most important for you to read. You can skip others or leave them till when you are really really bored to read.

The most important figure in the Hive is the GooglieGod:
Read our Bible which is growing everyday: Project Flowering: The Collection of Ancient Hiverian Texts
GooglieGod regards Comrade Ali. Notice the date of the post.

The most important man in the Hive is the Chairman Voltaire:
Read our Constitution, and the Red Book.
Chairman Voltaire regards Comrade Ali. Note the time of the post.

The second most important man in the Hive is deputy chairman Jamski:
Read all issues of Pravda and Jamski & The Sistine Chapel
Jamski regards Comrade Ali. Note the date and time of the post. Then check when the dear deputy chairman was last on line ...

Other important characters:
Comrade Forlani Claire: There are many places you can find her, but for a first glance, you could check out the Comrade Forlani Special Edition.
Comrade Wujiang: Read the IC Story

[Alinestra Covelia]

All right! I shall get reading those as soon as a window comes up. Right now there are a few freelance articles in real life that I have to get finished for the rag-mag but other than that I should be on soon. At least before the weekend.

[Snowflake]

Alright!

If you are really busy, concentrate on the posts, skip all those long threats ... Although I'm kind of fond of the IC story myself. (Not the one sentence one, Bah, there was no intelligence in it at all!)

I am ashamed to say I really haven't heard about Ali (other than the massive praise others have bestowed upon you). I am wondering if you can provide some links to her work for us unenlightened folk out here?

That applies for me too...

Although rumors told me about her famous renaming of military units...

[Snowflake]

The GooglieGod knows it all ...

Now that people are back, I feel the urge for more creative spamming writing!

[Jamski]

Yay!

I'm in

Renaming of units like calling 1-3-1 soldiers: Sexy Crimson Guards?

[Alinestra Covelia]

Aw, shucks you guys. The renaming of units wasn't even my idea - I forget who did it but it was originally done by another Polytoner here.

So as far as I'm aware the turn thread is the only thread that directly affects the game? (This may include a few poll threads, eg War with the Drones poll.)

And does everybody get to play a turn or is it one spokesman playing, with the consensus of the Hive delegation behind them?

Is the save file up for distribution so I can have a look at the status quo?

[Jamski]

Anyone can see the turn, I can get you the password if you don't already know it, but theorectically speaking, only certain people are "authorised" to actually play it. If you want to be one of those people then try and get a government post (not hard to do )

God knows which threads actually directly affect the game, there was a number of interesting Hive Strat threads knocking around...

[Octavian X]

Wait, we've been discussing strategy?

[Jamski]

Well, we tried to... with the usual predictable results.

There is always 'Turn Update'. Is the usual result: spam?
